House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R., Wis.) signaled that Republicans would not raise the debt ceiling next year without some sort of concessions from Democrats, saying lawmakers were still crafting their strategy.
We, as a caucus, along with our Senate counterparts, are going to meet and discuss what it is we want to get out of the debt limit, Mr. Ryan said on Fox News Sunday. We dont want nothing out of the debt limit. Were going to decide what it is we can accomplish out of this debt limit fight.
The U.S. government spends more money than it brings in through taxes, which means the Treasury Department has to borrow money by issuing debt. The government can only borrow money up to a certain level - called the debt ceiling which is set by Congress. In October, lawmakers agreed to suspend the debt limit until Feb. 7, 2014. The White House has said it will no longer negotiate with Republicans on conditions for raising the debt limit, but many Republicans have said they will only vote to raise the debt ceiling in exchange for budget changes like spending cuts.

Time for this assclown to resign, nothing but a joke. All the the talk that came out of his mouth about being a fiscal politician was nothing but lies. When he ran with the other mush head for the high office he talked all that crap about being conservative. Now he is nothing but coward.
My feelings exactly.
The RINO Establishment Party, (REP), is so cowardly that it will not act unless it has the POTUS, Senate and House under firm control.
There is not one Warrior in their sorry REP Leadership!
Thus, the REP are useless as a force to protect us tax-burdened voters from the Marxist Obamanation.
With 80% initial (2009) polled voter opposition to Obamacare, and 73 % polled voter opposition to Obamacare now, Boehner-Cantor-Ryan rammed through the Ryan-Murray “Compromise” Bill to finance “The Law of the Land” Marxist Obamacare Bill for the next two years!
Only 94 House members stood and delivered opposition to this cave-in bill, thus insuring TWO MORE YEARS of Obamanation Crisis Economics to burden us voters with!
The 2014 Election needs to be about ridding the US House from the RINOs who caved-in on this bill, as we cannot trust them ever again to protect us from the Marxist Senate, Marxist Supreme Court, or Marxist Administration.
On the Democrat side, you Lurkers need to be honest with yourselves concerning continuing your loyalty to your Marxist Democrats and Marxist Progressives in the US House and Senate.
FYI, a Marxist is anyone who believes in “Income Redistribution.”
Income Redistribution is just the PC term for what Karl Marx advocated:
“FROM EACH ACCORDING TO HIS ABILITY, TO EACH ACCORDING TO HIS NEED.”
