Only a few can appreciate the significance.
Obama is a rockhead. Speeches are not the same thing as governing. What’s important is the future of the country, not Obama’s ability to fool the public.
It would be nice if people on this forum who were screaming needlessly last night would now admit that Boehner was on firm turf when he rejected the larger deal: it contained a HUGE tax increase and phantom spending cuts.
So now BO is going to try to raise the stakes and demagogue the entire issue, play the class warfare game. Boehner should tell BO to either STFU or he won’t even schedule a vote on any debt limit increase.
Best realistic scenario: call the Dems bluff and hold out for a $2 trillion deal that is almost exclusively spending cuts, including an immediate down payment of $500 billion in FY 12 alone.
We are all going to have to stick together and back Boehner and McConnell, because the Beltway MSM is in a panic that the GOP will hold firm real for spending cuts, and they are livid.
Getting rid of corporate jets and reforming the patent process will take care of it. Yeah, that's the ticket.
The Republicans have not been able to explain to the sheeple that we will not default unless the Executive Branch chooses to. People actually think a default is real and pending. Given that, I see two options. Either the Republicans will cave in the face of what they perceive as overwhelming public pressure (invented by the MSM) or Obama/Geitner will force a default until they cave. A default is right out of the communist playbook of orchestrated crisis (thank you Yuri Bezmenov). Never let a crisis go to waste.
Ohaha is going to Narc on Boehner. LMAO
Mommy, Congressman Boehner won’t play fair.
We’re back on the nine year kick again, only this time I might lower the age to six, give or take a year.
Obama thinks he can pull a Reagan and go over Congress’ head directly to the public. Tomorrow afternoon the public is going to tell him to sit down, shut up, and get to work reducing spending.
4 billion?
kinda creepy
Obama address to the nation: “I am not a dick”.
What parts of the Nation are home watching TV at 11 AM on a Monday morning? (Zero’s constituents mostly haven’t gotten out of bed and the rest of us will be working.)
Barack is politically
and Congress had better reply with anything the jacka$$ has to say with a solid
Because,
We have had enough of this crap as a paying nation:
They will but need to hold this strategy for when things really get ugly with the MSM handmaidens for Obama.
If Obama is holding a press conference tomorrow b4 any bipartisan meeting, this means we are entering total war.
The next 3 weeks are going to be very ugly.
Whatever else he whines about, he’ll also gripe about Texas putting down a Mexican 17 years after killing a 16-y.o. girl.
Let's do the math, shall we? This year's deficit alone will be $1.5 trillion.
Bammy and Boner want to cut the deficit by (optimistically) $4 trillion over ten years. $1.5 trillion x ten years = 15 trillion - $4 trillion = $11 trillion in aditional debt over ten years.
So instead of $1.5 trillion in further debt every year, we'll only be $1.1 trillion in additional debt every year.
Blah Blah Blah Bush’s fault,evil rich, the republicians I I I Me Me Me. FUBO
The GOP work for the bankers just like the Dems. The banks want ever expanding debt because it is a necessity in a debt based money system. That is why the GOP has not and will never reduce the size of government.
