Deficits and teh Supercommittee: Crummy Media

Hacker Boy (hacking into this disgraceful blog in the interest of truth, justice and the American way, and still strongly denying Skip's disgraceful charge that I am employed by a Rupert Murdoch organization--maybe even the unfair and unbalanced network--to use Skip's usual outraeous hyperbole): "Skip. You SAY you are a lawyer who graduat3ed very high in his class from the University of Texas School of Law at Austin, after graduatinfg with a degree in physics from New Mexico State University. Now, we all know you are SENILE now, but "crummmy"!!!!!! How can you ever have been a lawyer and use a crummy word like that. Don't you think that is the very opposite of professionalism and educated writing?"


Skip: "Ah, poor Hacker Boy. He falls into every trap I set. I agree that 'crummy' is a STRANGE word to use if you are supposedly being serious. Its EXACT meaning is actually rather vague, and it is now more of an insult word than anything else. "That is a crummy thing to say.' It is not a word you hear or see every week. In fact, today is the FIRST time I have seen the word, or heard it, THIS YEAR. Okay. I am somewhat of a hermit. Maybe the word is being REVIVED by "Cccupy" young peole across the country, and we know how the media is the ONLY source of support (outside of left wing Democrats and unions) for "Occupy" cretins. But the word 'crummy' is NOW being used in a FEATURED AP/AT&T/Yahoo headline from the crummy 'journalists' of the crummy Associated Pres. I set out the headline below as I return to the main article:"


"Failure of deficit deal would pose crummy choice"


I just could not make this stuff up. This, of course, is part of the "full court press" of propaganda that the mainstream media is putting out as GOP COWARDS cower in fear. But "crummy"? In the HEADLINE????!!!!!! These people are insane. They are getting more than desperate to FORCE the GOP into a disastrous "deal" (for the country, but even for the GOP, which has already damaged itself greatly by even getting in this position, and then acting like total OWARDS).


No, you would NOT be interested, ansd should not be interested, in the phony "crummy choice" to whcih the AP is referring. The whole "supercommittee" is a FRAUD, and everyone knows it. All that will happen if there is not a "deal" is that Congress will REMOVE teh "automatic cuts" that would supposedly go into effect. As this blog told you long ago, the "trigger" in the SHAM "debt ceiling deal" was always on a gun filled with BLANKS. If the supercommittee comess up with no "deal", it merely means that we will be where ww always should have ben: With Congress and the President dong their JOB (instead of trying to get out of it), even if the result is to send the questin to the voters int he next eleciton (in effect, as the sides campaign on the direction we should go).


But it may not be so obvius to you, but it is even mroe ture, what a "crummy choice" we have made if there IS a supercommittee "deal". It will be a SHAM "deal'. Everyone already concedes taht. It will NOT "cut" ANY SPENDING, ecept with SHAM "cuts" far int he future. Indeed, the result of this "negotiation" is IRRELEVANT to CURRENT DEFICITS--to how much the debt ceiling will have to be raised NEXT TIME. The GOP has already CONCEDED taht "firght" (which they never made). This whole FARCE is over what MIGHT happen about ten years from now (but almost certainly won't, jsut as Congress will CHANGE what is supposed to happen if this "supercommittee" fails--perahps by REDEFINING a "failuare" as a "success". So why are Democrats and their sycophants in the media so DESPERATE to FORCE theGOP cowards into a "deal".


I have long ago told you the answer to that. ANY "deal" is going to be TOUTED by Democrats and the media as "solving" the ISSUE of SPENDING for the NEXT TEN YEARS. Dmocrats and Obama have always looked upon this "ten year plan" (Soviet Unon style) as an OPPORTUNITY to declare that the DEFICIT PROBLEM is OVER--at least in terms of spenidng--for ten years. That "problem" will be declared "solved". But the ONLY "deal" to which the Democrats will "agree" (let the desperate cowards of the GOP get) is a "deal' which accepts the PRINCIPLE that we need to "tax the rich". That is why the MEDIA hyped John Boehner's apparent statement that the GOP would "accept" "revenue increases" as part of a deal". However, it turns out that the GOP (while substantively and politicall STUPID), was not really giving the Democrats the "clear" "victory" on taxes that is their entrie goal here. The GOP was sitll insiting that their "revenue increases" were only part of a TAX REFORM plan, which would have foreced DEMOCRATS to give TAX RATE "breaks" to the RICH. I talked to one of my borhters today--I have four--who is a pharmacist in Denton, Texas (outside of Dallas). He, of course, volunteered that the whole "supercommittee" process is a JOKE. But he alos akked ME about that report that Boehner had AGREED that the GOP would "raise taxes" as part of any "deal". You can see just how politically STUPID the cowards of the GOP have been in openly PUBICIZING how they have supposedly "compromised" to get ANY kind of a "deal". The GOP (Grand Outdated Party) is really doing its best to DESTRYO itself jsut when it should be winning everything in sight.


You should "get it" by now. The Democrats--following th emodus operandi that they, AND establishment GOP members have "perfected" in many "fights" over a LONG periond of time--expect that the GOP members will agree to a LAST MINUTE SHAM DEAL in order to avoid "blame" for FAIURE (a failure Democrats and Obama are fully willing to let happen to create a "campaign issue"). What the left wing, including the media, is counting on is that the GOP will be so anxiouis to accept PRIASIE for any "deal" (although not "praise" for the GOP), rather than take "blame" for faiure to arrive at a deal, that the GOP will accept ALMOST ANYTHING. The idea is that the GOP will believe that the MEDIA will not SCRUTINIZE the FRAUD of any "deal" on spending, but will simply trumpet that we have been "saved" by the deal. The stock market will go up. It will appear that "everyone" is "hapy". And it will all be a SHAM (as the "debt ceiling deal" and the "budget deal" have been this year alone). The media, and other left wing Democrats, will silently believe that they have again been vindicated in the idea that BLACKMAIL WORKDS. They belive that they can SNOW the PUBLIC, and that the GOP is too AFRAID of that to call their bluff. In this case, I am 100% certain that GOP faiure to call their bluff will mean the ultimate DESTURCTION of the GOP (and not because of peopole like me, who have already abandoned the GOP for god). You might remember what happened to Goerge Bush 41, and "read my lips".


This is because ANY deal to which Democrats agree (unless it is a total fraud that just avoids the "tgrigger", and otherwise obviously does noting) will at least allow DEMOCRATS and the MEDIA to claim that the GOP ACCEPTED the IDEA that the "rich" have to pay MORE of a "fair share" of taxes. Thre will be NO real "spending cuts'. But Democrats and the media fully intend to declare that the principle has been ESTABLISHED that we should look to the "rich" whenver we need more money, because the "issue' of SPENDING ("sacrifices" by the non-rich) willl have already been settled by whatever ten-year "deal" is arrived at. Democrats and the media already want this next election to be about CLASS WARFARE, and not spending. They will NOT accept a "deal' that does not advance that goal, although COWARDLY members of the GOP have utterly failed to make that point. And, as of tonight--as DEMOCRATS are telling the American peole that no deal which failes to accept more taxes for the "rich" is acceptable--the GOP is STILL talking like they deseperately want a deal at any cots. What is SAD is that the cowards of the GOP seem to think that this is a good POLITICAL move for them, because peole will "blame" DEMOCRATS for a faiure. Any party that delusional does not deserve to exist, and will not exist for long if they actually go for a deal that is an obvious BETRAYAL. Snce ANY deal that Democrats will go for will be an obvious betrayal, the GOP is tonight the group facing the "crummy choic" of their own making. That is the "choice' of obvious BETRAYAL of people who voted for them, or apparent betrayal of those "independents" who the GOP have PROMISED (in effect) a deal at almost any cost. NO member of the GOP--as distinguished from Democrats saing so at almost every opportunity--has made the case that NO DEAL is much better for the country than a sham deal that makes an economic recovery (not to metninon spending contorl) impossible.


"A coward dies a thousand times; but a brave man dies but once." The GOP is in the process of dying a thousand deaths, and I refuse to be a part of it. The ONLY people with as low an "approval rating" as Congress are "JOURNALISTS". Yet, the GOP appears AFRAID of those people. That is one rason that Newt Gingrich has risen in the polls (misleading and evil as polls are). He at least APPEARS not to be afraid of the media. My own fear is that the word "appears" is correct here. But I just can't get over my almost lifelong observation of Newt, and how you really can't rely on a word he says. But he is clearly SMARTER than your average GOP dolt out there., and able to APPEAR not to be a coward.


P.S. No proofreading or spell checkng (bad eyesight)--which means, by the way, that these articles canot be REVISED or HONED after I write them. You get the FIRST version, right off of the top of my head, bad typing and all. There was once a time where I at least read over an article before I posted it, even if my proofreading wsa never that good. That is no longer possible (without an incredible expendiutre of time and agony). Therefore, I admire those of you who TRY to read these articles, even if there are not that many of you. As a person wholse bad eyesight makes me GUESS at words I am trying to read, I can't imagine how bad it would be to try to read someone else who posts articleslike I am posting, with no proofrreading. I could not do it, whihc is the reason I do not make any futile attmept to proofread these articles. Yes, as I have previously said, IF I were getting PAID< I would figure out a way to get it done. As I am not, this is what you will continue to get (the compensation being that the SUBSTANCE of what you get here has insight you will get nowhere else, if you can solve the word puzzle you are being given at no extra charge).
