(27,787 posts)... that the President WANTED these cuts. Not just that he was willing, but he WANTED these cuts. Right?
They were very very SURE too. In fact, given the number of OPs they wrote, they felt far more SURE than I ever have.
But, I have been willing to state my position, clearly, and repeatedly when they have knee-jerked forward with their prediction.
We will ultimately know if I was right by the day Obama leaves office. And as things stand now, my position ... NOT HAPPENING ... is the far more likely outcome. Don't you agree?
Now if you want to run in circles screaming along with the hair on fire club, fine.
Oh as for the table ... so let's say Obama, tomorrow says "totally off the table" ... what stops him from, in a year or so saying ... "Ok, back on the table"?????
I mean is that all you need, if he says "Off the table" then you trust him. I doubt it. Because putting it BACK on the table takes about 5 words.
That entire line "its on the table" is nonsense.
