Obama Does What He Does Best

The Debt Ceiling Debate Is Going Down To The Wire

Democrats or the National Socialist front In North America see raising taxes as the generic answer to all problems or at least an integral part of the solution. To paraphrase Rahm, "Never Let a Crisis Go To Waste Without Using It As An Excuse To Raise Taxes". The looming default is not an emergency that popped up overnight, Obama precipitated the crisis with a stimulus that accomplished nothing, except for the sole purpose of solidifying Obama's political base both domestic and international by using taxpayer dollars, after that boondoggle for the American people, he charged full speed into profligate spending mode. Now, quite by accident or a result of Bush's more moderate profligacy, according to the Socialist Party line, the US is nearing default and must increase its borrowing limits.

Fair enough, A Republican controlled congress is willing to raise the debt ceiling, if austerity measures are instituted to cut back on spending so that we will not be facing a similar crisis in a few months. The deal sounds simple; until, Obama throws in the Socialist rallying cry, "We must raise taxes or the sky will fall". Actually, the austerity measures will neutralize the need to raise taxes; unfortunately, Obama has sound political reasons for insisting on tax hikes.

As the Narcissist, Obama looks as if he is no longer in complete control of the government by bending to the will of the Republicans, who know the wrath of the Taxed Enough Already Party is watching very closely. While Obama acts with indignation at the Republican will, he must attempt to "save face" by imposing the Democratic solution to all problems, "Increase Taxes" by a hundred and spend a thousand.

Yep, we’ve got to eat our peas, so we can get to the important stuff, like what’s happening with the NFL season.

And we’re going to take on the sacred cows.

That’s mostly what I recall from today’s press conference.

He said he doesn’t believe in Continuing Resolutions. How many did he vote for when the Democrats failed to produce a budget?
