Maybe they are too stupid to realize that Reps just handed $2 TRILLION to Obama to spend as he pleases between now and the election.

That’s not what happened, though.

That statement crystallizes the absolute core of this entire theater.

Few politicians truly understand what is happening economically.

Few understand that we are at no risk of “default.”

The GOP has NO idea how to engage in political warfare.

OBAMMIE AND HIS COMMIES created this “crisis” to force another wedge in the GOP, to separate the true TEA party representatives from the GOP; to create ad campaigns in 2012 pointing to how the GOP supported the tax increases, how the TEA party betrayed the voters; and how, if it all fails before then, it was the GOPs fault for cutting spending and not giving the Dims more spending.

Can the GOP really be so blind as to not be able to see how this was all for POLITICAL ADVANTAGE??

They should have refused to the bitter end and forced the government to abide by the Constitution.
