Time for all in control of the federal government to come up with a reasonable compromise to avoid the fiscal cliff, while at the same time reducing federal deficits. THAT is what it is time for!!!
The cartoon makes me think of all of the families whose backs are against the wall, or as the cartoon shows it, the abyss. But tomorrow, in homes all over America, people are going to make the best meals they can with the resources they have and will sit down with family and say thanks over what might just be turkey tv dinners, or spam and eggs. A mother and/or father will smile at their children and make the best of what they have. For those people, for those more fortunate, and for all of my neighbors here on Gocomics comment pages…I wish you all, a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. Thankfully, C.
you got it wrong it is the people that brought that table and candle stick holders, table cloth and table that are made in china that are the problem adn the people that do not vote
Yes indeed, they need to try another 33 times. . By then the fiscal cliff will have passed while they were focused on the important item. . Obstruction.
Mix a snifter of Bill Mauldin, a dash of Jeff McNelly and a very large dollop of common sense, and you begin to get an idea of Lisa Benson’s considerable talent.

" Compromise "? Is that like when you want the other guy to eat a crap sandwich and they want steak, so you agree to half and half?

It is not a cliff, just a downhill slope.

Notice the donkey actively giving thanks, with the elephant quietly praying. Maybe he is getting ready to push the table.

Indeed! Repealing Obamacare would be a good first step AWAY from the Fiscal Cliff. Wonder if any of the “Masterminds” in Washington will see that?

^ Agreed. Plus, if we pass laws to outlaw abortion and gay marriage, everything will be fine again.
