The House has already signaled that it won’t vote tonight on legislation to avert a trip over the fiscal cliff, but maybe that’ll change once our elected representatives read this post. Jose Canseco has the solution, and the best part is that it fits handily within a handful of 140-character tweets. Frankly, we could write “cut spending” and have characters to spare, but we’re not the experts — Canseco is. Are you ready?
ok here it comes

Damn it. That doesn’t stop Canseco from going to Washington, though, to do some, um, lobbying.
I will go to washington and slap all politicians if they dont fix the fiscal cliff. They are haters of America and deserve it. Here I come
