“Nice to see the leader of the VFW spitting a Dem talking point.”
I see nothing wrong with Mr. Thien’s statement.
“It’s all because of failed elected leadership in Washington who would rather tell you who’s to blame than fix the problem,” William A. Thien, national commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, said in a statement. “
If Treasury Secretary Lew CHOOSES to not pay America’s debts — thereby CREATING the very crisis he has warned us against — then the House should impeach him for “high crimes and misdemeanors” for that illegal act.
Gangsters CREATE “crises” to extract cash from their victims. IMHO, Lew should be called out if he CHOOSES to follow the illegal — but effective — “Chicago Way”.
“You should pay me to watch your business to make sure it doesn’t catch fire, knowhutImean?”
Huh?
It sure will
The question I have is why is the IRS still open and collecting taxes?
Serious question
Are we running a surplus right now? From my understanding, tax revenue essentially pays for entitlements and interest. After that, we are on our own
This is not surprising that Obama would go after the military again.
Poll to freep:
Who is more to blame for the federal government shutdown?
Scroll down right side.
They will only not get paid if Obama opts to not pay them.
We are not borrowing 100% of our budget.
Why aren’t we reading stories about how the welfare queens might not get their EBT? Easy, because Obama wants them to feel secure that he’s got their backs.
Why is the most pain always aimed at the military????????
What kind of head of the executive branch doesn’t know zip about his duty regarding our national security?
(Yeah...I know.... I know...)
May God bless our military and come to the aid of this nation!
Actually, if we are in deficit spending, which we have been for years, there is NOT enough money for everything the govt is spending money on.
We are not in surplus. People are being less than exact with words here, but I think most know what is going on.
Nice scare tactics—but Military was funded. Maybe the Joint Chiefs of staff need to step in and restore democracy in Washington DC. Take over and appoint a president until free elections can be held. Make Olie North President! with West as VP.
There has been with in our life time a similar situation. Think USSR.
If the debt limit isn’t raised then the government has to operate on available revenue. Out of that by law non-descretionary spending has to be paid. Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, all those are non-descretionary and get first crack at the available funds. Defense, intelligence services, air traffic control, FBI, all of those are descretionary spending and most, if not all, of those won’t have any money to keep functioning.
I was lamenting with my mother yesterday that we are no longer a nation governed by the rule of law. That’s the kind of rhetoric libtards like to use, but BHO has made it more true than ever.
SOMEONE needs to reestablish Constitutional control of this country again.
Will the gibsmedats still get their EBTs reloaded next month? I bet my next paycheck they will!
