12.31.12: President Obama Makes Statement On The Fiscal Cliff + Update
*Vote not likely to happen Monday. Headed over the "fiscal cliff".
Via L.A. Times:
WASHINGTON – Details of the emerging “fiscal cliff” deal ricocheted through the Capitol on Monday, appearing to please almost no one from either political party, as President Obama urged negotiators toward a conclusion.
A House vote appears unlikely on Monday, even if a deal is finished. The contours of the agreement between Vice President Joe Biden and the Republican leader of the Senate, Mitch McConnell, put into sharp focus the compromises that need to be stomached if a deal was to be struck. The outcome remained uncertain as the country prepared to go off the “fiscal cliff.”
Even if agreement could be reached to have a Senate vote before the midnight deadline, when taxes on all Americans would rise if nothing was done, Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) was unlikely to call a vote in the House until Tuesday. “We are very, very close,” said an upbeat McConnell on the Senate floor after Obama spoke on the White House grounds and called on the country to urge lawmakers to finish. “We can do this.”
The emerging deal would raise taxes on income and investments for wealthier Americans – those households making more than $450,000 a year or individuals earning more than $400,000– although the two sides remain at odds over the automatic spending cuts that make up part of the “fiscal cliff.” McConnell and Biden continued talking throughout the afternoon
Monday, as lawmakers prepared to hunker down for a long New Year’s Eve under the dome. A final deal could be voted on first by the Senate, possibly late Monday. One result became increasingly clear, though: With many issues still unresolved, Washington was poised to continue the partisan budget battles that have defined recent years well into 2013. As the sun began to set over the capital on a chilly winter day, rank-and-file lawmakers, both Democrats and Republicans, bristled at what they were being asked to accept.
The office of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the hardscrabble Nevada deal-maker who stepped aside for Biden to negotiate with McConnell, offered a view of the level of concern. A revolving door of lawmakers came and went throughout the day. Liberal Democrats objected that the White House was ceding too much to Republican demands and missing the opportunity for a broader budget deal.
Conservative Republicans were upset at being asked to raise tax rates without reducing the deficit with steep cuts. “Republicans should kill the compromise if there are no spending cuts,” said Erick Erikson, the conservative founder of the influential Red State blog, in a tweet. Both parties were under enormous pressure from their political bases not to give in to what some, including Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), a liberal leader, characterized as simply a “bad deal.”
More than $660 billion in revenue would be raised – far less than the target Obama first set in talks with congressional leaders. The president sought $1.6 trillion in new revenue from a large deficit-reduction package, and at least $800 billion in earlier talks with Republicans over a deal on tax increases.
The agreement would set the top tax rates at 39.6% for income above $450,000 for households and $400,000 for individuals, which is a narrower definition of who is wealthy than Obama once sought, according to a source who was not authorized to discuss the negotiations. The president won reelection campaigning on asking those who earn above $250,000 to contribute more in taxes. Investment income tax rates would also rise for those higher-income households, from the historic low 15% rate on capital gains and dividends to a new 20% rate.
The president had sought to tax dividends at the same rate as ordinary income, and his earlier offer sought to initiate those taxes at the lower $250,000 income threshold. The estate tax, which has been a key sticking point throughout the weekend of negotiations, appears to have been settled. The agreement splits the difference, setting the new rate at 40% on estates valued at more than $5 million – a compromise between today’s 35% rate and the 45% rate Democrats sought on estates of $3.5 million or more.
Americans would benefit from an extension of long-term unemployment benefits, which expired over the weekend, for one full year. One area that hewed closer to Democratic priorities was Obama’s proposal to reinstate the phaseout of personal exemption tax credits and itemized deductions on upper-income households. They had been in place before the George W. Bush-era tax cuts began in 2001, but were done away with over the past decade and would fully expire, with the rest of the tax breaks, on New Year’s Eve.

Congrats: Brandy Engaged To Ryan Press + New Music: 'How High' By Brandy
Congrats to Brandy who became engaged over the Christmas holiday. Additional deets below.
Via US Weekly:
Brandy will ring in the new year with a ring on her finger!
The "Put It Down" singer, 33, is engaged to Ryan Press, her rep confirms to Us Weekly. According to an insider, "They are thrilled and happy and Brandy feels this is so right." Prior to accepting Press' proposal, Brandy had openly expressed her desire to marry the music executive. "I keep hearing about a ring. People keep calling me, hinting to me about it, but I don't know," she told Sister2Sister magazine in August. "I'm going to be patient and let it happen and just let it be. . . I guess it will happen when it's the right time."
That same month, the singer spoke to Us about how Press had restored her faith in men. "I had given up on love a long time ago. It just didn't seem to work for me, so I was single for a very long time," the Moesha star said. "I stopped looking for love and then I ran into my boyfriend." She continued, "He just loves me for who I am. I don't have to camouflage anything for him or put on a mask. I can completely be myself and he loves me so much and I love him just the way he is, too."
This will be the first marriage for the "Put It Down" singer, who has a 10-year-old daughter, Sy'rai, with ex Robert Smith. Brandy released her sixth studio album, Two Eleven, in October, and she currently stars in BET's hit comedy The Game. She next appears in Tyler Perry's Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor. The drama, arriving in theaters March 29, 2013, also stars Jurnee Smollett, Robbie Jones, Kim Kardashian, Jerry Stiller and Vanessa Williams.
Brandy tweeted a new song out on Christmas Day for her fans, titled 'How High'.

Lawrence O'Donnell Reacts To N.R.A CEO Wayne LaPierre's Press Conference + George H.W. Bush's Resignation Letter To N.R.A From 1995
Days after the press conference, the resignation letter former President George H.W. Bush sent to the NRA in the 90's resurfaced on the web. Read the letter in full below.
Via NY Times:
Letter of Resignation Sent By Bush to Rifle Association [Published: May 11, 1995]
May 3, 1995
Dear Mr. Washington,
I was outraged when, even in the wake of the Oklahoma City tragedy, Mr. Wayne LaPierre, executive vice president of N.R.A., defended his attack on federal agents as "jack-booted thugs." To attack Secret Service agents or A.T.F. people or any government law enforcement people as "wearing Nazi bucket helmets and black storm trooper uniforms" wanting to "attack law abiding citizens" is a vicious slander on good people.
Al Whicher, who served on my [ United States Secret Service ] detail when I was Vice President and President, was killed in Oklahoma City. He was no Nazi. He was a kind man, a loving parent, a man dedicated to serving his country -- and serve it well he did. In 1993, I attended the wake for A.T.F. agent Steve Willis, another dedicated officer who did his duty. I can assure you that this honorable man, killed by weird cultists, was no Nazi.
John Magaw, who used to head the U.S.S.S. and now heads A.T.F., is one of the most principled, decent men I have ever known. He would be the last to condone the kind of illegal behavior your ugly letter charges. The same is true for the F.B.I.'s able Director Louis Freeh. I appointed Mr. Freeh to the Federal Bench. His integrity and honor are beyond question. Both John Magaw and Judge Freeh were in office when I was President. They both now serve in the current administration. They both have badges. Neither of them would ever give the government's "go ahead to harass, intimidate, even murder law abiding citizens." (Your words) I am a gun owner and an avid hunter.
Over the years I have agreed with most of N.R.A.'s objectives, particularly your educational and training efforts, and your fundamental stance in favor of owning guns. However, your broadside against Federal agents deeply offends my own sense of decency and honor; and it offends my concept of service to country. It indirectly slanders a wide array of government law enforcement officials, who are out there, day and night, laying their lives on the line for all of us.
You have not repudiated Mr. LaPierre's unwarranted attack. Therefore, I resign as a Life Member of N.R.A., said resignation to be effective upon your receipt of this letter.
Please remove my name from your membership list. Sincerely,
[ signed ] George Bush

A&E's highly anticipated new show BATES MOTEL has Hitchcock fans all abuzz. Every since it was announced the network would be creating the show around iconic director Alfred Hitchcock's equally iconic film PSYCHO, excitement has been building for the new show.

Via FearNet:
Ready for your first good look at A&E's upcoming series 'Bates Motel'?Ever since the project was announced, it's been met with much scrutiny and doubt, especially among die-hard Psycho fans and Hitchcock enthusiasts.
But when you've got one of the producers of 'Lost' (Carlton Cuse) and one of the writers of 'Friday Night Lights' (Kerry Ehrin), not to mention the inspired casting of Vera Farmiga (as Mother) and Freddie Highmore (as Norman Bates), well then you've got us intrigued.
The teasers we got a few weeks back were interesting, but now this trailer/making-of featurette really gives us a better look at what to expect from this modern interpretation inspired by 'Psycho'. And it's looking good so far!
With the success of such shows as American Horror Story and The Walking Dead, I think it's time that Norman Bates got his due. What do you guys think?

Books [An Interesting Parody]: FIFTY SHADES OF JUNGLE FEVER (The Ghetto Girl Romance Quadrilogy) [Book One] By L.V. Lewis
Synopsis:
FIFTY SHADES OF GREY to the second power meets Keisha and Jada from the Block.
If you've wondered how an ethnic girl from the hood might've handled an arrangement with an experienced white Dominant, this is your book. If you'd like to see the sexiest TWIN DOMS in a contemporary romance series in interracial relationships, this is most definitely your book.
Aspiring recording studio owners, Keisha Beale and Jada Jameson, score a rare meeting with venture capitalist Tristan White, and are thrust into a world beyond their wildest imaginations. Street-wise Keisha is startled to realize she wants this rich white man, despite the certainty that he is out of her league. Unable to resist Keisha's sassy, irreverent, and fiercely independent spirit, Tristan knew from day one he wanted her, too--as his first African American submissive.
Upper Class Jada of the Springfield Jamesons has traveled in almost the same circles as the White brothers, and has had a secret crush on Nathan White, the point guard for the Chicago Bulls, for quite some time. Both brothers have succumbed to jungle fever, and want a little coffee in their cream.
Lured by Tristan White and his offer of fronting the capital for her business in exchange for kinky sex, Keisha finds herself with no other option. Keisha is also tortured by a demons from her past, and her inability to come to terms with them threatens to undermine the future of her business and her tumultuous, unconventional relationship with Tristan White.
Erotic, amusing, and in places hilarious, the Ghetto Girl Erotica Trilogy is a parody with a unique take on a Fifty Shades-type story that will take you even further into the BDSM world, and promises to make the vanilla original Fifty Shades Blacker.
The first two books focus on Keisha and Tristan's romance, and the final two focus on Jada and Nathan's.
Happy Reading!

SCANDAL Season 2 - Episode 8 'Happy Birthday, Mr. President' Full Episode + Highlights + Afterbuzz TV Recap + Epi 9 Sneak Peek!
Goodness this show has my emotions going all over the place! Luv it!
Okay so by now like seriously if you're not watching ABC's SCANDAL, you're missing a scrumptiously dynamic ensemble of pure television excellence.
At this point, universities should consider having a course titled 'Scandalology', and have it taught as an elective.
It's just that good on every level.
This week's episode was full of suspense, intrigue, trauma, hella hot OLITZ romance, revelations, shocking twists and the constant edge of your seat drama that SCANDAL does better than any other show.
At the end, your mouth is left hanging open and you realize that you are stunned for a second, and then you breathe and began to process what you just witnessed, knowing full well that all is not what it seems.
Of course for the hardcore SCANDAL fans, a.k.a. GLADIATORS, we poured another glass of wine, grabbed the remote control and watched it again via the DVR. *Sighs*
I have to say just bravo to the entire cast, crew and writers. They bring it EVERY episode.
In this episode the 'Fitz' and 'Olivia' flashback scenes were scorching hot and beautifully romantic.
The Oval office scene, just.... Lawd!
Then the rose garden scene where 'Fitz' tells 'Olivia' exactly how he feels... *swoons*. Omg that man!
I wonder if I was the only one smiling like a damn fool watching that scene. LOL
It was so heartbreaking watching the scene where 'Olivia' is drawn to 'Fitz' side of the closet at the White House, picks up one of his NAVY sweatshirts and breakdowns. She had to be strong in public, but the man that she loves, the love of her life has been shot and is fighting for his life! She couldn't hold it in any longer. Kerry Washington owned that scene. It was brilliant.
Okay folks here are some must see highlights, full episode and the awesome Afterbuzz Show. [Big ups to the Youtubers who upload these SCANDAL gems. Y'all rock!]

AFTERBUZZ TV [SCANDAL 208 RECAP]

This month's book pick is 'Risky Love' By Sienna Mynx from the 'Mi Carina' series.
'Diego's Wrath' [Book Two] is the continuation of Marcella & Diego's story. It's also included in the December book of the month pick.
As of now, there are only two books in this series. These titles are perfect e-book reads. Order immediately on your Kindle, Nook, Kobo, etc.
Bonus Pick: The Battaglia Mafia Series'
Book One: 'Destino' By Sienna Mynx
Book Two: 'Ti Amo' [Expected to be released on 12.15.12]
Also recommend "Aiden's Game" and "Daisy's Choice [The Tale Of Three Hearts Series] By Sienna Mynx.
Sienna Mynx novels are hella hot must reads. The alpha male heroes in her stories are always exciting and sexy as hell. The explosive passion, love, jealousy, trials, tribulations, pain and joy between the characters always have you rooting for the couple to make it through.
Like with any good book, the ending leaves you wanting to know more, well these stories continue in additional volumes of a particular series and the story picks up where it left off and gets even better if at all possible.
Now of course some Sienna Mynx novels are stand alone books, and they are just as good.

Jamie Foxx, Kerry Washington & Leonardo DiCaprio Cover VIBE, Discuss DJANGO UNCHAINED
The cast of the upcoming film DJANGO UNCHAINED, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx & Kerry Washington cover VIBE Magazine and discuss the film. Deets below.
Via VIBE:
Director Quentin Tarantino certainly isn't known for his subtlety, so it's no surprise that he's tackling the heavy topic of slavery in his next flick Django Unchained, which hits theaters on Christmas Day.
Vibe magazine gathered the A-list stars of the movie — Leonardo DiCaprio, Kerry Washington and Jamie Foxx — to chat about their project. Here are some of the highlights:
DiCaprio on playing a slave owner:
"For me, the initial thing obviously was playing someone so disreputable and horrible whose ideas I obviously couldn't connect with on any level. I think it took me to places I didn't even imagine. I remember our first read and it was hard for me to wrap my head around it. My initial response was 'Do we need to go this far? Are we going too far?'"
Washington on getting an on-set education:
"I remember there was this one moment in the script where Jamie's character was put in an awful crazy medieval metal mask. I said, "That's some sick thing Quentin thought up." And when I went to the production office to meet about my wardrobe, I saw into the research office. Twenty photos of real masks like that. It made me sad. ... I didn't even know that they wore masks like that, that people did that to us. It took a Tarantino movie for me to know that that's not some crazy thing out of his imagination. That's how it went down."
Foxx on the importance of the movie:
"Every two, three years there is a movie about the Holocaust because they want you to remember and they want you to be reminded of what it was. When was the last time you've seen a movie about slavery? What we were doing was an acrobatic routine with the highest degree of difficulty. It's a tough script to read. I had both my daughters come down to the plantation and I walk them through and said, 'This is where your people come from. This is your background.'"
