At his press conference a few minutes ago, Obama whined Boehner wouldn't return his phone call this afternoon.

There’s a certain learning curve for people who’ve never dealt with a pathological narcissist. I can’t fault anyone for being fooled once. By what Boehner’s recently said and done, he seems to have learned his lesson. It’s also quite clear that Boehner is negotiating from a position of strength, unlike Barry.

Luv you onyx. Isn’t this all maddening? Our dear leaders. I’ve gone galt. Hubby hasn’t, just wait. It’s not going to be a gun thing, it’s going to be an economic revolt. Everything he does turns to crap, and we’re done with crap...

You are healthier than I! Wish he would have stepped back a little more from the trees and given history of why he is speaker after two years of barrio’s reign....but the premises get set by media....

See sounded like a complete moron this evening and it was obvious he was pissed. I bet he threw one hell of a hissy fit and is probably drunk as a skink about now.

Yep he said exactly that in his presser this afternoon, he actually said he wants a deal that will take us through the 2012 elections! I could not believe he actually admitted it when I heard it.

I still am skeptical, though it was great to hear Boehner speak like he had a backbone or spine this evening. Hope Boehner stays with his words and does not turn away from those words.

Was wonderful to see some good news today. Thanks kristinn.

Raising the debt limit is a tax hike. A tax is a debt owed.

Once Congress raises the biggest tax we in this country pay, the debt ceiling. The ability to restrain spending goes out the window.

After Congress raises your taxes in front of your face, but they call it a different word so you don't get that Clark Kent is indeed Superman. They will fly off with your money yet again, and leave you with a guaranteed tax bill you must pay by threat of default.

The only reason the liberal figurehead Barack Fitzgerald Obama got immaculated as POTUS was the sudden economic meltdown a few months before the election. A crisis caused by liberal policies like the CRA, and magnified by investment banks who packaged garbage and sold the CDOs to foreign gubmints and institutional investors.(they were greedy and when life throws you a lemon they made lemonade)

“Don’t let a good crisis go to waste”. Payback is a bitch. Our childrens future is worth playing hardball for. Screw the Statists and leftists.

Yes, Obama looks weak right now. He wanted to make the Republicans look weak and now he’s on the spot.

All he care about is getting something... anything resolved until after the 2012 elections

Yep, and so he can have HIS name all over it.. and use it in the election to say what HE has accomplished. This isn't about the budget for Bozo, it's about Him as we all know. I hope our guy holds out....remains to be seen....and they do not go for the MCConnell bid. I see Obama said he's sign that.....God help us if it goes to that!

Just when I thought you people had run humblegunner off, he shows back up, nasty as ever.

We used to have a guy called pissant around here who went around constantly trying to tick people off for no good reason.

Wonder what happened to him?

Well I see Paulson’s in the fray now..meeting with Geitner and Bernie on what to do if there’s no agreement.....
I thought Paulson had done his deed and was out of the political picture....but here he is crying wolf again.

What’s his nose in this now for?
Wonder if he’ll be back begging on his knees again? I’m not at all comfortable he’s in this.

Hiking the debt ceiling is a failure of leadership

Do you think someone really reads all the posts on the FaceBook pages of Speaker Boehner, Eric Cantor, and Jim DeMint? There are thousands of comments...I hope someone actually goes through and finds the relevant comments and passes them on! Anyone know for sure?
