   Obama should immediately offer to keep tax cuts for the lower 99.5% and see what the GOP says.

   Otherwise, they will say, “See, we told you Obama would raise your taxes.”

   Venn, when the Republicans say “Obama will raise your taxes,” the “your” they’re talking to isn’t us.

   I wonder if Grover will take credit for the record low approval rate of Congress.

   You just knew this hit piece would commence to coincide with the planned failure of the joint committee on the deficit.

   Grover, love him or hate him, is honest. That quality is sorely lacking within our elected leaders, especially President Obama. History may well place him as the worst American President since Jefferson Davis.

   Congress is a joke, too, but IMO the buck stops at the top. Not with ‘ol Grover.

   Just what’s needed the combining of religious zealotry and politics.

   So much for 1 man 1 vote.
