Credited with a default is more like it

[SevenMinusOne]

UnF'ing REAL if the GOP does this - This guy breaks it off in our A$$'s on healthcare and we turn around and now suggest we are going to give him another blank check to increase our debt / spend money......This cannot really be an option. There is no way this trail ballon gets past tomorrow afternoon.

This is WORSE than having the balls to stand up and VOTE for it. Fk I have more respect for the left, in this case.

[Cementjungle]

This has to be the most insane thing I’ve heard yet.

[Cheetahcat]

Hey Mitch ,,,,GO to HELL!!You Filthy Traitor!

[Thane_Banquo]

So let’s get this straight: if Democrats won’t agree to make spending cuts, we’ll fall back to the contingency where they get to raise the debt ceiling without making spending cuts.

That’s not a contingency, that’s handing the Democrats a silver platter.

McConnell is the poster boy of the Washington ruling class. These guys all stick together, and they will never allow a restraint on federal power.

Mitch McConnell needs to be making a historic resignation.

[VictoryGal]

I guess McConartist thinks that you can't lose your marbles if you give 'em all away.

[ColdOne]

NO! Just awful.

[Cheetahcat]

They PAID the POS Off, has to be the reason,NO sane person could do this!

[Huskrrrr]

No doubt Mitch has been bought and paid for.

There is nothing in this article that matches anything he has said in the last few days or on his senate web site.

[DouglasKC]

Anyone still trusting the GOP leadership to do the right thing is still living in fantasy land. As another poster said the establishment is all about amassing wealth and power for themselves before the good of the country...the people.

[9YearLurker]

Outrageous!

[Maelstorm]

This is the last straw this guy needs to be primaried. I didn’t believe this when I first saw it. This is what is godamned wrong with establishment Republicans and the political class. They are so damn deep in the mess they can’t even see the lay of the land. This is going to fly like a lead balloon with a nuclear payload.

[Shannon]

McConnell = COWARD.

Kentucky voters: Vote him OUT.

[Linda Frances]

This is the bad news. The good news is Sarah will run, maybe as an independent. I’m getting my checkbook ready.

Revenue and budgets are the responsibility of the Congress. If Sen. McConnell cannot handle that, he should resign.

[Outlaw Woman]

for later...after the flames start.

A side note: they (gop) really are going to screw around and hand the marxist another 4 years. Unless Palin gets involved and reverses this, I see nothing positive coming up.

[skeeter]

And some freepers, considering themselves more level headed, become irritated when other conservatives overreact at news of republican capitulation.
