The only thing that has kept the stock market from a panic is the few holdouts in the House that don’t want taxes raised.

Businessmen of wall street understand companies go bankrupt and default all the time, it’s expected. It’s more taxes being thrown into a black hole of debt that would unnerve the markets.

Of course, what would Congress know about running a business unless it had ‘incentives’ ‘special tax treatment’ ‘bailouts’ ‘protections’ ‘lobbyists’ ‘exemptions’ involved.

Well, what 0bama really meant by having the “capacity” to pay bills is the ability to raise the debt ceiling and keep borrowing. In the twisted financial minds of many in government, deficits don’t matter if you can continue to borrow.

We don’t have a AAA political system because our President is running up debt at a D for default rate.

The Dems are the only brain dead specie who love democracy when it gives them power and then hate democracy when it takes it away or just threatens to take it away.

Obama: “We Do Not Have AAA Political System To Match Our AAA Credit Rating”

Translation:

Obama: “The revolution where the exploited get to dictate to their exploiters is here!”

We have the number one political system in the world, the fact that no one can have their way is evidence of this!

The guy is a Marxist.

Excellent synopsis of O'bama's rise to power.

But I'd say you are being a little too kind to the _resident.

Yes, you Obama, along with Pelosie, Reid and the DumbA$$es who voted for you, are the bloody problem.

Where was Peolsie’s budget for the last 2 years?
Where was Reid's budget for the last 2 years?

Who verbally assaulted Congressman Ryan's Plan live on national TV? Why did the Senate table that bill?


What Debt/Ceiling plan passed the House with a bipartisan vote?Why did Reid table it?

Why did you propose a budget that was voted down in the Senate 97-0?

Obama, Reid and Pelosie STFU and eat your bloody peas. EPIC FAIL!!!!

The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. … Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. - Senator Barack Obama (rev. 2006)

It only works AAA level when there’s NOT a socialist scumbag in the Whitehouse.

I kinda like STFUBO.

That said, we’ve got to be more unified in opposing him. He and the press got a golden opportunity this week to show the GOP circular firing squad in action, and of course that was trumpeted all over the place.

We need to get our forces aligned and stop giving him an opening.

That said, I think he plans - and has been planning all along - to do something “unilateral,” because that’s the Alinsky way (and I’m sure Bill Ayres is whispering in his ear every day, because Bambi is dumb as a post and only does what he is told to do for the leftist cause).

The Dems won’t oppose it at all. The question is whether the GOP will be united enough to oppose it and get the kind of popular support necessary to make him STFU. Not if we keep on the way we have been going...
