Video: “On the first day of Christmas, the liberals gave to me…”
The NSRC sends along its latest holiday video, which ends: “If you thought our singing was bad . . .Just wait until the Democrats get their hands on your paycheck next year.”
The Hill reports on the stalemate:
Congress has been brought to a grinding halt by hardening Democratic and Republican stances on taxes and spending just days before lawmakers begin leaving Washington for Christmas and New Year’s.
The two sides are, in some cases, refusing even to speak to each other about the massive omnibus and an Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) bill.
Senate Republicans refused to meet Democrats Tuesday on spending and House Democrats rejected the Senate’s AMT “patch,” preparing a new version paid for with corporate tax increases.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) countered the majority’s plans with a proposal that would require Democrats to accept virtually all of President Bush’s demands on spending.
McConnell demanded that Democrats also provide $70 billion for the war with no strings attached.
Frustration boiled over in the Senate, where Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Bush “is impossible — and has been for seven years — to deal with.”
Reid sought to portray senior White House adviser Ed Gillespie as an incarnation of Karl Rove and a mastermind of intransigence.

Merry Christmas, Dems!
When Dingy Harry says you’re “impossible to deal with,” you must be doing something correctly…
That song would be cute if it were not so dern scarry!
Heading out for vacation, before the job is done - if Congress played by the same rules as most companies in the private sector, most of these clowns would be unemployed before they even qualified for vacation time.
My ears. My poor poor ears
Good lyrics, but those girls (and guys) can’t sing.
oh if they only included a “Turd Burpin Harry” in the chorus.
Frustrated? Pack up and leave.
Bush’s fault - check
Reid reneged on his promise to not withhold funding for the troops - check.
We are watching you. When you no longer have Bush to hide behind what then Dingy Harry?
A grinding halt? Is the implication that Congress usually acts expeditiously? That’s kind of like saying my lawn’s growth came to a grinding halt after the first frost.
I’m not sure which is scarier; the singing or the liberals gifts.
It probably sounded like:
“Impoth-th-th-th-ible, jutht impoth-th-th-th-ible. I want to sthtamp my little heels, he makeths me tho mad.”
11% approval, BWAAHAAAHAAA!
They will hide behind Bush long after he is out of office.
Democrats are outstanding at offering excuses in lieu of taking responsibility for their actions, no matter how ludicrous those excuses might be.
I don’t think you can tell a Democrat “Merry Christmas”. I think you have to tell them “happy holidays” or something that has no reference to Christianity. Otherwise, you’re forcing your bigoted, close-minded beliefs on them.

True but: OUCH!
HAHAHHHAAAHHAAAHAHHAHHA
I thought you had to make some kind of progress before you could come to a grinding halt.
Bah! Details, details..
the election of 2006. I hope we learned our lesson.
I cannot take seriously the word of a man whose job performance rating is 11%. 89% of my fellow Americans agree.
They just took 2 weeks off at Thanksgiving, (while pretending to be in session in order to prevent Bush from making any recess appointments.)Now they are preparing for Christmas vacation, and they still haven’t passed any spending bills. Yet every day they scream that the new Iraqi Government is moving to Slowly! What a bunch of jack**ses!
A reference to funding our troops no doubt.
I prefer the term A** Clowns. Merry Christmas everyone!
That’s good one gregorystephens, it’s right up there with crapweasels.
Merry Christmas to you!
You mean “No-Talent A**clowns”, right?
You guys are just being IC Internet Correct I know what you really mean.
Yeah, at least normal A**clowns can juggle. Not to mention the fact that they do more for the environment. They can fit like 30 of those guys in one car. That’s one heckuva car pool.
Democrats.Yoda
Raise your damn taxes they will.
I wish you ALL would STOP insulting A_ _ clowns!
This is what they use.
AC/TP
As the Union Representative of the International Order of A( )) Clowns, I have a problem with all these attacks. We’re an honorable group of people. We just happen to be greatly misunderstood.
I was for A**clowns before I was against them.
Any time someone disagrees with, contradicts, questions, or argues with liberals and their ideologies they’re “impossible to deal with”.
It’s the same old hat.
Keep your dirty hands off my paycheck, please.
I am building a museum of the Most Valuable A _ _ Clowns right next to the site of the future museum for Woodstock.
P.S. Waiting on government funding. Papa needs some pork!
Looks like the New Year promises to screw us again on the AMT as we used to say in my active duty days B.O.H.I.C.A.

The do nothing Congress continues to do nothing. Merry Christmas everyone! Happy Hanukah to our Jewish friends!
This thread has really degenerated. <ROFL> Considering the subjects of the thread I suppose degenerates are the subject of the day.
Shouldn’t we be pushing for laws to protect the civil rights of A**Clowns? They should definitely be covered under hate-crime legislation!
Taze the assclowns
AJ - I don’t do the food thingy - lay off my “taze” thingy!
A rhetorical question:
Can we call this Wednesday stupid and roll with it? LOL
All in favor - aye!
My father wanted to inspire me to great heights. So, he named me after a famous mountain climbing a**clown. He was the first to climb Mt. Everest in a rainbow wig and big floppy shoes. Turns out that I was born before this feat took place, but I won’t let facts stand in my way.
gregorystephens
Sounds like I might have my first inductee!
What do AClowns eat?
Crapcakes
Please don’t insult the poor A** Clowns.
What do ya get when ya cross a AClown and a sombrero?
A__Hat
I am curious to know how many takes were needed before they got this right. Some of the ppl in the vid look like they are about to crack up in the middle of the production.
What do ya get when ya cross a AClown and an IX?
A__ ‘n nine
As I posted ~several weeks ago…if you’d like a well done song that’s dead on the mark, as far as illustrating our out-of-control tax situation goes, check out “Taxman” by the Beatles.
The song may be ~40 years old, but it can’t be topped.
Harry Reid is a one trick pony - his continued failure is always someone else’s fault - his successes are unethical, illegal or immoral. Being that it is the Christmas season and I am filled with the milk of human kindness this time of year, I won’t say what I really think about him.
But Santa’s reindeer are not so constrained and if they poop down Harry’s chimney I’m not going to feel bad about it.
That’s interesting. I didn’t know liberals owned the oil companies and passed Bush’s budget. And liberals hate congress more than anyone, since they have not acted on what the libs consider the mandate of the 2006 elections- ending the war.
I’m with pgtips (#5). Although we had a real singer with the fifth day. Do you think the multiple clashing keys was on purpose?
And on the second–third?–thread. I think that is a fine place for Santa’s reindeer to go–they’ve gotta go somewhere, and this way we protect the children.
