By the way, is no one able to penetrate the truth that default really means not paying the interest on the debt, and we’re not going to do that?

Nobody in the media is brave enough to call out his lie.

The issue is the treasury better start prioritizing what they are going to pay. Hope we really pay our interest and cut some salaries and office space in DC..

Frankly, there is no downside for Obama in defaulting.

Obama crashes the global economy, media blames the Republicans.

Obama fulfills the Radical Black Socialist dream of his “mentor”, Frank Davis, and crashes the US economy, the Media blames Republicans.

Obama wants money from the congressional districts for his federal government...
He should be happy to accept what’s offered.

“Nobody in the media is brave enough to call out his lie.”

There are plenty of wrecked media careers to show them what happens when someone dares to go against the approved MediaMatters/OFA Current-Truth-Of-The-Day.

It was like this in 1930’s Germany, too.

Default is not possible if the country’s obligations are paid first...he would just need to lay off some more government workers to manage the cash flow.

We know that and I’m sure he knows it. I think he deliberately wants to push the country over the cliff.

The effects of a default will be ALMOST as severe as the sequester.
