Step back for a moment and consider the political implications of a US govt default vs. 0bama's standing among the media and in turn, the low-info voters.
Consider that everything 0bama has ever done is always political. The advancement of his party and ideology of a state that "requires" people being told what is in their best interest.
There is absolutely NO RISK for 0bama (politically) to preside over a US default.
Do you think he is going to fold ?
Why should he ?
Do you think he actually cares about America ?
Do you think he cares about his "Legacy" ?
The media has his back.
This is the biggest opportunity to seize control, an opportunity that may never come around again.
The opportunity to send the entire global economy into turmoil. Send millions of people into the arms of the Government.
It is all about politics.
The second he allows the default the impeachment needs to begin.
Of course he does.
He wants to be revered for a millenium by barbarians around the world as "The Great and Powerful Barack, Slayer of The Great Satan".
The man is a Marxist, he desires the total destruction of the United States.
Soeotoro has done plenty to merit Impeachment right now. Nevertheless, I agree with the premise. He hates America and all that is good about our country. Gotta “Send millions of people into the arms of the Government.” All is going according to the NWO/Globalist/Statist/Elitist plan...
I think he'll claim Executive Privilege before he lets that happen...and let the Supreme Court try and stop him...by the time it goes through all the “stalls” there..he'll be out of office. He is not concerned about Impeachment...didn't hurt Clinton and won't Obama either. If anything the people shoud do like Egypt did and require him to resign...now. They did it in less then 6 weeks. Took a year to get signitures then they took it to the Military to support them.

Exactly. If he didn't want it, just like his sock puppet says ......
well DUH
He's pushing for excuses to declare martial law. As for "legacy", he's already illegally occupying the office and he plans on remaining for life, so he doesn't care - he's a dictator.
To be more precise, Obama is preparing for us all to enter the MARXIST PARADISE he and his cohorts have been planning for years.
That's why we have a Common Core - to prepare the kiddos. And Obamacare - for in which to finally enslave our bodies, so that our minds will dutifully follow the Obama Piper into the Nirvana of Satan.
Come Lord Jesus, come.
Yes, he sure does.
With the EBT snafu, we all saw what his little “army” is capable of.
With the news out of Utah today, and realizing that is applicable to all states, we can see where this is going.
His little army of malcontents and moochers are going to make life very difficult for law-abiding citizens very soon.
If he declares Martial Law he may be announcing the start of a Civil war.
The basic problem with that logic is that default sends tens of millions of Americans into the arms of a government ... that can’t borrow money in order to support them.
The only way that a default results in more power for Obama is if it allows him to declare martial law. But there aren’t enough federal law enforcement AND military, combined (including a federalzed national guard( to cover the cities ... let alone the suburbs and rural areas. Which is where the money and the food is (respectively).
This is a giant game of high stakes chicken. But it’s much more in the interest - long term - to the Cruzes of the world to have a default. Because it completely unercuts the financial foundation of the welfare state.
If a shutdown brings Obama down to a 37% approval rating, just think what a default will do!
Most of us work. It’s not our consitutencies that feel the absence of the government!
There is enough revenue to pay interest on all debt, T- bill’s etc. Your question is moot and plays into the fear the leftist are trying to generate...
The 2nd revolution draws near.
Yes, he intends to fully crash the system,
make things so bad for people that they cry out for government to
save them.
0bama’s threats are not empty.
He doesn’t care.
He’s playing a political game in which he can continue to raise the stakes.
He has the media and low-info voters as his out.
Politically, there is no risk.
The rewards are and will be “unprecedented”, historically.
