My significant other is much, much older than I am. She had cancer previously and chemotherapy after surgery. An exam reveàled an abnormality. Her doctor will give her another exam tomorrow morning. We are both worried. She has had a hard life. She just started her own floral shop. Wish us good news tomorrow.

I have been in favor of minting the trillion dollar coin. However, President Obama's press conference helped elucidate why that might not ultimately be the best choice.

The best that we can hope for appears to be a government shutdown. I am not sanguine as to the President's willingness to follow through on his commitment to not negotiate over the debt ceiling. We cannot allow hostage taking to continue. I am quite worried that the President will try to avoid the government shutdown or default by negotiating over the debt ceiling . The saving grace is that the most he will offer them is the chained CPI cut ( which I oppose for obvious reasons). That will not be enough to entice republicans to raise the debt ceiling.

So, the next battle is about to start. Republicans are saying that they are done raising taxes and that the only thing that is left is to gut Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
They are saying that they will hold use the debt ceiling to attempt to hold us hostage. They are also saying that they will use the sequester cuts to attempt to hold us hostage.
We must fight them tooth and nail on this.

Many progressives here argue that because we passed the Senate's fiscal cliff bill, we have lost leverage. They argue, therefore, that we will gut Medicare and Social Security.

Let's consider that, shall we ?

If this bill passes from the House unamended (ie as it passed the Senate), we will have lost all leverage.

So, what will happen ?

Breaking News: Eric Cantor has said that he cannot support the bill because there are not enough spending cuts. The bill won't come up for a vote without amendments.

More info to come. This was per MSNBC. I am actually surprised. A bill that passed 89 to 8 in the Senate was not good enough for the Republican leadership to put up for a vote. They broke their promise that if a bill passed the Senate, then it would get a vote in the House. The President and the Senate called their bluff.

I am not saying that this was President Obama's intention. However, the fiscal cliff statement that the President just made appears to have turned off the House republicans enough to make this deal impossible.
