President Barack Obama says that if Republicans can't resolve the standoff over the debt ceiling and the partial government shutdown, quote, "we stand a good chance of defaulting."

This is news?
Both parties, Democrat and Republican, getting a lot of media time during this political event, setting themselves up with quotes and video clips for upcoming elections.
They’ll hook up their new world order masters when the resolution needs to happen.
More borrow, more spend.
Thanks, sheeple !
What the hell is that supposed to mean???
If Obama chooses to default, he will own the recession that will come afterwards. It’s his choice. If he doesn’t want that, he should repeal Obamacare, repeal the tax increase and then resign.
Zero is playing to the mainstream media. I tried to negotiate with the GOP but Nooooooooooooooooo.
No default- back-door balanced budget amendment. Read here.
Exactly what I was thinking of when I read the headline!
This spending has to stop somewhere, all they are ALL doing is trying to kick the can down the road like they’ve done for years.
We’re broke period.
A good start would be the elimination of Baseline Budgeting.
You can’t grow the government at 10% a year when the GNP is at less than 2%.
Obama is a f’n LIAR!
Then over the breach we go.
Since journalism in this country is dead, it's a hard item to communicate.
We have debt that is owed mostly to domestic unions and pension funds. If America experiences a financial crisis of any significance it will be caused by liberals - plain and simple.
ah shucks obama. we all know you and bernanke can just print up some more funny money and pay yourself.
So the socialist is going to default. Shocking
US might as well declare bankruptcy.
There is your legacy Odingo.
Didnt Obama say he wouldnt compromise and accept his dog pile or else?
Anyone think Boehner will convene impeachment hearings if Obama misses a payment?
I thought a lot wasn't possible before Obummer took office. He'll default the country ... he's playing for keeps ... death of the GOP, total control, ready to implement martial law if the natives get too restless. I have no doubt, after what he's done with the NPS, treatment of vets, etc. that he'll do whatever it takes .... and he's assured, based on what he's gotten away with so far, that no one will stop him. He could care less what the Constitution says or the so-called laws of the land that he ignores, flaunts, misuses. I heard a vet telling a DC cop that he's going to have to choose sides soon .... obey orders or stand with the people .... and the way things are going, it will be sooner rather than later. I do not recognize America any more.
We might default but it would reflect either the general incompetence of the Obama administration of the willful instruction by Obama. remember someone instructed the “essential” “barricade” people to put up a new barricade at the WWII Memorial first thing Monday morning
I've asked my congressman, who runs unopposed because his district is so conservative, if he will be initiating or supporting impeachment if the President defaults in direct violation of the Constitution. I asked politely, of course. I expect a non answer, of course.
