I get what you are saying Brian, but you just providing fodder for the bed wetters on this list. They hate any Republican more than Obama.
If didn't know better, I'd think you were Boehner. After all, the first thing he told the Tea Party freshmen when they hit the Hill was that if they wouldn't help him raise the debt ceiling they were a bunch of babies.
Even though they had just been elected on the strength of promises to stop this nonsense.
They hate any Republican more than Obama.
Hate? Nah. Anger at all of them? Yeah.
Every single vote to contract debt that our generation cannot possibly pay is a vote for the enslavement of our grandchildren. It is the stripping of our posterity’s God-given right to self-government by consent. A yes vote to raise the debt ceiling is an unmistakable signal to already-overburdened Americans that all the campaign rhetoric about fiscal restraint was merely empty talk.
If they were in any way serious they would instead move quickly to cut spending, beginning with the vast number of programs and agencies that are not among the Enumerated Powers contained in our Constitution, which they swore to faithfully support and defend. They would keep their word and fulfill the ultimate stated purpose of that precious document by securing the Blessings of Liberty to Posterity.
