FOX News Poll: Disapproval Of GOP Skyrocketing

[RKMBrown]

Sorry, the debt ceiling is not something that should be negotiated.

As our debt goes up, we need to raise the ceiling.

Its that simple.

See? Thank you for proving my point. Democrats are unwilling to negotiate. Our debt shouldn't be going up, it should be going DOWN.

Common sense.

I'd be happy if our debt merely stayed flat wrt real GDP. That way the debt at least becomes less of a factor or stays the same over time as inflation tries to out run the debt.

 

[Hoffstra]

The Republicans are threatening to let the USA default on its debt, if they don't get the spending cuts they want.

Talk about legislative terrorism.

Common sense.

Considering the national debt hasn't gone down since 1960 I'd say that's a high hope.

But it has in the past gone down a couple times with respect to GDP so there is some hope.

we're talking about the debt limit.

not the actual debt, dumbass.

the spending was approved.

the money has been spent.

we need to raise the debt limit or we become cheaters and liars.....why would you even consider doing that to the USA?


only Conservatives who hate America would consider using a debt default as a weapon to force budget cuts.

Well, that right there is the problem, isn't it?

That's where the negotiation and compromise needs to take place. Five years ... still waiting.

The House refused to go to conference with the Senate on a budget for FY 14.

Liar.

that's your response?

typical Conservative ignorant personal attacks.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

The GOP can offer an extension of the debt ceiling. Seems like a fair trade. $ for exemptions. After-all, isn't that how all the other exemptions happened? $ for exemptions? Isn't that what Obama Care is about, forcing people to pay democrats?

the money has been spent.

the spending was approved.

not raising the debt ceiling now would make us liars and cheats.

why would the GOP even contemplate such an idea?

the money has been spent.

No, it has not been spent.
If it was already spent, you wouldn't need to borrow to fund it.

 

[Hoffstra]

The Republicans are threatening to let the USA default on its debt, if the Democrats don't give them the spending cuts they want.

Its legislative terrorism, pure and simple.

The House refused to go to conference with the Senate on a budget for FY 14.

Where was the budget for the previous four years? Oh.

Perhaps Mr. Boehner is playing the Harry Reid game. One year in, four to go.

Senate now has a budget.

House refuses to go to conference.

Just like how they refuse to vote on a clean CR.

That's a lot of House refusal.

Spend incoming tax receipts on interest first. No default.

So simple, even Dems can understand it.

 

[Harry Dresden]

Yup, people don't know what's in it yet, still Pub fear mongering bs winning...and media cowardice in face of Pub brainwashing charges if anyone tries to explain it...hilarious if it weren't so sad for the country...

people don't know what's in it yet

so your bitching about those who are concerned because.... no one knows whats in it?...so why are you not concerned about that Frankie?......

 

[Hoffstra]

Spend incoming tax receipts on interest first. No default.

So simple, even Dems can understand it.

if it were that simple, they would do just that.

Why isn't it that simple?

 

[Hoffstra]

Why isn't it that simple?

ask the Secretary of the Treasury.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Why isn't it that simple?

ask the Secretary of the Treasury.

He doesn't know how to pay interest first?

 

[MeBelle]

Actually--that poll was conducted on the first 2 days of the month--so I guess we can not talk of trend since the difference in percentages from the previous month is kind of within the error.

Let see what happens after a week, ok?
(even so, the entire oct 1-2 survey does present a gloomy future for the GOP. 49% disapproval found by a pro-conservative pollster is not a good sign. You would think propagandist would soften the numbers?)

You didn't read the survey... *sigh*

 

[Hoffstra]

Why isn't it that simple?

ask the Secretary of the Treasury.

you clearly know more about a nation's finances than the Secretary of the Treasury who went to Georgetown.

If the money has been spent then why are we going through all this?
