Bill Buckley is turning in his grave if he saw what his National Review has turned into.

Celebrating as a victory spending more money that is not there and giving a free hand out to liberals when there is no budget is tantamount to surrender.

Are there not intelligent people left at all?

How many reading this thread wanna bet that the debt ceiling WILL BE INCREASED WITH ALMOST NEGLIGENT SPENDING CUTS in 3 months?

The name of the game has always been — KICK THE CAN.

What difference does it make

[Cringing Negativism Network]

We need to reign in our imports.

We are sending billions, and billions, and billions of dollars to India, South America, China.

All one way. China especially gets stronger.

We get weaker. Constantly.

Eventually this is a reason for great concern. I would posit, if we do not do something to change what is happening, that time is rapidly approaching.

Bring back US manufacturing.

Now.

It’s so predictable. The Republicans will crow about their spending cuts, and the Federal Government will spend 20% more next year.

Wake up bubbas.

"House Republicans appear to have gotten some of their mojo back"

The gutless cowards in the House no more have "mojo" (or even gonads) than pigs have the ability to fly.

Is b*ll-less Boehner involved?

The words ‘tough’ and ‘GOP’ in the same sentence.

That’s sort of like ‘winning’ and ‘Cubs’ in the same sentence. Or ‘Hillary’ and ‘slender’.

On Wednesday, the House suspended the limit on the nation’s debt ceiling.

SOrry. Am I misunderstanding this? We now have NO debt ceiling???

Isn't this exactly what Obama DEMANDED? That he have control of the debt ceiling? We have no debt ceiling until May 18? So now as long as they do all their spending before May 18, it's all good? They can spend as much as they want as long as it's before May 18? Did I get that wrong?

So they can spend the entire 2013 year, as long as it's POSTED before May 18? And why stop there? If we have no debt ceiling, they can do the spending for the next 4 years as much as they want. No debt ceiling is a disaster. Usually don't they have to raise it by a certain amount or am I misunderstanding something here??? Sure hope I am.

And we got nothing in return? Sequester don't matter with this. They can spend it and call it something else.

ARE THEY FRICKIN CRAZY? *NO* DEBT CEILING???????

Yah. I think it's time to jump the GOP ship. Why bother? They're just Dems with an R in front of their name.

I think this is saying the only spending cuts will be the automatic ones that were passed in 2011 by not stopping them, and they will delay the Senate pay if they cant pass a budget.

So what does the 10 years ‘resolution’ mean? Anything?

This may be the best they can get w just the House, but I wouldnt call it a bold step.
