America pays its bills

If being an conservative now means America doesn't pay its bills than I'll have to call myself something other than a conservative...an American comes to mind.

What is that supposed to mean in the context of the traitorous, deceitful behavior we just witnessed from John Cornyn and Mitch McConnell?

It means what it says.

I support Cruz generally but he is playing the same idiot political game all politicians do on this issue without regard to the consequences of their actions in the world economy.

In my view there should never be an issue regarding the debt. The idiots incurred the bills and we are on the hook..end of story.

I don't like it but a conservative always pays the bills incurred in the name of the United States in my universe.

The idea that somehow America would shirk this responsibility shows to me that Liberals and Liberaltarians are dead beats..and as I conservative I have no use for either.
