Where is the Thelma and Louise cartoon with Obama driving the US economy "car" off the rim and Reid riding shot gun and encouraging him... And Pelosi applauding.

The true WTF moment was this Obama quote...

“The power to solve this is in our hands on a day when we’ve been reminded how fragile the economy already is,” he said. “If we do not come to an agreement, we could lose our country’s triple-A credit rating ... because we did not have a triple-A political system to match.”

This guy lectured on the constitution? What's not AAA about our system? As compared to what? Greece?

Yep.

Yesterday my most leftist cousin tweeted “Finally, something we can work with” when the Boehner bill was passed.

Two hours later he tweeted “WTF? Tabled? IDIOTS!” when the bill was tabled in the stenate.

While deeply flawed, if the Senate does not come back with the Boehner bill, it should be defeated.

Exactly.

The House should have passed CCB much earlier, then waited for the Senate to counter with a proposal of their own that they could get 60 votes for. Then it should have gone to reconciliation and finally they would then have left it for Obama—and dared him to veto something both sides of Congress had passed on a bipartisan basis.

All this other BS that Boehner and McConnell put the country through to get a far worse bill was simply intended to thwart the will of the GOP majority in Congress (and the American people).

Just toss it back in his face ~

He needs to be told in no uncertain terms that he arrange to accept what the House decides to give him or move aside.

“Arrogance........... “

Hate filled. Obama appears to believe what he heard in Wright's church, is filled with resentment, and is driven to push that ideological agenda. I think it was Van Jones who said that the US ‘had plenty of money, but it needed to be distributed better’. Seems that Obama believes the same.

Who is up at 6am to listen to him and are people actually swayed by his words?

“I have to say, Democrats in Congress and some Senate Republicans have been listening and have shown themselves willing to make compromises to solve this crisis,” Obama said.

Refusing to vote on every bill is compromise? What language does he speak?

How many “precious” days has it been since the Democrats passed a budget?

If you didn’t waste money, barry, they wouldn’t have to waste their time seeking a solution for your addiction to other people’s money.

Pretty mad aren’t you?

Can’t say as I blame you.

Have you wondered what will happen when we have gotten this debt ceiling past Obama’s next election?

Obama wouldn’t sign a short term debt limit increase because he wanted to kick the can down the road a bit farther.
Past his next election cycle you know.

What really sickens me is what the next poor bastard who gets elected will face. We might get away with this debt limit for a while by buying that debt with newly printed money that isn’t worth the paper it is printed on, but sooner or later we will pay big time for this illegitimate Kenyans time in the White House.

Obama keeps saying he inherited this mess, well he is leaving a legacy behind him the no man or country should have to face.

Certainly I blame Obama and his arrogance, but I also blame the Democrats and those RINO’s who suck their butts.

The only plan they had was to reject the republican plan and then put out this statement. This is BS. This is obama’s fault that this has gone down to wire and it was deliberate. This budget should have been done a long time ago.

Obama is such a F*ing A*hole I can’t stand to see or read anything he says. Like his overlord Lucifer and the other minions from Hell (Soros, Pelosi, Schumer, Sheila Jackson Lee, Deborah Widemouth-Schultz and Reid), he constantly lies and distorts the truth - should this not be a sign to other Americans that he is pure EVIL?

People better be preparing for TEOTWAWKI, because Obama and the other Marxist-Democrat are leading us to the end of America in a hurry. We will soon be on the other side of history wondering what happened. America has contacted a self-inflicted wound that may be mortal.

Obama: House Republicans wasted ‘precious days’ with Boehner plan.

Unlike house Democrats wasted a year with Obamacare plan.
