Obama needs a deal that will get him past the 2012 election, and he would like to see Republicans break their "Read my lips, no new taxes" pledge ... again. Debt-ceiling talks hit brick wall as President Obama, GOP trade jabs If the Republicans fall for this one they are stupider than Charlie Brown.

Is picking a fight in a restaurant a good idea?  They will fight in the restaurants, they will fight on the front lawns ….

There is a disturbing tendency recently for liberals upset with non-liberal politicians to take the fight to places where the fight should not be taken.

A restaurant is one such place. Are we now to confront politicians with whom we disagree every time they go out to eat?...

We see this with increasing frequency, as SEIU sends protesters to the homes of politicians, immigration activists attempt to intimidate neighbors of an Attorney General, and high level Democrats threaten to punch Republican politicians. The mobs in Wisconsin were the embodiment of this “get in their face” attitude, the fulfillment of Obama’s suggestion during the 2008 that people get in their neighbors’ faces.
