How long is this scum going to get away with the lies he tells. If his lips or Obama's or Pelosi's are moving, the lies are spewing.

Man, just think of it. O, Harry and Nancy stand poised to destroy the capitalist economy, plunge 3/4 of the population into dependency on government, wipe out all retirement savings and investments, raise taxes on those not dependent, and all this will be blamed on the “terrorist” Republicans. If you’re a progressive, it doesn’t get any better than this.

It's exactly what Obama promised and the drones voted for:

"We are five days days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America."

There are stirrings of The Connie Mack Penny Plan now that all the traditional political schemes have gone to the wind.

It is already a bill, HR 1848, commonly referred to as The Connie Mack Penny Plan or just The Penny Plan, and it is a simple and no nonsense way to cut back each year beginning right now. It is NOT one of those bills based on saving off of proposed growth.

It has 46 co-sponsors in the House and the entire 103 member Republican Study Committee supports it, and now some Senators are adjoining with it. Marco Rubio has now even endorsed this bill.

It IS a bill already, so it could be voted on fairly quickly. If you are not familiar with it, you should catch up on it.

I started another thread earlier today on Free Republic as a way to help us all (me included) learn more about it.

Here is a link to that thread:

Default?! Country stopped to pay taxes all of a sudden? On what exactly Obama prefers to spend those billions in taxes arriving weekly to the Treasury coffers?? Birthday bash?

Social Security and Medicare checks will stop?! Have we stop to pay our designated Social Security and Medicare taxes? They cannot be spend on anything else...

That asshat trying to sound like an exasperated parent trying to cajole his recalcitrant teenage child to accept his rules.

Thanks, Nevada.

Just in spirit of cooperation with Harry Reid I today saved a bundle by not chartering the entire cruise ship for my next vacation.

What the heck, I decided to borrow all the money from myself on 10% interest, to buy jewelry, art and gold, then, in the end of the year, I'll be on top of that 10% richer. Then I repeat it several times until I accumulate both significant cash and property wealth.

Mr. Obama and Mr. Reid's financial eternal engine...

“Social Security and Medicare checks will stop?!”

All the characters coming and going to-and-from Foggy Bottom have assured us, over-and-over, that all the SS money that has been squeezed from us over the years is safely put away in a lockbox ...
They weren’t lying to us, were they? Have they actually been spending that money as fast as they can?
Round up the usual suspects; start with Congress, less the Tea Party.

We are there. Businesses have been closing around here like dominoes toppling over. It’s an economic nightmare.

Harry isn’t talking to the Republicans — he’s talking to the liberal Democrat base. Talking to someone like that in the real world would earn you a black eye.

When is someone going to call him on the “default” lie?

I'm sure that some Republicans are trying, but the MSM drones are just deleting those interviews from their camcorders.

Reid is a moron and a liar.

For the last time, can we just leave his religion out of this? Conflating his religion with his flawed character reflects badly on our side. Seriously - knock it off!

Wait........you said "moron".....

Ooops....carry on ;-)

You are being played by both sides.

Here is tonights show at the DC Playhouse.

Mcconnell won’t negotiate with Reid.

Only Obama.

Thinks OBama can broker the deal.

Say what????????????????

Yes, that’s right. Traitor M is giving Obama the status of centrist negotiator.

It's time for the democrats to listen to the Republicans - big time. Feeeeeeelings are irrelevant right now. It's time to use reason. It's time to grow up.
If the democrats refuse to get serious, a lot of innocent employed people are going to suffer (even more than they are today).

Isn't it time, Mr. Reid, your able bodied freeloaders were weened off the public teat?

How about Democrats, you HAVE TO OBEY WE THE PEOPLE. Your freewheeling spend as if there is no tomorrow days are OVER.

The taxpaying slaves are rebelling. That must scare them to death. No slave labor - no money to buy votes from the democrat freeloaders. (The pharaohs know that Moses is on his way.)
