“I am not willing to believe that either Boehner OR McConnell would wlllingly and wantonly preside over the destruction of this country...which is what it would be”

No. false dichotomy. They are trying to preserve their political futures. They are misguided and weak, not frankly evil.

“I am going to watch this very carefully. Stopping obama truly IS priority number one.”
*******************************************
Stopping Obama is the lowest common denominator even for a moderate liberal. But it is not nearly enough. Replacing Obama with Romney, for example, would mean a consolidation of all the evil Obama has done. Merely replacing Obama with a RINO like Bush 41 or Bush 43 or a nebbish such as McConnell or Boehner would yield a Democrat President even worse than Obama. Remember how the Bushes gave rise to Clinton (who was bad) and Obama (who was worse).
Unless Obama is replaced with a Reagan conservative, defeating him will represent nothing more than a pit stop on the road to ruin.
There is only one Reagan conservative in the field. She opposed raising the debt ceiling at all, arguing that we should force Obama to prioritize. Recognizing that the GOP lacks the will to fight, she said that “Cut, Cap and Balance” was the only other licit means.
She does not support the Boehner Proposal. Her name is Sarah Palin.
I agree with you on all of that. But FIRST we must stop obama from doing more harm. 2012 is still over a year away. Sarah is my choice. I know what her policies are. This thread is not about Sarah Palin. It is about the rest of 2011 and 2012 until January of 2013...and what happens to this country between now and then.
