Who does the oversight? This is nonsense, it can not be allowed for them to hide or skim or plain ole steal billions.
Throw the bums in jail and see how the rest straighten their business up.
Here here!
Hussein really thinks the people are on his side.
Let’s find out.
Makes no difference. Bill is a piece of trash. Does nothing to solve problems.
I say call his bluff. And ask for a list of his near-term cuts.
“I actually think McConnell knows exactly what he’s doing: offering a psuedo-solution to the problem, but one that he knows Obama won’t accept.
I suspect Boehner, Cantor, and McConnell are in close contact and that they are playing this very well.”
That’s what I’m afraid of and what I’ve posted earlier. These guys just want cover for the election. They just want to say that they voted for cut, cap & balance. After that they’ll support anything the RINOS/WH send their way. This is politics at its worst.
We need to make it clear through phone calls, emails, talk shows everything, that this will NOT stand. These guys need to fight if they want ANY support in 2012.
None of this “I voted against it before I voted for it” bull
Your posts always make me smile. Thanks!
While about 50% of GOP senators have come ou against McConnell's plan B, the one who has been very quiet about it is Rand Paul. The prototype Tea party senator, by many recent reports, he and Mitch are working very well together. Paul normally isn't shy about about inveighign against legislation he detests, yet he's been very quiet about this..
we shall see..
Come on Congress - cut even more from the WH budget and then go on a full court press PR campaign to sell it to the public.
and don’t let the nay sayers on FR stop you!!!
RE: Bill is a piece of trash. Does nothing to solve problems
Why would a Balanced Budget Amendment not help solve the budget, deficit and debt problems we have?
47% of the people are...the ones sucking off the government tit.
RE: Right, so it’s done for PR purposes...
Let’s just say for the sake of Argument that some Democratic Senators saw the light and DID help the rest of the GOP Senators pass this Congressional Bill, would the sponsors of this bill suddenly say -— “Oh oh, we made a mistake, we gave it to them hoping and thinking they would not pass it but they did... now what do we do?”
I should say not. I’d say they would be ecstatic.
If this is so, then it woud NOT be for PR purposes only.
Time to just say it: Obama and his minions are the number one enemy of the American people.

Here is a development in Tacoma WA (Salishan) that was built for Illegal Immigrants! 1325 Homes created! Refugee Pay offers them $2642 per month in SSI benefits, plus Food Stamps, plus Section 8 Housing. You will see new expensive cars in this video. Wouldn't you like to get a free ride like the illegals?
I find no compelling evidence OTrauma is standing for election next year.
I find no compelling evidence there will BE an election next year.
The real problem is that Obama can veto this if it gets to him because he knows the GOP is ready to cave with the McConnell plan.
The Senate will kill it. They know the GOP is ready to cave on the McConnell deal.
Playing it very well? You mean kicking the beaten-up can down the road even further to advance their own political careers?
We want solutions to the problem, not political maneuvers. This is what people are sick of, it’s what people see thru. This is what failed Newt. The Dems, with help from the media, own our asses in the political arena. The only thing we can do is the RIGHT thing and let the chips fall where they may.
House GOP doesn't know if it has the 218 votes to pass the bill..it's a test of strength for conservatives...Obama's coming out with this, now, is, in a sense..wavign the red flag in fron of the bull..it might be enough to get it through the Hosue..
“I suspect Boehner, Cantor, and McConnell are in close contact and that they are playing this very well.”
I don’t believe that beaten dogs suddenly become predatory wolf packs.
The old, failed, steeped in submission nomenklatura needs to go.
