Obama walks abruptly out of 'tense' White House debt meeting, Cantor says

We are in a depression now, so by not raising the debt limit the economy will improve.

[Vendome]

That’s stoopid.

The 1st black President would have sat there.

Guess the 2nd black President is a defective copy.

[repub4ever1]

Cut spending by $1.7 TRILLION this year? Can you name the areas to cut and how many dollars you want cut?

[SteveH]

Cantor should just bring a briefcase full of granola bars and a potty pot and camp out at the meeting room. Let Obama kick him out. That will demonstrate to the public in a graphic way who is refusing to settle down and hammer it out.

[Vendome]

You know, I just thought of something.

I live on one of California’s top 10 golf courses and I have golfed exactly twice in the 8 years I have lived there.

I could walk to the 1st tee.

He said 'don't call my bluff. I'm going to the American people on this.'"

So he admits he is bluffing.

Hey Barry, get caught bluffing, you lose.

[Eastbound]

""Gotta get it done by Friday or the world will end." Bull****! I'm tired of this lying commie crap."

He must be reading the democrapic game plan on 'how to bully and put the fear into the opposition' by acting as though you are highly connected to the mob.

I'm surprised he didn't make any references to dead horses, or at least toss in a threat telling the seniors if they don't vote for him, funding for meals on wheels will be at risk.

"his general attention to detail seem to indicate he does not have the wherewithall to see things through to completion."

Drug fog, fry brain.

Barak Hussein is not far removed from his dope days.

Certainly no Ronald Reagan.

Walks out of the meeting? Who does he think he is? A Wisconsin Senator? A Texan Representative? What is it with these ‘rats who run away from meetings?

[skinkinthegrass]

I Like It!....lets' piss 'em off some more!...
and tell that b@$t@rd (malignant narcissistic Marxist
ideologue with a messianic complex) to go to He!!.

[crazyhorse691]

Obama tried to pull a RR moment (when RR had walk out on talks with the USSR about unrealistic nuclear demands)...the biggest problem for Obama will be that he has cast Americans as the evil empire and himself as the willing negotiator. Obamas only hope for reelection now is to split the republican vote so that he can win...which just might happen given the fractionous attitudes of conservatives and the MSMs total dedication to his cause.

[Rummyfan]

He said Obama shoved back from the desk and said "we'll see you tomorrow."

The GOP should say see ya and just propose cuts and let the chips fall where they may and stop these nonsense meetings.

[101voodoo]

You are correct, we are still in a recession, actually if not technically, and the fool in the WH knows this. What he is doing now is deliberately sabotaging the talks so there will be no agreement. When and if that happens he and his media pals will pounce on that and blame the “slide back into recession” on the stubborn Republicans.

They need tom hang tough. With 200 billion in tax revenue available there is ample money available to pay the interest on the debt, SS, Medicare, and the the military which all together need about 105 billion. After that they can pick and choose which programs get what.

Any decision to not pay SS or Medicare is strictly a political one and this is the message which needs to get out.

[Fresh Wind]

Obomba just needed his...

[Cvengr]

[Obama} 'don't call my bluff. I'm going to the American people on this.'"

So he's knows he's lying and now will appeal to democratic mass psychology to make financial decisions.

Reads like lack of fiduciary responsibilty to me.

[vanilla swirl]

“This tends to support a theory of mine: that Obama has a short attention span, or possibly ADD.”

Naawww......
Obama has never worked his entire life. He is a Chicago machine goon. He fully expects to snap his fingers and everyone do what he says. It’s been that way his whole life. And he’s gotten away with telling whoppers about everything.
He is the Post Turtle!

[NoControllingLegalAuthority]

When you read the serious work on the subject of a psychopath/sociopath, you find that you cannot negotiate with one. They have to win at all costs.

They will do or say anything to win, even if it is not in their best interest.

They take contradictory positions, sometimes within the same sentence. This creates the absurdity of a negotiator dealing with a sociopath being damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.

They do not have a conscience so they lie endlessly and effortlessly.

Obama admitted yesterday he will not budge, even if it destroys his presidency.

There were several leaders who thought they had agreements with Hitler, only to find themselves being bombed by the Luftwaffe shortly thereafter.

[Cvengr]

Good analysis.

[MasterGunner01]

Republicans in the House should pass a bill that mandates debt servicing, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the military and military retirees are paid out of monthly tax receipts. If the Senate Donkeys and Obama won't sign it, demand to know what payments he's going to cut or eliminate and to whom. Issue a subpoena to Obama’s boys to disclose where the money collected after 2 August is going and who made those decisions. Then the Republicans should crucify the Donkeys in the MSM. Have the guts and spine and attack, attack, attack, attack.
