******************************
Karl: good morning - this
is a
special edition of the
show because
tomorrow the USA could
fall off a cliff,
stock markets around the
world are crashing
and so George
Stephanopoulos is on vacation
Karl: Senators do we have
a deal?
Schumer: we're eyeball to
eyeball –
it's kind of disgusting
really
Jon Kyl: if we go over the
articifial cliff
created by Congress it
could destroy
the country forever
Karl: what will the
non-existent deal look like?
Schumer: we are bravely
going to avoiding
rasing taxes on the middle
class and
slashing defense spending
Karl: fascinating
Schumer: also raise taxes
on rich people
and give ourselves a raise
of course
Karl: but the Wall Street
Journal told me
this doesn't do anything
good!
Kyl: jonathan karl you are
so right –
Obama is a terrible big
spender
Schumer: not fair –
Obama offered to cut spending
and John Boehner screwed
around for a week
trying to curry favor with
the Tea Party
Karl: [ jumping up and
down in his seat ]
but Senator Schumer you
wanted to raise
taxes only on
millionaires!
Schumer: because I
represent people who
make a lot of money but
pay $2,000 a month
for 300 square feet
dumbass
Karl: you sound like
Senator Kyl
Schumer: no I actually
make sense
Karl: but the small
businesses!
Kyl: and the little women!
Karl: I love the GOP but
don't you have
to compromise since the
taxes go up anyway?
Kyl: when you raise taxes
on corporations
you really raise them on
women and poor
people and old people
Schumer: the estate tax
affects a few dozen families
Karl: aren't you
embarressed that you
disagree politically
instead of all getting
along and coming together
and drinking
coffee and whiskey
together?
Schumer: um jonathan the
Tea Party are fucking crazy
Kyl: not fair – the GOP
responsibly
wants to destroy Medicare
Karl: Senator why not
raise taxes
on poor people so they
will finally
see how wonderful
Republicans are?
Kyl: that is a good point
but remember people are very stupid
Schumer: ok let's not
raise taxes on poor people then
Kyl: no I don't like those
lazy fuckers
Karl: can we make a deal
or not?
Kyl: yes if the bill
provides chocolates and mints
on the pillows of every
billionaire
[ break ]
Van Hollen: John Boehner
has totally lost control
Karl: what can Democrats
vote for
Van Hollen: higher taxes
for the rich
Labrador: Democrats won't
support John Boehner!
Van Hollen: how about an
up or down
vote on the Democrat's
plan?
Karl: even Nancy Pelosi
suggested raising
taxes only on $1 million
per year
Van Hollen: try getting
the GOP to vote even for that
Labrador: hell no!
Karl: that's pretty
extreme
Labrador: raising taxes on
rich people is
unacceptable without
slashing spending
Karl: the GOP won't
support John Boehner now either
Labrador: true
Karl: Krauthammer says
Obama has
skillfully smashed the
Republicans
Labrador: he's right –
Obama has divided the
GOP by pitting the crazies
against the bought-and-paid for
Karl: that's quite a
divide
Labrador: Democrats are
like bank robbers
since they spend money
which
never happened before 2009
Karl: you are not willing
to compromise at all
Labrador: Ronald Reagan
was a big spending liberal!
Karl: thanks for coming
guys
