What? Refusing to negotiate until the other side capitulates on the very subject to be negotiated? Like what you want Israel to do with the Palestinians? No, most of us would not do that, but you will.

You're saying publicly that shutting down the government and keeping it shut down will cause a deep recession, and our mangy little dog, too? Surrender, Dorothy, or else? But that's talking down the economy.

What you mean “we,” kemosabe?

[PoloSec]

This from a twerp who knows nothing about economy!

[Parmy]

“very deep recession”

By my way of thinking, we have been in a recession/depression plus inflation for the past 5 years. There has been no real economic growth.

[DonaldC]

What’s this we stuff?

This is largely his debt, his economy.

[knarf]

OK ... people not working are not getting paid (at the moment), so those funds are free, meaning .. the gummint has what it needs to operate.

Y'don't need no allowance increase.

Quotes of President Barack Obama on the Budget, Deficit, Debt and Deficit Ceiling
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3076002/posts

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

When it comes to ObamaCare, he says we can't change it- it's the law.

But the debt ceiling is a law that he says must be changed.

Why can some laws be changed and some laws can't be changed?

[Newbomb Turk]

Don’t negotiate until Air Force One is grounded, All Presidential vacations are canceled and all Presidential golf courses are closed.

[Brad from Tennessee]

Yeah, raise the debt ceiling so this glorified crackhead can send Air Force One on a round trip flight to fetch the family dog to Hawaii. Raise the debt so more sensitivity luncheons can be held in the White House for transsexuals and state dinners for countries that don’t show up.

[Gritty]

What do you mean, "we"?

If we can't make do with the trillions we have coming in, start shutting things down. This time, don't start with the military.

[Brown Deer]

The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. … Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that “the buck stops here.” Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. ~~ Barack 0bama, March 20, 2006

If you have not seen this, you should. One of the best youtube videos ever, and directly about the subject at hand. It is also extremely entertaining and only three minutes long.

[Fledermaus]

I’m so confused. Didn’t this same idiot, as Senator in 2006, say increasing the debt limit was irresponsible and just a tool of evil Republicans to run up Bush debt?

Harry Reid said the same back then.

[skeeter]

“Its un-patriotic! Its un-American!!”

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

More and more Obama sounds like a junkie.

“Man, I just have to have more money! I got needs!”

And as with being addicted to heroin, such addiction to insane amounts of money does not end well.

“...Or We're In Deep Trouble.”

Yes, Mr. Soetoro, you and and your goon squad is is deep, deep trouble. Especially if your credit card is maxed out and you can't buy your Amish friends those spiffy gadgets they don't need.

No more Amish pot warmers or gold plated horseshoes. Oh the horror!!
