Oh wow. Just did a quick read through it. Didn't know that the Christian Science Monitor had something to do with it....seems obvious in retrospect. Man I'm dumb. xD

Theres a lot of naturalist movement things going on. Steve jobs went months without actually treating his cancer after he found out he had it because he wanted to try "natural" remedy's. by the time that he went in for surgery on it it had already spread.
Its not really a christian thing. the medical benefits of prayer have been explored from a psychological standpoint and show some benefits but trying to argue the benefits of psychological things can get pretty werid and I don't do that.
And the democrats are going to win the debt debate. taxes are going up on the rich one way or the other. Info came out recently that said that if a deal isn't reached obama is going to go on the campaign trail again in republican districts to get them to convince their representatives to not raise taxes on them. Its literally going to be the easiest slam dunk sense "legitimate rape".

Steve Jobs' biography also includes that he considered not going in for earlier cancer treatment the biggest mistake in his life and self-destructive stubbornness, if I remember correctly.

let's not ruin a good word. what he did is superstition, it's not natural or naturalism.

Well that, and the fact that it qualifies the statement by saying "when the proceeds are used to finance additional government spending." Nobody's suggesting using the tax raise for additional government spending; simply to pay for current (or even less) government spending. So it's not clear that the statement even applies to this circumstance.
Most important of all, yes, it might hurt the economy in the "long run". But considering that the "fiscal cliff" is widely considered "not a good thing," and the Republican plan doesn't really do as much to balance the budget, I'm willing to take the economy growing a bit slower.

Um, yes. It's called "winning an election." Obama has popular support on his side. Despite the economy being fairly crap, despite the billions spent against him by wealthy businessmen, despite all that... he still won. Strongly. He could have lost Florida, Ohio, and Virginia and still won.
The people have weighed in, both in the Presidential race and in Congress. They like the Democrats plans better than the Republicans.
Why should the Democrats have to yield so much to the Republicans? They didn't earn the public's trust. They didn't earn the public's support. They didn't earn the public's vote.

He's saying that, because the stalemate would hurt them, any attempt at brinksmanship on their part would be a bluff. So simply force them to go all in. They aren't willing to, so they will fold.

Well, if the Republican backers continue to push for things like the Bush tax cuts (which were disastrous for the country's long term health), then yes. It may make more sense to hurt Republican backers even if it dampens the overall economic outlook for a few years, especially since the Republican backers will lobby like hell for that not to happen anyway.
I'm not sure I agree with his assessment regarding the fiscal cliff, but it's not contradictory with his overall views that Republicans holding the primary power over national economic policy is going to be awful for the economy.

Only 24 states went for Romney, the others would obviously be against secession. And even of those 24, only the most die-hard might actually go through with it, particularly after most of them are shown how much money they get from the federal government versus how much they pay. A year ago there was a pretty serious movement from some counties in CA that wanted to leave and form their own state... that got stopped dead in its tracks when they looked at how much money they were getting from the state government.

Goodness, it looks like they'll have to respond to that one.
Then again I didn't vote. I surely didn't want Romney but I couldn't vote for Obama and live with myself due to a long, long story that nobody wants to hear. Nihi.
