Well, it should be clear to all by now, that neither party is serious about cutting spending. We the people have been warning the politicians for decades that their big spending would lead us to bankruptcy. Well, guess what. We're nearly there. Obama has spent and committed more money than all of the presidents before him and now we're broke and will have problems borrowing more. Our credit rating will be hit, interest rates will rise, cost of government will soar even higher.
No matter what they say, we're in a deep recession. Millions of people unemployed. Businesses cutting back or shutting their doors. Too risky to invest or make long term plans. Too risky to expand or hire new employees. People everywhere are having to do with less, much less.
And our politicians are wringing their hands having no idea what to do about it. They're tossing one bill after another out there, but none of them do diddly squat about addressing the problem.
IT's THE SPENDING, STUPID!! And the solution is to CUT THE SPENDING, STUPID!!
CUT IT!! CUT IT DEEP!! CUT IT NOW!!
We the people have had to cut our spending, now it's time for the big spending government to cut theirs!!
It's time to shutter entire departments! It's time to cut the payroll! Cut the pensions! Cut the bennies! Strip the unconstitutional and unnecessary departments and programs!! Cut the bloated government! Bring our troops home! Abolish the EPA!! Abolish the TSA!! Abolish and shutter as many ABC departments as we possibly can!! REPEAL OBAMACARE!! ObamaCare is totally unnecessary, unwanted and unconstitutional. Pure socialist pork! REPEAL IT!! REPEAL IT NOW!!
When the government does these things, then we'll know they are serious!
Until then, a pox on the whole lot!
Call your congressional reps today and demand that they do not raise the debt ceiling under any circumstances whatsoever!! We're deep enough in debt already!! CUT THE SPENDING, DAMMIT!!
And if they refuse, vote the corrupt, big spending, business as usual bastards OUT!!
Rebellion is brewing!!
Go, TEA party!!

Thank you very much!!
God bless.
HERE! HERE!
Amen and amen.
I’ve been saying “IT’S THE SPENDING, STUPID” for some time now!!! Way to go, Jim.
Yea, bump!
Preach it, Jim! Way to go!
I used to think that if the debt ceiling is not raised in the eleventh hour and fifty-ninth minute, the federal pigs would have to start cutting. Then I found out that Timmy tax cheat had already ‘borrowed an additional 500 billion beyond the ceiling, hiding it in an accounting procedure. We may be at the pitchforks and torches stage already.
Hi Jim,
Thanks for this incredible forum that has been so useful for so many.
Yes, neither party is serious about cutting spending.
We will have to wait for the self-correction which will take place, and will be horrific.
We are conservatives, which means we have been making a huge (hugh) mistake lately. We keep telling the govt to solve this problem. As conservatives we should know govt doesn’t solve problems, it only makes them worse! We are wasting our time and words. There are few conservatives in Congress, not nearly enough to do what must be done.
Save yourselves folks, the govt is not going to save you. The politicos will not cut spending until forced from the outside, and then it will be very ugly and painful for most people. Prepare for a long period (8-10 years) of grinding hard times.
Thank you very much, jdsteel!!
Woo hoo!!
And this just in:
$200.00 from Indiana
$5.00 from Never Never Land
$20.00 from North Carolina
$20.00 from Washington
$20.00 from Never Never Land
Thank you all very much!!
We all have to get the message out and get folks fired up for the 2012 elections.
We need a different Congress and a new President in order to slash the size of government.
GOP primary time is RINO hunting time.
The general election is commie hunting time.
The government is too damn big!
Cut the spending, stupid!
Woo Hoo, I am finally IBTZ!
;-)

This will not happen
It’s time to shutter entire departments! It’s time to cut the payroll! Cut the pensions! Cut the bennies! Strip the unconstitutional and unnecessary departments and programs!! Cut the bloated government! Bring our troops home! Abolish the EPA!! Abolish the TSA!! Abolish and shutter as many ABC departments as we possibly can!! REPEAL OBAMACARE!! ObamaCare is totally unnecessary, unwanted and unconstitutional. Pure socialist pork! REPEAL IT!! REPEAL IT NOW!!
We wish.
Boehner has sold us ALL up down the river.
Now what?
We KNEW this was going to happen.
They would bring some watered down version of a bill and pass it. It will happen in the coming days. It will do NOTHING to help America.
What are we going to do about it?
