The Obama Depression: How Will You Cope?...

[ba1614]

Typcially kicking the can down the road. This econmic mess was brought to you by the TeaParty and the Republicans willingness to bring the country to the brink of default and then by not doing enough to right the ecomonic ship with a balanced approach to solving the deficit problem. They should all resign in disgrace.

Please explain what the Tea Party has done that has resulted in $16,000,000,000,000 of debt.

Ain't it something? A handful of freshmen congressmen that are the only ones willing to do the right thing are responsible. LOL, only on the looney left and rhino right is that shit possible.

 

[J.E.D]

Please explain what the Tea Party has done that has resulted in $16,000,000,000,000 of debt.

Why? It's the downgrading of our credit rating not the debt. And they certainly had something to do with bringing the country to the bring of a default.

No they didnt.
You have been told they did....but they didnt.
They said what they wanted and it wasnt what the democrats wanted. The democrats siad what they wanted, and it wasnt what the tea party wanted.
So in the end a deal was cut down the middle.
So who do we say was willing to bring the country into default?

A small group of irrlevant, unorganized, racists who have absolutely no physical control over legislation....or a party that has a majorioty in the senate and control of the WH?

LMAO....and you choose the small group of racists.

No, a deal was not cut down the middle. Boehner himself said that he got 98% of what he wanted. Does that sound like a balanced compromise? The Tea Party didn't just say what they wanted, they demanded everything they wanted or they would let the country default. This isn't a theory. They didn't make a secret about it. They actually stood up at microphones saying that they were willing to let the country default. S&P said that the main reason for their decision to downgrade was the political brinkmanship over the raising of the debt ceiling. Again, that's not a theory, that is a fact.

Wake up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boehner was playing middle man the entire time
...he was not acting as a republican...he was acting as the speaker you freaking puppet.
The fact that he got 98% of what he wanted is a sign of himi doiung his job properly.
The GOP wanted 4 trillion in cuts......Boehner was willing to go with 2 trillion....he got 1.4

The tea party wanted

NO RAISE OF THE DEBT CEILING
Major cuts in spending
a balanced budget

They got a eiase in the debt ceiling
no balanced budget.

SO what the hell....do you even listen to what is really going on or do you just regurgitate what they want you to say??????

Actually, it's total bullshit. We never were in danger of defaulting. But hey, have your fantasies.

Ok, you can't be this clueless. Our debt rating was downgraded because of the amount of our debt and no plan to reduce it. And you argue that adding $2,000,000,000,000 more debt is sensible?

That's borderline stupid...

What's borderline stupid is that the right keeps denying that S&P downgraded the US mainly because of the fiasco surrounding the raising of the debt ceiling.

CNN.com - Transcripts

COOPER: Why did S&P downgrade the United States' credit rating today?

JOHN CHAMBERS, HEAD OF SOVEREIGN RATINGS, STANDARD & POOR'S: Well, I think there were two reasons.

The first reason is the one that you have outlined, being our view of the political settings in the United States have been altered. We have taken them down a notch, the rating down a notch. The political brinkmanship we saw over raising the debt ceiling was something that was really beyond our expectations, the U.S. government getting to the last day before they had cash management problems.

COOPER: So it's interesting. You're saying without a doubt, the recent debate, the recent roadblocks in Congress, the tenor, the timing, the tone of the debate had a major impact on this.

CHAMBERS: Yes.

Yeah, ok, champ. I guess when S&P said that we were in danger of defaulting and that politicians bringing the US gov't to the brink of default caused them to downgrade the US credit rating, they were just making things up. Sit down. You're clueless.

Only the brainwashed, braindead Tea Party is right, doncha know? Rush Limbaugh is a magic moron, and every non bought off expert is crazy? Compromise is communist...

The ones who wanted 4 trillion in cuts and a balanced budget and no raise in the debt ceiling?....but got 1.5 trillion in cuts and no balanced budget and a rais ein the debt ceiling?

Jeez....I suggest you start doing a little more of your own thinking.

The talking heads are making you look silly.

Join the Constitutional Conservative Movement. It's our Nation's only hope at this point. The Socialists/Progressives & Neocons clearly don't have the answers. So just join and as many we will triumph.

I have been preparing for years. Always buying extra food. I have a stock pile of stuff including toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning stuff. I am not doing it all for this but I live in hurricane alley and we do this every year. I have generator with 9 6 gallon gas full to the rim just in case.

You mean the 4 trillion in cuts that were agreed upon by Obama and Boehner, but were then abandoned because the Tea Party refused to budge on the smallest amount of revenue increases? Yep, the Tea Party is soooo smart. They traded 4 trillion in cuts for 1.5 trillion in cuts just so they could say that they didn't raise a tiny amount of revenue. Jeez, I suggest you get some new talking points, because they're not working out for you this time.

....Primarily because......Republicans refuse to honor the (original)....

...Bush Tax-Cut agreement.

Nothing. They were too busy jerking off and fucking their sisters while Bush & Co were busy racking up the first $6 trillion of that debt.

 

[LibocalypseNow]

Does anyone really believe a $1.5 Trillion cut in Debt over ten years really means anything? By then we will have a $23 Trillion Debt or higher. We need a Balanced Budget Amendment. And the Democrats will have to be decimated at the Polls in 2012 for that to happen. They will have to be completely swept from power. I see no hope for the future otherwise.

yeah......I get it.....having an ideology and standing for ones convictions is NEVER worth sacrifice in the yes of a liberal.

You have asbsolutely no idea what it ios like to stand by what you believe.

Thus why you will ALWAYS be manipulated by your politicians.

I pity you.

 

[Avorysuds]

Is it a Depression or is it Opression? get it, O for Obama??? heh heh!

yup...and then it became a visible problem...

ANd one that Obama said he would cut in half.

And so now we all said "wait a minute"

So whats the problem?

 

[LibocalypseNow]

Balanced Budget Amendment. That will solve most of our problems. But the Democrats keep fighting against it. So they will have to be annihilated at the Polls in 2012. Otherwise,there really is no future for our Nation.

Way to completely change the topic. I'm glad you know so much about me. What's the matter, you have no answer? If the biggest cuts were the ultimate goal of the Tea party, then why did they trade 4 trillion in cuts for 1.5 trillion in cuts? They couldn't give up the measly amount of revenue that Dems were asking for in exchange for the biggest possible cuts? Of course they couldn't, because they're clueless ideologues who have no idea how to bargain.
