They refuse to listen. The debt limit is it for me because The Ryan budget is a loser. It isn't enough.

If the Republicans don't stop the raising of the debt limit. If they don't defund Obamacare and ALL of Odumbo’s other socialist programs. I will quit the GOP and go 3RD. I'm done.

Boner was just defending his 300 million dollars in deficit reduction. “But we cut Billions”. John! If your wife tells you she got the jeweler to cut the price of the $30,000 bracelet she just bought 50%, Did she really **SAVE** $15,000? or did she SPEND $15,000? Check your bank balance to find out the answer. Is there $15,000 more money in your account? or is there $15,000 LESS?

You can't take it away with one hand and put it back almost as fast with the other hand and in the interim tell us you cut spending.

The water is coming into your boat at the rate of 50 gallons a minute. You are bailing it out at the rate of 40 gallons per minute. Are you “WINNING”? Is your boat still going to sink?

Stop the presses!

By not raising the debt ceiling they stop inflation in it's tracks. No more printing of money to cover the welfare state.

I wish I could find a list of who voted for the budget bill today.

Can’t even find an article about it on FR. That is weird. This is on drudge, but not much info on specific votes.

Waterloo was also Wellington’s Waterloo. Go for it.

"Failing to raise the ceiling would be "Armageddon-like" for the economy, Obama spokesman Jay Carney said recently."

Similar threats are exactly what started this bailout bullshit, under the GWB administration, and multiplied under the muslim marxist.

It's early. It'll pop up eventually.

Bingo! Everyone knows that the only way to break an addiction to credit cards is cut them up. That’s what refusing to raise the debt ceiling is doing: cutting up the credit cards and forcing us to make the hard decisions that need to be made. No pain, no gain. It’s time to grit our teeth and bear it, however hard that is. My wife has been out of work for almost a year, and I still believe that’s what we have to do.

Amen amen and amen!!!

The RINORATS will be eliminated in the next election.

How many years have we been saying that? :(

[SharpRightTurn]

Excellent!

Go, DeMint.

When we find ourselves at the debt limit

Jimmy Demint comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom

‘Let it be’

[Theophilus]

And when the brokenhearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be

For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be

Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer let it be
