Meanwhile, not raising the debt ceiling is fraught with risks, not the least of which is creating greater uncertainty in financial markets in an already fragile recovery. Even prolonging raising the ceiling is potentially hazardous before a default happens, as investors take preventive actions that could distort the money markets. This is so stunningly and so precisely wrong.
Kathleen, dear.
I suspect that you don't actually "know" much about those "financial market" thingies, do you? And you really know even less about the "motivations" of investors, you know, for real-zies.
What you write with such blithe ignorance could be part of the script if there were a remake of "Clueless".

Alas, this will never happen. A constitutional amendment has to pass both chambers by a two-thirds vote (290 in the House; 67 in the Senate). Thus, the signees wont vote to increase the debt limit unless John Boehner and Mitch McConnell somehow magically persuade 50 or so Democrats in the House and about 20 in the Senate to vote for a balanced-budget amendment. The pledge is, therefore, an impossible standard. These people don't seem to understand that there is no money left. We are bankrupt, living on credit that we can't afford, and which will soon dry up.

This woman has a really serious, almost pathological, envy problem with conservative women who are much smarter and more accomplished than her.

This scumbag Parker has her claws out for any conservative Republican woman who is smarter, prettier, and more accomplished than she is. What a transparent loser.
To: oldbill
Yikes. I checked my post and then read your post right above it. The similarity is almost scary.

What’s that about great minds running along the same tracks?

...she promises she wont vote to raise the debt ceiling before even seeing the terms of the deal. So? Nancy Pelosi voted for a bill without knowing what's in it. Is that how Dems think? Vote for something, anything, just to say that you did something, even if you don't have a clue as to what?

She supported and voted for him last time, as did Christopher Buckley and Peggy Noonan, among many others.

Meanwhile, not raising the debt ceiling is fraught with risks, not the least of which is creating greater uncertainty in financial markets in an already fragile recovery. I don't give it much thought but when I see this talking point, one thing that puzzles me is this: wouldn't the financial markets be pleased America has decided to stop going deeper in debt and instead onto a path to get its fiscal house in order?
No doubt the ceiling will be raised but I think the markets are more interested in the sanity (or lack thereof) in the total deal. Is it on the whole more endless spending or is it serious like $3 in cuts per $1 in debt?
It's funny what she says with, "Even prolonging raising the ceiling is potentially hazardous before a default happens, as investors take preventive actions that could distort the money markets," since this is the third financial Armageddon "date" we've had this year. If what she says is so, those investors would've already taken actions distorting the money markets and she would have evidence of it to point at making her case.

She's got her marching orders and will go down with the USS Obama in 2012.

Kathleen, a pseudo-intellectual, inside-the-Beltway, RINO, Elitist, Witch (which rhymes with Bitch) made her mark and became the "Darling" of the Lame Steam Media, VISCIOUSLY attacking Palin, while pretending to be a Republican and this clueless, harridan, has no idea her "15 Minutes" have come and gone a long time ago.
There is also a component of the "Green-Eyed Monster" rearing its ugly head and when comparing this Mooncalf's looks compared to Sarah and Michelle, this jealousy of attractive, self-made, successful, intelligent, secure, female REPUBLICANS, is obvious and drives has-been, feminists like Parker bonkers.
To: Steelfish
Kathy Parker got notice a few years back when she concentrated on conservative, family-based principles. Since then she has done a 180 and become a useful tool for the evil ones.
