” Its quite sad that there are no democrats in power who will stop him from destroying our country not one. “
And no Republicans either, at least not nearly enough.

Too big of a pussy to call it what it is - an outright lie.

The current crop of Republicans only care about themselves. Our country will go to hell if we can’t replace them.

Actually, I think Boehner’s low-key response was in part to bait Obama further and to keep the story alive.
The threat and thuggery has played so badly for Obama today that he might be inclined to keep talking about it. The more he talks about withholding checks, the more campaign commercials for 2012.
I am still hopeful that we can extract $400 billion in real spending cuts in FY 12 as part of a $2 trillion package.

What is sad is Republicans aren’t afraid of Obama. They are afraid of CNN.

krauthammer stated tonight that obama won the PR war this weekend and that obama will likely benefit from whatever happens from this point forward... the msm template is following this latest bit of propaganda and the sheeple are buying it... and it is all mitch mcconnell’s and john boehner’s fault... the depreciating buck stops on their lies.

“Sure would be nice to have a voucher and take care of my own retirement so I don’t have somebody “dictating” whether or not I get MY money back or not. “
The government already spent YOUR money, long ago. The question is how much of my kids’ money you are going to take.

What happened to that party? The American Democrat party? It used to be, well, an American enterprise.... That party has become a national and historic disgrace, and promotes the antithesis of what it is to be an American.
