Where are all of those losers who have repeatedly claimed that we simply can't do a third party

A true third party is needed. The Tea Party members in Congress need to led the way.

What Conservatives don't realize is that Boehner and the rest of the GOPe view us as their true enemy.

I have said throughout these weeks that Boehner plans to push amnesty in order to replace the Conservative base with what he thinks will be many grateful illegals.

He is dead wrong... The RATS will turn many purple states solid blue and Texas will fall by 2018.

The Statists of both parties are about to finish off our Republic as it was founded.

I am probably missing something but I do not understand why what is not good for the goose is not good for the gander.

Presuming that raising the debt ceiling and funding obamacare are orthogonal, Boehner can still let a bill come to the House floor that does nothing other than raise the debt ceiling until the end of the year.

He can time it so that the senate has no choice but to pass it, given all the media hoopla about deadlines, etc.

(As a devil’s advocate, I’ll now argue a point against this notion.)

If it is true as some say that Oct. 17 is not the actual default deadline and the actual deadline is sometime between Oct. 22 and Nov. 1, then Reid and the senate can simply ignore such a House bill in hopes that the MSM will not notice that the sky is not falling, and continue to pick on the House for being the recalcitrant operator in the debt ceiling crisis (as the MSM and Democrats appear to have done with Obamacare funding)...
