Zerohedge ^

Posted on 10/10/2013 3:32:28 PM PDT by thought

S&P futures are now over 15 points off the day's highs, as it seems equity investors were hoping for a Cumbaya moment after the White House meeting today. However, as Bloomberg reports,

•*BOEHNER LEAVES OBAMA MEETING WITHOUT SPEAKING TO REPORTERS •*REPUBLICANS LEAVE WHITE HOUSE WITHOUT MAKING STATEMENT •*OBAMA REJECTS REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL FOR SHORT-TERM PLAN: NYT It would seem that Obama's "unconditional surrender or default" position has merely placed the pressure to act back on Boehner's shoulders.

Putin is a statesman. In all that it means. He is not our friend, but I can admire and respect a man like him.

We don’t have statesmen in the US anymore. Haven’t for a long time.

I hope Obama keeps it up. Obama does not know the arse kicking he is setting himself up to receive. I am enjoying watching Obama make his own end.

If Obama’s not willing to negotiate AND
Obama could have the interest on the debt paid if he chose then
How is a default NOT on Obama’s shoulders?

And yet again "THE ONE" rejects the proposals and ideas of others while offering up none of his own. ha... What a p.o.s.

Watch bonehead and the rest of the rinos run around pretending to not be his tools while they figure out a way of trying to make it look like they've saved face after giving him (obomba) everything the treasonous (can obomba be a traitor if he's not a citizen?) dirtbag wants.

They got what they wanted: King will lead the charge to vote the Senate bill onto the House floor where the Dims and GOP will pass it.

He might'a married his cousin, but she had too many critters.

So Boehner caved on pretty much everything but Obama decided “Nope. That’s not good enough this time, John. I want to feel tongue. Now get back there!”

Obama has decided to crush his enemies publicly. He believes he can’t lose. He wants total capitulation and begging for forgiveness.

I just picture him sitting cross-legged in front of his fire -
his horned helmet slightly askew on top of his jug-eared head -
scowling into the flames -
holding his mug with his pinky finger held out -

Obama is making it hard for the Quislings to cave, but cave they will, and Obama knows they will cave. The American poeple put forth poor Republican nominees over and over.

“...The American poeple put forth poor Republican nominees over and over....”

The Republican Party is dead.
I don’t believe conservatives are going to vote for “the lesser of two evils” anymore. I know I won’t. I’ve done it over and over again. No more.
Now, is the time to go forth with a strong, Pro-American, 3rd party. Now is the time to get it going. We have a year before the mid-terms to get our candidates out there in front of people and on the ballots. Let the GOPe go via of the Whigs or they can just join up with the fellow brothers & sisters in the communist Rat party.

Boehner, you're the dumbest Jerk in the History of America.
GTFO and let a real leader take the Speakership.

Unreal. How many times is this IDIOT going to let Obama pull his
pants to his knees on the court?

very few in today’s America even know what the word “propaganda” means.

Isn't that a pasta dish?

I think

Health care has been sold to the chins as a population control...total failure and they pull the rug out on the market.GOP has a guy who crys in public to negotiate.

On the flip side implementation would probly result in eventual devaluation of the dollar they dont want that yet.

At the same time....metals supply is so tight I think the suppression is about to fail....that will piss’m off too.

So they are probly lookin at the land collection deals but gun confiscation is going backwards because some of the Dems want to get elected again.No joy.

All thats left is Alaska oil.cant move on that yet either.
With the military intact.....

Oh well isnt globalization fun?

Any statements that are not statements of historical fact (including statements containing the words “will,” “believes,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” and similar expressions) should also be considered to be forward-looking statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including:.....every thing

What the GOP should do is start building Nukes and threaten to kill Americans.
Since Obama will Negoiate with terror states, if may be the only way.
