Morning Folks!

Thanks for the thread and ping AB.

Beware of the so called “Grand Bargain”. One thing it will do is set Obamacare in stone. It is a RINO/RAT coalition Plan. Another step away from the Constitution and twards Tyranny.

[TomGuy]

Must be the summer doldrums.

None of the line-up, except possibly Rubio, seem to be worth getting up early to watch.

Durbin is getting as much face time as Mc and Cheezy anymore,
and none of them are worth missing Cathy Mitchell's latest gizmo infomercial for.

Morning AB and thanks once again for posting this thread as you so religiously do week after week.

Looks like Jack Lew is the sacrificial lamb this week. Could the administration be running out of suicide bombers to meet up with the DBM? One wonders.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Well, other than RAT-bags Durbin, Van Hollen, and Grahamnesty it doesn’t look like too bad of a “collective” line-up.

Of course, it’s likely to be a GOP bash-fest by the collectivists.

Van Hollen - never met a tax hike he didn’t like. Same old blah blah blah.

[Bernard]

The Republicans' first mistake is to include Obama in any talks. He is still the coolest kid in junior high and his friends got him elected class president. That does not make him qualified to make adult decisions about adult problems.

Better to let Obama go off to the golf courses and eat his peas in front of Michelle so she can make sure he's paying the price for marrying her. The Republicans have to deal with Nancy "Stool Sample" Pelosi and Harry "Cowboy Poetry" Reid in order to get a solution.

Even easier; propose and pass a budget in the House that calls for no new debt, which means no need to increase the ceiling. And remove all pensions for Senators, Reps and all staffers in Congress and the White House. If these people want to keep calling themselves "Public Servants", they can do their public service ad go home. The time to talk and look for a way to blame the other guy when failure happens is long past.

We are at a point where a solution to our spending problem will look like the riots in Greece. Better that than a meltdown like what happened to the Weimar Republic, or the incident at the top of the scale; The Tower of Babel.

I don't need to see John Boehner cry again to prove how much he cares. Do the right thing and go home, John.

What’s with the double Durbin today? Wonder what axe he’s grinding away at?

Fox looks the best. I want to see Herman Cain.

FOX NEWS SUNDAY: Panel

Juan Williams, stuck on stupid, “taxing the super rich”? It doesn’t actually effect the super rich.

The older fella needs to be shown a graph of tax revenue to the treasury increasing to record levels after the Bush tax cuts, but go easy, it’s sure to shatter his reality.

Marxist Talking Points

[FreedomFighter1013]

With the threat of losing our triple-A rating (see Jim Petrokoukis’ Friday article on Reuters), Obama will have to cave. Can you imagine being the guy, by the stroke of your pen or veto, that caused America to be downgraded?. It’s no time to take the gun from his head. Oh dear, is that too violent an allegory?

[P.O.E.]

Rubio making some great points.

“Debt limit is not the problem - it’s the debt”. (I’ve heard him say elsewhere Also calling the Dems on knowing about this problem and having a strategy to delay it to force a panic move.

Emcee is sickeningly biased, asking Rubio (snarkily) “Do you really believe that?” and “Don’t you think maybe, just maybe the previous adminstration blah blah blah”.

[opentalk]

Podesta from CAP was pushing this administration, after the November election, to by-pass congress by use of executive orders and regulation.

[americanophile]

In my opinion the House Republicans should pass large spending cuts and a 30 day extension in the debt limit; then we’ll go month by month, and Obama can request a spending increase and tax increase every month until November 2012. They want to keep spending? They can’t live without tax increases, then let’s hash it out every single month.

[americanophile]

Does Bob Schieffer actually get paid by the DNC? The Republicans have put forward a deficit reduction plan, and when Marco Rubio asks where the president's plan is, Schieffer responds, incredulously, with: well, where are the Republican's concessions! Concessions! So the Republicans have to put forward a plan and then, in negotiations with themselves, have to agree (with themselves) to compromise their values while Democrats are free to demagogue away. That's fine in Schieffers warped mind.

[MustKnowHistory]

Just watched FNS. Can anyone explain to me why Juan Williams persists in the eye-rolling, disdainful shrugs, and "aw c'mons" when someone expresses an opinion that differs from his?

This is getting to be quite a habit and it is very distracting and unprofessional of Mr. Williams.

(I thought Liz Cheney owned him).
