Led Zepp was in the White House last week . Maybe he sang a duet of 'Dazed and Confused ' with them . Of course the more conspiracy minded would claim he sang 'The Immigrant Song '.

" Communication Breakdown" might be an appropriate theme for the fiscal cliff talks.

Hello again, Steve:

Frankly, I'm OK with going over the cliff, and STAYING over. The cuts combined with the tax increases WILL fix things rather quickly. What's wrong with that, right wingers?

I'm OK with it too. But 1st the Repubics in the House should vote to extend all the Bush era tax rates ;and blame the President for the eventual tax increase on the "middle class" .
As far as the fiscal cliff... I think it's a bunch of scare tactics like Geithner and Paulson's chicken little act before TARP.

I'm not only OK with it I'm having a little fun watching Dems steer clear of the liberal agenda of tax increases and defense cuts like the plague.

Yesterday Mitch McConnell tried putting Obama's plan up for a vote but Harry Reid objected. How dare he ask for Dems to back their leader's carefully designed "balanced approach".

Hey what's the problem with a 4% tax increase anyway and a little less defense spending. It is like it's 100% either way. You get a movement in interest rates on the mortgage it is going to cost you more, and you get to put a little more into social security and a little less out of medicare. This is panic for panic sake. A little creative accounting and you should be able to keep your income below $200,000
