So is the media explicitly lying in attempt to get Boehner to do this, or did Boehner fold?
I read moody too I agree
If the ‘pubs stand firm on not funding Obamacare, the six-week extension allowing the debt limit to be raised is a good idea. If Obama rejects it, he caused whatever mayham he might initiate. If Obama accepts it and keeps doing stupid stuff, his administration becomes more of a joke every day.
Any the WH just puts out another snarky comment about the republicans ransom.
Lew is a political hack. A lightweight party apparatchick, not a serious or credible voice on economic matters. He’s going to tow the party line every time.
The media wants everyone to believe that not raising the U.S. debt limit will result in default and world economic collapse.
come one people this is just more scare tactics to get the Republicans to cave. Don’t give in Republicans . don’t believe the media .
the media cried wolf with global warming, sequester, gov shutdown,fiscal cliff bs, etc. etc. that are all imaginary hobgoblins
don’t believe the media who are practically all registered democrats
don’t raise the debt limit. keep the useless government shut down
Correct.
Default is impossible, given the revenues coming in.
NO!
hell no!
Removing the emergency brake is not a solution.
Stop with the continuing resolutions and come up with a budget that is within our means.
It’s just putting off the battle. Might as well have it now as 6 weeks from now. For 6 weeks, they should say, ok, but accept appropriations bills for defense and one or two other agencies.
So, they’re in a fight and they cave. Just like Republicans.
progressive wing of GOP caves.
“Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.”
“Lucy, do you promise not to snatch the football away this time?”
All comments that apply to the Republican party and especially that “sissy” Boehner.
Most of us knew from the start that the whole thing was a major “smoke and mirrors” play put on for the public benefit of those who needed some hope that, just maybe...this time...the Republicans would actually represent the views of those who put them into office or if nothing else, to protect our rights under the Constitution.
The Republican party cannot be fixed for it IS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY TWIN.
Cruz, Paul and a very few others are the only patriots sitting in Washington.
