Obama Said No Deal, McConnell Denies, Says "Agreement Reached On All Tax Issues"

Just when one thought the posturing couldn't hit more ridiculous levels, here comes GOP Senator Mitch McConnell refuting what the president said, refuting the supposed GOP revulsion to the president's prior statement, and stating that there is actually a deal. MCCONNELL SAYS AGREEMENT REACHED ON ALL TAX ISSUES MCCONNELL SAYS `WE'RE VERY, VERY CLOSE TO AN AGREEMENT' MCCONNELL SAYS HE REACHED OUT TO BIDEN TO SOLVE FISCAL CLIFF SEN. MCCONNELL SAYS `LET'S PASS THE TAX RELIEF PORTION NOW' So if agreement on tax issues, what is there disagreement on? And while everyone follows their talking points, and is taking the charade to unseen before heights, nobody has voted on anything yet, and nothing has actually passed Congress. But once again, the algos seem to like it, for now, and are taking the market on yet another stop run higher.
