White House Caves, Will Extend Bush Tax Cuts

Any Republican attempt to repeal health care reform legislation won’t make it past President Obama’s veto pen, top adviser David Axelrod tells the Huffington Post. The president is willing to give ground in other areas and is prepared to accept an across-the-board continuation of Bush-era tax cuts even for the wealthiest taxpayers, according to Axelrod. “We have to deal with the world as we find it—the world of what it takes to get this done,” he said.

He indicated it was the only way that middle-class taxpayers would be able to maintain their cuts. Axelrod says the administration is willing to work with politicians willing to improve health care legislation but not with those intent on destroying it. He says the president has called every Republican senator-elect and many of the incoming House lawmakers—more than 100 calls in all. Axelrod, a former political reporter, says the Tea Party movement marks a “fascinating time in our history.” He believes Obama may be able to work with the movement on issues like ending earmarks and withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Yeah right, Alxlerod! Healthcare?  Like we believe anymore you guys got the effing cajones to stand up.

UPDATE:

Looks like somebody up there caught a whiff of the Donkey Doo they stepped in!

Axelrod: No, We Won’t Cave on Tax Cuts

Democrats won’t compromise their position on the Bush tax cuts, David Axelrod said today, hastily retreating from aHuffington Post article in which he said they would. “We’re willing to discuss how we move forward,” he wrote in an email to theNational Journal, “but we believe that it’s imperative to extend the tax cut for the middle class, and don’t believe we can afford a permanent extension of tax cuts for the wealthy.”

Bi-racial… Y’er A**

Playa Play-on… Indeed.

Nature’s Latest Creation – the Zedonk

This week, the Chestatee Wildlife Preserve in north Georgia, United States, welcomed the first zebra-donkey hybrid in America. The “zedonk” has a donkey for a mother and a zebra stallion for a father and it is quite a rare animal.

The animal is a mix between a zebra and donkey. With black stripes prominently displayed on her legs and face, her zebra heritage is readily apparent, but her slender face and spindly legs are more donkey-like.

Preserve keepers were rather surprised when the new “baby” was born. But contrary to what people might think, this is not the first time this has happened in the world. Apparently in 2005, a zebra gave birth to a zedonk in Barbados, and three zedonks were born in a European zoo, back in the 1970s, from a female donkey.

White tigers are more of our calling card, but this is one of the most unique animals that has ever been born here,” C.W. Wathen, the preserve’s general manager and founder said. “The animals have been running (in the fields) together for more than 40 years, but this is the first time that this has happened here. We never suspected that they (had mated), so it was quite a surprise when the zedonk was born.”
