Leaders of both parties are shown to be liars and scaremongers when nothing substantive happens on August 2nd.
Real cuts have to be made immediately.
The world sees there is a limit to American politicians spending money the country does not have and thus GAINS CONFIDENCE in American resolve to stop the over-spending.
Best news of all - federal bureaucrats are sent home by the hundreds of thousands.
Thank God there is still one hero left who will try to protect
this country from complete ruin.
Praying that Lee will find success in this heroic endeavor!
Not taking away from his Hanio sacrifice. That was then, this is now and he has not re-earned any heroism since.
 5000 Years Ago, Moses Said To Israel, "Pick Up Your Shovels,Mount Your Asses And Camels, And I Will Lead You To The Promised Land." When Welfare Was Introduced, Roosevelt Said, "Lay Down Your Shovels, Sit On Your Asses, And Light Up A Camel, This Is The Promised Land." Today The Government Has Stolen Your Shovel, Taxed Your Asses, Raised The Price Of Camels And Mortgaged The Promised Land To China.  |
Thank you for an intelligent answer.
You’ve prompted me to change my tagline.
DeMint is in hiding.

How’d you reach this conclusion? I don’t think so. That he hasn’t said anything publicly since the deal was made doesn’t mean he’s in hiding.
The reality is, Lee, DeMint, Paul, and the handful of other Tea Party Conservatives can attempt to filibuster — but we all know that the Senate is full of RINO’s who just want to get this deal done and put this behind them. They’ll find enough votes — 7+ — for cloture.
It really doesn’t matter what Lee — or DeMint, Paul or any of the others say at this point. It is a fait accompli. They know it. Stand, yes. Object, yes. But understand, this battle is already lost. It was lost Friday, when Boehner stuck a knife in our back and twisted it — and took all but 22 Republicans with him.
Keep you powder dry, save the ammunition you’ve got left — and wait for a more opportune moment. They took this hill.
Seriously dude, it's just embarrassing.
Uh oh
McCain is what we get when the liberal media picks the repub nominee. Let this be a lesson for us as we begin the upcoming nomination process. We pick ours this time, not the New York Times.
John “my friend” McCain
Drives me nuts when I hear that asshat say that. He is so insincere.
FWIW, Linda Graham left me a voice mail last week saying she would not vote for any debt limit increase it the legislation did not also include a balanced budget amendment.
I’ll be interesting to see how she votes.
I doubt I'll change it now.
Because the headline reads GOP WINS. Now whatever happens can be blamed on them. Depression, credit down grade, hyperinflation.
If the GOP had just gone along with Obama all the bad stuff could have been avoided-they just insisted on sticking with the policies that got us into the ditch in the first place.
And if it wasn't for democrat's leadership those mean ole republicans would have gutted social security and health care. etc. etc. You get the picture?
bump.
“My Friends, fight with me, my friends, fight for “
And the rest of us, in unison, cut him off with a “oh, shut up already mclame”
I know, you've been here a long time. I was just razzing you about it.
I changed mine just after 9/11, but I just started a new account. I didn't know then that I could have kept my account (and 1999 joining date) and just asked them to change my nick.
What will you do if you are still freeping when Newt dies? Then will you change it? :)
Good night, FRiend.
For one thing, DeMint stated earlier that any increase to the debt ceiling limit was an absolute no-no. But if he is supporting the current bill that 0dumb0 claims to support, than it appears the debt limit was increased till AFTER the 2012 election (per 0dumb0's demand) in exchange for meaningless $1 trillion in cuts (actually only decreases to the spending increases) over 10 years. Which means that 0dumb0 got his debt limit increase in exchange for $1 trillion of phantom, meaningless cuts. Way to go Boehner & the House/Senate Repuke elitists. You just pissed another sterling opportunity to defang 0dumb0 and to defund 0dumb0Care. What a bunch of sorry losers. We need a real blood & guts revolution to take our country back from the elitist ruling party (both dems & repukes) and the socialists.
