The solution is for the House of Representatives to pass conservative legislation, including a drastic reduction in transfer payments, and eliminate Obamacare, send it to the Senate, and then just go home.

Every time a media person asks what the GOP is going to do about the financial mess, all they have to do is say the Senate has to do is vote on the legislation and get Obama to sign it.

Any legislation to increase the debt limit should be in very small increments, attached to additional conservative legislation.

It won’t take long for those sucking off the government teat to tell the Democrats to go ahead and pass the legislation.

That’s what a real negotiator would do. When it comes to financial matters, the House of Representatives hold all the cards. The Democrats did this for 40 years; the Republicans can do the same.

Makes total sense. Which is why Boehner won’t do it. Instead, he’s purging the conservatives from important committees.

In hanging tough, House Conservatives need to reiterate a combination of talking points; never let themselves be interviewed without starting by clarifying their position against Obama's Class-Warfare attitude on Taxation:

1. Class-Warfare is immoral & unamerican.

2. A tax system that punishes success to reward failure is economically insane.

3. The Founding Fathers considered the use of taxation to redistribute wealth to be totally unacceptable (Art. I, Sec. 9). Having sworn to uphold the Constitution, one cannot vote for redistribution of wealth.

4. During the 124 years, from 1789 til 1913, when we followed the Founder's Taxing policy, we had the greatest material growth rate of any people on earth--and we retained our spiritual values in the process. Nothing, proportionately, or adjusted for inflation, has since compared! (And just look at what the class-warfare mentality has done to our spiritual values!)

Do not let anyone put Obama's definitions into anyone on our side's mouth. Obama has never been about "fairness," anymore than Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin, Hitler or Castro were ever about "fairness."
