… Barack Obama huddles Tuesday with top labor union and progressive group leaders to get their take on the best way to handle the looming “fiscal cliff”











All of those people our president is consulting with about over the cliff can go over the cliff
good one William!
I read this article you wrote and I note that you said, “Notice there aren’t any folks from the congress among the group deciding to take America over the financial cliff.”
Just after that, you cite another article which says in part – - -”—and ahead of talks on Friday with top Democratic and Republican congressional leaders – - -”
So I guess the president is meeting with everyone including top Democratic and Republican conghressional leaders after all, right?
How convenient to miss so obvious a point!
I wonder why anyone might forget to include this little detail?
For someone who claims to pay attention to detail you surely missed again the members of the Congress won’t be among those groups. How convenient for you to pick out something not there and miss the entire point of the piece. Take a nap John.
Likewise, I am sure!
