the fiscal cliff

 W e all have heard the news,we all know the drill.but,within this partisan  bickering,something else could come up.many have unknowingly posted this on there Facebook page.it is an obscure article in the constitution that,during times of extreme distress on our nation,a president can use .this clause,for which many preachers have devoted sermons to,would give a siting president absolute power.with or with out congress.only  one president in the history of these united states has used it.Abraham Lincoln.but,recently,there was a president who,considered using it to suspend elections indefinably.i will not give his name.he used a poor idea to try to use it.he however ,was but this time,one of the most hated presidents in our history.and doing so would have sparked a civil war.now,with this cliff however it could be used.but,should it?well,congress has been split since Obama was elected.even when he did what republicans wanted,they voted it down.in essence,they are getting paid to sit and argue.most recently,senator john McCain,of which i have a lot of respect for,decided to sit and use the media to spin the gop agenda on Benghazi,but in doing so,missed the hearing on Benghazi.which goes directly to my point.the gop has been sitting around arguing for facts they themselves have not agreed with ,sat in front of the media ,and done nothing.all they are doing is getting paid to sit,they say they want to help this nation.but even when they get what they so furiously argued for,they vote against it.so,it is my view,regrettably,that this clause may be the only way to advert a serious,and disastrous fall.of,course,the gop will argue that this was his plan.but,they also tried it.and they are the real reason we are here.so,to the gop ,i at one time was a full backer,voted gop.now,i am ashamed of the party i once liked.either compromise and allow the richest to pay more,or allow the president to do what he must.but,do not keep pushing and daring the rest of the government to bow down to you like your kings.
