We ALREADY HAVE global recession

Is that true? I thought it was just a few Euro countries and the US. Aren't most other countries doing fairly well?

"Raising the debt ceiling is a sign of a lack of leadership"

- Senator Obama

I thought Obama was against raising it, OHH that was 2006. He says he changed his mind on it, Has he ever done that before?

Now we got a case of Rs and Ds in congress most of which opposed raising the limit at one time or another who will pull together now to say we must raise it or else.

As I posted on another thread. raise it about $200B with another $30B of cuts in the same bill, then repeat a few months later. Since Obama and Reid say it must be passed they will have to accept them, right ?? LOL

“Obama: Raise debt ceiling or risk global recession”

Or in other words:

“You better let me put a few more sticks of dynamite on the pile around you, or I’ll blow you sky-high”

Propose outrageous plan after outrageous plan and threaten the opposition with the consequences of your last outrageous plan if they don't go along with each.

A political perpetual motion machine- worked for years.

When will the GOP wise up and start playing the PR game like they know what they're doing?

Latest Gallup Poll.. Lowest so far for O -— H/T Drudge
http://www.gallup.com/poll/147140/Obama-Job-Approval-Tying-Low.aspx
41% approval

PRINCETON, NJ - The latest Gallup Daily tracking three-day average shows 41% of Americans approving of the job Barack Obama is doing as president. That ties his low as president, which he registered three times previously — twice in August 2010 and once in October 2010.

sounds like he has finally found his stride.

At least global recession will lower food and gas prices again :)

[TruthConquers]

The news media here doesn’t report everything, might make the Ozomibe look bad.

Food riots are my evidence. The flood of cheap US dollars are going to keep it that way.

“When will the GOP wise up and start playing the PR game like they know what they’re doing?”

I have given up thinking that the GOP is stupid.
It has given them cover for SO MANY years, I am sick of it.

Doesn’t fly or add up anymore. They just aren’t for the people anymore. That is my conclusion.

LOL!!!!
Oh lowdy lowd!! Do what he sayyyyyy.....

If we don’t raise the debt ceiling, unemployment will go above 8%...

[MichiganConservative]

So, the banksters want the US to raise the debt ceiling or, so they threaten, they screw the world? Fiat currency made out of thin air by a marxist cartel is so cool.

How could we live without it? I don’t know.

(You know this ain’t coming from Obama. He’s got puppet masters that want this and are telling him what to say and do.)

[Sir Napsalot]

Perfect! I LOLed so hard.

[God luvs America]

its only fear mongering when the GOP does it- when the radical left employs this tactic then its based on fact and reality- yet the GOP stands by silently and does not point out the hypocrisy....

didn’t we hear the same BS when obozo said $1trillion stimuloss was needed to avert disaster and keep unemployment at 8%???

its time for the GOP to start pointing fingers- it was time a half dozen years ago...

[MichiganConservative]

What do you think of the term “bi-factional ruling party”?

[Uncle Miltie]

"Obama: Raise debt ceiling or risk global recession"

As opposed to this stunning recovery 0bama created for us?

[ResponseAbility]

Back into recession? Who does he think he’s kidding?

[Red in Blue PA]

If they fail to raise the debt ceiling, there will be disaster.

What they fail to mention is that if they raise the debt ceiling, there will also be disaster.

I choose the former.

[montyspython]

That pretty much sums it up right there.
