As if anyone ever thought they wouldn't come to a "deal"... What a dog and pony show.

And nice job Kelly. I'm not going to announce anything, but we have a deal. ... Ooops, did I just say that??

And I guarantee you that CommieCare is fully funded and Obama’s worthless Congress is still exempt and his campaign donors are still except. CommieCare is only for those that can’t afford to buy their way out of it.

The Senate could have a 1000 deals, but if the HOUSE doesn’t go along with it, then it’s a waste of time.

Do NOT Deal, Congressman Wenstrup, Ohio 2nd!

Sooner or later they’ll shove Soviet Union style health care on us and then legalize tens of millions of illegal aliens....

And continue to leave the borders wide open.

Senator: Deal to avoid default and open government

Liars lying.

The government is 83% open.

There are enough tax receipts to pay the debt and avoid a default even without a deal.

"Of all the damage to be done politically here, one of the greatest concerns I have is that somehow John Boehner gets compromised," said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a former House member and a Boehner supporter.

Yeah, some supporter. Linda Grahamnesty, jock strap.

What’s everybody celebrating?

Under the agreement, the government would be funded through Jan. 15, and the debt ceiling would be raised until Feb. 7.

This wasn’t even a “Compromise” the Dems got EVERYTHING that they wanted..its the same bill as yesterday except no mention of Obamacare, so Obama and his cronies get exempt, which is what they were bitching about yesterday, they love the bill but not enough to be covered by it..the GOP caved

Sounds like they’re going to punch out the debt limit just under another trillion$ to make this deal. Anything to keep spending down? Why it would be just terrible if the debt ceiling broke 18 trillion$-——so much better to keep it under that. Just sounds great don’t it? And I don’t want to hear sniveling about how easy it is for us to pay the interest. Interest rates on federal debt have essentially been ZERO and that is not going to last much longer. pure dumbassness-—I don’t want to waste any more words.

Sens. Cruz, Lee say they won't block deal
The Hill ^
"The deal...would fund the government through Jan. 15 and raise the debt-ceiling until February."

Heh, heh. Rumors of exaggeration started by crusty, old political chicks are cute.

Okay, folks! Let’s all cash in!

And do NOT vote for the republican party. There’s no use. It’s just there for show.

Finally, to make matters as good for you as possible, don’t talk bad about the dictator.

Boener is in the process of rolling over for this. But the conservatives in the House can still fight...and should.

The GOP conservative should rebel in the House against Boehner and vote him out as the Speaker and replace him with a conservative Speaker willing to do battle and take Obama to the mat.

In fact the GOP should take the following line in talking to Obama.

"Look, Barry, we have the votes to stop you cold, and we have decided to use those votes.

"We control government funduing and we are going to exercise that control.

"We are talking about a complete shutdown where not so much as a dime will be available for you to even heat the White House, so get ready to stay at the local Holiday Inn on your own dime for the duration. Also, tell Michelle she can send her 100+ assistants home to, and weed her own garden.

"The only thing we will fund during that time is the US military you hate so much.

"When you are ready to talk about seriously creating a budget...one that is balanced, one that really reduces the debt...and we are talking about a true reduction in the actual amount we owe, not just a reduction in the percentage of your spending increases...and a budget we that puts an end to ObamCare. When you are ready to seriously talk to us about those things...get back with us.

"Oh, BTW, Barry. One other thing we will fund is the following. The House of Reprentatives will meet each day with the express purpose of impeaching your sorry backside each day for the next 60 working days. Impeach you each day on a different charge. 60 impeachments, Barry. When you get ready to talk to us, then the first thing the Senate will have to take up is those 60 impeachments. Think about that while you are waiting, and watching.

"So, we have the votes, and we are firm. Give us a call when you are ready to talk. Bye now."
That's the discussion a real Speaker of the House should be having with Obama.

AMERICA AT THE CROSSROADS OF HISTORY

They do realize that the only way to avoid default is to Replace Obama and his Secretary Lew?

“Each month the government collects $250 billion in taxes, and if the Congress decided not to raise the debt ceiling, Secretary Lew would have adequate resources to pay the $23 billion in interest to the public.”

http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2013/10/16/obamas-victory-on-debt-ceiling-comes-at-terrible-price/?intcmp=trending

Basically that means Obama could decide at any moment to just not pay the interest on the debt, the same now as he did before. There is more than 10 times more revenue than is needed to pay such interest payments so its entirely up to Obama.

That being said I would not shed a tear should they decide not to and our Federal government’s credit rating go down to zero. The ability to run up cheap debt is a MAJOR liability in a democracy, as it quite obviously enables politicians to spend future generation’s money to buy the current generation’s vote, while avoiding the consequences of theses expenditures.
