At this point, I’m beginning to think that might be a good thing.
Default on our own terms rather than have it thrust upon us.
So be it. Bring in the calvary, we can do this. If the GOP gives in, a new party emerges. Folks we are at a fork in the road. Interesting times.
** Sounds as if he is on the side of if we dont raise we are in trouble and its our fault. Brilliant McSenator, just brilliant/s grr
GOP is already damaged goods, loves taking a beating.
Idiot. Already accepting blame and defeat. Typical Rino.
There, fixed it for the chicken weasel.
This is just unbelievable. Is Obama blackmailing Mitch McConnell or something? Is he secretly gay? Has he committed a felony that the FBI knows about?
How many times have we seen this sort of thing happen over the past 20 or 30 years, where the GOP leaders cave at the crucial moment?
If they do it again, with our country falling over a cliff, the GOP is dead. Dead, dead, dead. Gone with the Whigs.
No more.
Raising taxes will destroy your brand.Get to the mike and explain what is going on that Obama has spent more than all of the prior Presidents combined and then look into the camera and tell him we are broke and can not spend anymore it is time to really eat our pease President Obama and face up to the reality of this situation.That all of his retoric of pulling tax breaks will create even more unemployment and not amount to a hill of beans!
The Republican Party acts like a battered wife. She knows it’s not her fault but still can’t help blaming herself and enabling her abuser.
McCoo-coo and Boner both need to be defaulted to the unemployment lines. I’d like one person to ask obozo if he will cut off his check when he cuts off grandma’s.
That was yesterday my FRiends and it is going be BRUTAL today - so be prepared.
There is NOTHING left to keep this house of cards up!
The only thing a default will do is stop Obamas Acorn based spending COLD, and catch him raiding Social Security funds to pay his fascist union friends.
BRING IT!
Default is not an automatic result of not raising the debt ceiling. Obama would have to CHOOSE to default rather than cut out other spending, which would expose him to questions about his priorities. Why ruin OUR credit rating while we are sending billions abroad to the likes of Greece and Pakistan? Why ruin our economy and fund Obamacare, the NEA, and a Woodstock museum? Why spend the unspent stimulus money if you are going to harm our credit rating? There is NO downside to the Republicans staying firm on this.
We have said it over and over and over; the majority electorate sees (and believes) the world through the Media. It is not attentive, cognizant, nor perspicacious enough to go anywhere beyond the headlines.
And "they" know it.
If this defeatist really want to see the GOP go down in flames then just cave to Obama. It is about time the republicans stop cowering and giving in as they always do. Instead of these cry baby speeches lets hear a speech about who is really to blame here. And lets hear a speech about how close we are to the edge if we don’t stop the borrowing game.
The funny thing is that when the day comes that we fall off the cliff the republicans are going to get blamed for it by the democrats, no matter what they do. The republicans just can’t figure out how to fight back. If Reagan were here then he would show how it is done.
Oh wait... Obama has been trying to twist Reagan for his own gain as of late. And the republicans are letting him get away with it.
The republicans have Mathematical facts, and common sense on their side, and yet they act like they don’t have a clue.
Speak out Republicans! Show the left for insanity that they are.
