Angry Obama storms out of debt-ceiling negotiations. "I’m going to the American people with this.”

Gingrich gave the reasonable suggestion: Cuts that match the debt increase.

Well, that makes a lot of sense. /sarc

If you cut spending, why do you have to increase borrowing?

If spenders charge less on their credit card, why would they want an increased credit limit? Hmmm?

He walked. Tell him to keep walking-all the way to Kenya.

Operation President Walker. We need one.

He’s whining because they’re turning turning off the cash spigot for the 2012 elections...which means they’re ability to the “fix” the elections..and cover the 110% turnout rates required in downtown Chicago and Philly is going to be severely compromised.

Leave it to the GOP to natch defeat front the jaws of victory...yet.

The fact that he referenced RR indicates he is trying to get others to see him in that light (”I’m doing what RR did.”) The fact that he doesn’t get the difference between what he did and what RR did with Gorbachev speaks volumes.

I think what most of us are missing is Obama's vision for the USA. He is a hard left socialist quasi Marxist if not outright Marxist. Thus his goal is an absolute socialistic state in the USA. Budgets mean nothing. The most important thing for him is his reelection. He needs another four years to complete his objectives. Also, when nations collapse due to financial insanity it creates a time of great instability. This instability creates the environment for drastic changes be to the right or the left.

If you look at the "Cloward Pliven" strategy of causing a nation to implode due to financial demands and Saul Alinskys "Rules for Radicals" you can understand Obama's every move.

Obama does not worry if he plunges this nation into financial ruin, class warfare, and racial strife. Obama is worried that he may not be able to plunge this great nation into financial ruin, class warfare and racial strife.

I BELIEVE LITTLE OF WHAT HE SAYS. I BELIEVE WITH 100% FAITH THAT HIS MENTORS AND TEACHERS BELIEVED WHAT THEY TAUGHT HIM AND THAT HE BELIEVED WHAT THEY SAID

I agree.

Our stock profilio is up 271%, so it is just a matter of investing against Zero.

I guess this means another barforama presser tomorrow.

“Call out the Tea Party! There’s gonna be a Redneck Revolution.”

I see some Bible thumping, gun toting, toothless hicks, coming down from the hills. (and the plains, and the valleys, and the desserts, and the mountains, and the oceans).

"I’m going to the American people with this.”

He's referring to the obamanation. There's a difference.

[dusttoyou]

Hoping he calls out holder’s people and we can practice “double tap” more than just as an ocassional double post.

Cantor says they can get a deal for $1.5 trillion in cuts through the House. Problem is, the GOP’s vowed not to raise the debt ceiling by more than the amount in total cuts and a $1.5 trillion debt-ceiling hike won’t get us past the election next year.

And there you have it! Obama's worried about his reelection.

He doesn't want the specter of this hanging over him.

Republicans should come out with clearly reasonable position. $1.5 trillion raising the debt with a dollar-for-dollar offset. Obama will be left to argue that's not enough new debt for even another 18 months?

People will get it. If this is what will pass the House, Republicans need to pass it next week and dare the Senate to vote it down as too small a debt increase.

lol..yep that’s the one. Thx

Time to eat your peas, Hussein! Big a big boy!

[chiefqc]

Does anyone still listen to mac, the crybaby liar, daddy anymore let alone believe anything he says?

“It cannot all be on us,” the president said, arguing that Republicans need to give on the revenue side of things as Democrats are willing to do so on spending cuts.

It can (it must!) when it is your side’policies that have created the problem.
