I think he’s being a jerk precisely because he is a petty, vindictive jerk.
I agree Cyber also have you notice how quiet Valarie has been throughout this ordeal. Something tells me she is the one pimping (or pumping) ideals into his head. we all know he is not that smart. This woman must be tried for treason.
What do you think, Laz? Is this ping-worthy? (Stupid question, I just pinged you, but you know what I mean.)
The Fed is bigger than the punk in the white house and they don’t much care what the sheeple think.
Don’t know. Nothing surprises anymore with this evil admin. I do feel deep in my heart, as do others that we are being setup for something unthinkable!
When a _resident and an administration hates We the People, as this one does, anything is possible. Our Nation is in unchartered territory and the lame-stream things they and theirs will be protected. LOL.
The democrat voters trust government cause they see everything working . but they don't understand that private businesses are what are making things run. a private business like subway or toyota has to produce a good product . so they have to work and no one has to watch them. but government is a different story. voters aren't wacthing what the IRS goons or the UN goons are doing. and even if there is a smart and good person in government as in teacher that is trying to teach even they can't teach students how to read in the government schools because government/socailism can never work. look at freidman, Hayek and your commen sense to understand why .
One is to preserve his total control over Obamacare. The second is to damage the Republicans. If he could shift the blame onto the GOP House, then, yes, he would default on bond payments.
But that's not a given that the press and public would give Obama a complete pass on a default. Default is a very big deal, and Obama is by nature risk-adverse. So I don't think he'll take the chance. My prediction: no default.
I don’t mind any vanity with the word “Obastard” in it ;-)
But I believe you’re over-thinking it. He’s not going to do anything regarding default, although without a doubt Ms. Jarret aka the Lady behind the Curtain, is guiding his actions through this. And those actions are predicated on the theory (and polling) that shows they can make this shutdown as miserable as possible and the low-information People will blame the Republicans.
If the tables were turned, I’d like to think “we” would act differently. But, it’s politics...
Remember that President of China and King of Saudi Arabia he bowed to? They wouldn’t take too kindly to his global economy-busting narcissism and they could give rat’s exithole who he blames it on.
Don’t be too worried unless Obi Ben Bernanke goes off the grid.
The Secretary of the Treasury can/should/will pay the interest on the debt without the Presidents authority. If the interest goes into default impeach the Treasury Secretary first, get his testimony on the Presidents involvement first. Then go after POTUS.
I hope that that petulant imbecile in the black hut does not have the power to do this. The fact that he’s a puppet implies that he can’t necessarily do whatever he wants without repercussion if it doesn’t mesh well with the grand plan. The grand plan is what bothers me most.
We’re thinking along the same lines.
Paging that FREEPER who has the 0bummer Mussolini photoshop image...
He has created a culture that stresses the concept that the citizens all function and live at the fragile benevolence of the federal government, and there are plenty on the other side of that line who embrace the idea that they are in charge. Obama's world view complements the one they've envisioned since they were bullied in high school. We must all respect their awesome power or they will make us pay the price.
As far as defaulting, he won't do that because it will be the final nail locking down his worst president ever title, which he still thinks isn't his. He probably thinks it belongs to Reagan.
Hitler, when he saw his Reich crumbling, decided to take down Germany with him. I think obama is capable of the same type of behavior.
Keep your eye on the movement of military domestically, and other security forces. Remember those large ammo purchases? And why did Janet Napolitano vacate her post and WHY has no one been appointed to fill that position? That could be a clue. Barry is empowering his Park Rangers and other security people with more intrusive actions and belligerent attitudes.. What gives?
0bamaCare is the Socialist / Communist permanency program.
Everything has to do with keeping it fully intact.
Including mere distractions like a full default on the debt.
