Is he going to join Carney’s warning that the Republicans are ruining Christmas?
IF Door #1 is “bad”
and Door #2 is “worse”
I am willing to see who has the courage to choose Door #3 (do nothing and keep working on “good” or “better”)
It will be the same old song......
When do we hit the spending limit? The White House says we will hit it on Aug 2. Everyone seems to agree that we will hit it on Aug 2.
The good news is that we know how much we are spending....theoretically, anyway. As big as this government is, one wonders how anyone can keep track of a gazillion big and little offices spread around the world and what they are spending.
But, they claim they know, and they claim that it is Aug 2. Maybe it’s actually today they hit 14.2 and maybe it’s 2 weeks from now. I suspect they’re estimating when 14.2 trillion gets hit, that they don’t actually know for certain.
When we do hit it, a law kicks in that says Congress must approve any spending beyond that limit.
Call it the skeptic in me, but I wonder when they started putting spending limits on spending and what they did prior to the requirement of spending limits.
I suspect they just authorized each expenditure individually and gave authority to spend (borrow) that amount of money.
If it is so important to the democrats that the house vote for Boehner’s current debt plan, then how come most of the house democrats are still voting no???
Why is all the emphasis on 25 republicans???
Why aren’t the house democrats being “whipped” by their own leadership???
If the senate needs Boehner’s current plan passed, as a vehicle or whatever, WHAT THE HELL IS STOPPING IT???
25 republicans in the house hardly make a majority.
Oh God. Not this childish fool again.
Why doesn’t he just go play golf
or shoot hoops or play Wii.
The adults have real work to do now.
We will call in the child-king idiot
when we are ready for him.
His birhtday party is in jeopardy? His umpteenth vacay at the Vineyahd?
He’s going to threaten again...I can’t see him caving or melting down...at least not until Monday.
SHOW US YOUR PLAN, 0bama.
Does anyone know where I can find a list of the Republicans who say they’ll vote against the bill? I want to congratulate every one of them. I hope my own congressman, Doug Lamborn (R-CO) is among them.
#Sen John Cornyn R-TX: “Did Harry Reid just say it was his bill or default? Irresponsible.”
Could it be?
...that Boehner was this smart to wait until the GDP numbers came out to hammer it home knowing Obmama wanted to get it done BEFORE they came out? Could the squabble be feigned?
...or is it just coincidence and we’re too stupid to use these numbers to help get real cost cutting and CCB passed?
There is a Spock qoute I can’t quite get out of my head that is appropriate here.
Again?
“I resign” is DumBO’s only responsible response.
The moron in our WH....needs to tell Harry Reid to pass the CCB without any changes. That will solve it all.
3 minutes late...
late again
