The Party that can't say yes

The American PEOPLE owe 14 trillion dollars in debt and counting. If the American taxpayer isn't responsible for that debt,

who is?

The American Taxpayer works until May 15th every year to settle his obligation to government. At some point, government has to say, "hey, we are already taking half of what you make, now we have to step up and be responsible."

The government needs to spend less of what they take in, and dedicate some of that money to paying down the debt. Asking the taxpayer to fork over more is obscene.

Forcing Obama to raise the ceiling on his own and show his true colors will be nothing short of epic.
The Emperor has no Clothes.
 
They don't call them the "Party of No" for nothing ;) they only have two priorities:
1) Keeping the wealthy & super wealthy very happy
2) Tossing their "base" a social-issue bone from time to time to keep them voting against their own interests.

I guess the democRAts forgot in 2006 when Bush wanted to raise the debt ceiling they did the same to him . I dont think the Rep should give in. When the DemocRATS ran the house, senate and WH they could not even pass a budget but now its urgent. GEEZ wiz, Its urgent so they can blame the REP so Obummer can blame everything on them
 
What the hell is wrong with Obama? Why isn't he going after corporations and the rich, instead of the people? And the retards think he is a socialist? Dumb fucks!!:lol:

Yup.. steal from the corporations and give it to the government to spent.. Man, thats really been working out well so far...with the added bonus of less jobs and higher costs to consumers.... brilliant...:lol:

4.1 billion added to the deficit daily...that's the ... wrong direction...

Most of the money the government borrows ends up in the hands of corporations eventually.

I think you're right....If the government would get out of shit they don't belong in, that might change...as it is their rubbing each others backs..
 
For days, the White House has infuriated its Democratic allies in Congress by offering House Republicans more and more in exchange for a deal to raise the debt ceiling and prevent default. But it was never enough, and, on Friday evening, it became clear that it may never be enough. Speaker John Boehner again walked away from the “grand bargain” he had been negotiating with President Obama, leaving the country teetering on the brink of another economic collapse.

At the White House podium a few minutes later, the president radiated a righteous fury he rarely displays in public, finally placing the blame for this wholly unnecessary crisis squarely where it belongs: on Republicans who will do anything to upend his presidency and dismantle every social program they can find. “Can they say yes to anything?” he asked, noting the paradox of Republicans, who claim that financial responsibility and debt reduction are their biggest priorities, rejecting yet another deal that would have cut that debt by at least $3 trillion.

But you see, every one of Obama's proposals has included tax increases, which Republicans have said in no uncertain terms they will not support. He can call them "closing loopholes" or some other euphamism, but it means taking money away from Americans and giving it to governemnt when government hasn't proved it can spend responsibly from the get go.

Do you have a point?

You are really missing the whole point, aren't you.

"Corporate Welfare", a spectacularly inaccurate term, is money that was not taken away from corporations.

Regular old welfare is the redistribution of money that has been taken from corporations.

In your understanding of the country, there are no property rights. All wealth is the property of the government and all labor, property and effort are the property of the government. It is only by their largess that we are allowed to use it for a time before committing it to their care as they have owned it all along.

I have clear title to a house, property and some cars. I have an income stream earned from working full time. There are various investments and personal savings that I have diligently saved instead of squandering my cash. In your vision of the country, is there any property or wealth that is mine?

This is the same old Republican bullshit...it always boils down to welfare.

Welfare is a tiny percentage of the federal budget.

Most of the budget is Social Security, Medicare, and defense.

The Republicans want to kill Social Security and Medicare, so their buddies on Wall Street can get their hands on all that delicious retirement money.

Civics lesson number two.

Congress raises the debt ceiling, not Obama.

So if a debt ceiling raise is not passed, it's the fault of Congress.

And when you use phrases like Obumma and democRAts, it makes you look dumb.
