I saw more on this story today on Fox.. it was riveting.

And now this is where I'm at, even though i know I'll get pummeled, probably by both sides by saying this:

I heard one thing from one group and another from another.. I mean, you'd think there would be some kind of... I don't know.. Where is the person who is at least somewhat as undecided as I was (not so much Am, but WAS)

This is how I have dealt with my confusion after listening to both groups, the pro and the con (re the bill McCarthy came up with)

I just like the Freedom Caucus best so even though I want to know more about this debt ceiling thing, I trust them... What I don't get about them is this: Were they (are they) willing to sacrifice the good for the sake of the perfect? If I understood better exactly how Congress works, maybe I wouldn't be saying all this... I mean, it seems they could have hashed out a better bill, one that the Freedom folks would like better?

I wish Fox or some other station would, every now and then... have a class on Government or something... They shouldn't assume all their viewers... had a great education. I went to one of the worst grade/high schools in the nation, I have heard. Then later I took some college classes and I have always loved reading, have stuck to non-fiction all my adult life. But still, Congress and all it's methods still baffles me.. which is why I was riveted to the coverage... I was learning so much..

so to sum up

Because Congresswoman Mace and others.. the Freedom Caucus don't like the bill

neither do I

Confusion has ended... always a good thing. I will continue to learn more but if I had to vote today... well, at least maybe it's a good thing some American trusts SOME Congresspersons? I mean, you know... far as I know they are more/less trustworthy...

:)

I think it was Mace who said that .. my words.. the 1 or 2 trillion saved will be devoured by the 6 or 7 trillion added! No, that was Cavuto who said such...

Yes, loving Joe Biden's ability to own the GOP.

Biden holy glare mopped floor.jpg
 
I wish there was a way that Biden's mental illness was an issue in crucial debates about the budget. Biden refused to negotiate with the republican party because he knew he was unable and the minions in the mainstream media would defend him. Radical democrats got away with referring to honest and patriotic republicans as "terrorists".
 
yeh, you'd suggest them watching lying, sued for lying cnn

that hires disgraced FIRED people who weaponized and politicized gummit

:rolleyes: :banghead:

Sigh. So because someone says something negative about Fox, that automatically means they are pro-CNN? Did it ever occur to you that some people don't like ANY of the mainstream news networks, because they're all basically mouthpieces for the PTSB?

Your shallow binary mindset is one of the biggest problems in this country today, imho.

Turn them all off.

If you want to learn the proper role of government, we have a very good guide in the Constitution. And the Federalst is historically considered the blueprint for it.

Colllectively speaking, the talking heads who are employed by the cable news entertainment programming platforms aren't qualified to lead a lunch line.

They exist to dumb you down.

If President Biden (the sleepy guy who beat Trump), had issues, all the GOP would be screaming for his removal. They meet with him. None come away stating he's got cognitive issues.

The people who actually wrote the Constitution? Government men. :auiqs.jpg:
 
4.5 Trillion budget is a win for the GOP
:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

What a Banana Republic this failed nation has become

4.5 T is a loss for the entire MIDDLE CLASS

I'm not sure I get this...

?
 
Fake McCarthy did not even get rid of the 85,000 Gestapo IRS Stasi
maybe he couldn't..?

I don't know what to think but as stated... when one doesn't know what to think one can turn to Most Trusted Congresspersons...

I know some of us don't trust anyone... but sometimes you have NO CHOICE but to do so..

When people do not u/stand the inner workings of Congress...and I ambeginning to think most Americans do not... no, wait... I know they don't..

you have no choice but to trust...

the Freedom Caucus

that's your opinion. But I don't pay attn to personalities. I don't even know the inflection in one of their voices bc I do CCs all the time,a very good way to rid your mind of unknown prejudices (I"ve heard people say "I just don't like that guy's voice!" Please!)

so anyhow... no, I am not turning off the news. People who say that imply that all the guests are in cahoots with the news station they appear on and of course are all lying...

right

andthe likelihood of that is.....?

(except that that does describe CNN, apparently)
 
Why does Yellen get to decide that the Debt is going to default on such and such a day...

very odd

seems to me it would either default on ONE particular day or it would not...

but she has changed the date for this catastrophic event....

what is she the real president or something... ?

and that brings up another important question: Who is running the country anyhow?

Does anyone really know the answer to that?
 
no one has an answer RE Yellen and etc... probably because a lot of people here are focused more on such important topics as What are Harry and Megan up to lately?

:rolleyes:

Anyhow, if socialism takes over as per the goal of the elite dims, we will have no taxpayers to speak of and the whole damn system will collapse and everyone will be poor... except the elites who already made their big bucks off the capitalistic system

which scenario will not bother the elites' consciences because they don't have one...
