GOP refuses to pass clean debt-ceiling increase

There are a few more Democrat buzzwords employees of the Democrat party are told to work into a conversation.

Hostage,hostage taking,ransom,legislative terrorism,political jihad...
They get a little pat on the head from the democrat party whenever they works these in..
 
The GOP has been threatening default since 2010. The GOP will be blamed for it too, and rightfully so. Now go ahead and reply with the usual "librul media" whiney-poo post. :lol:
Obama needs control and censure. He has racked up the highest National Debt to the $17 Trillion mark now "because yes he can."

US National Debt Clock: $16,965,434,300,000.00+

Congress controls the purse strings Becki. They are complicit whether you want to believe it or not. Besides, we need to borrow to get us out of this :up: Republican-caused recession


If that were true then Obama would have to support their budget, and there would be no shutdown. But Obama does not support their budget, so Obama shut this bitch down according to you.

More or less you just made an ass of yourself.
 
Why would the GOP threaten to let the debt default?

Are they mad?
Lost your mind, sweetie?

Mad King Barack Obama doesn't have the wits to pass a viable budget. He just wants to spend and spend and spend and let taxpayers pay and pay and pay so he can loaf with his lazy buddies for the duration of his irresponsible life. If you give freebies to people who didn't earn them, their last words could be something like "This goddamned Obamaphone!" as they hit a law enforcement officer with their pretty little black car nobody would dare repossess, and put dents in a few cop cars blockading their path. :evil:

It's stupid to give other people's money away to people sucking off the gummint tit, blaming everybody else for their own screw-ups, etc. Some of the people who are being overtaxed can't afford college tuitions or retirement accounts to prepare their kids for the future and try to make ends meet after they retire.
 
Boehner has now stated that he and the GOP will hold the debt-ceiling increase, and indeed the financial health of the USA & the World, hostage to their budget cuts.

The Nation is being held hostage by republican madmen.

The Nation is being held hostage by 2 men who refuse to negotiate and make the cuts needed on our government spending. Their names are Senator Harry Reid and President Obama.
The Dem's think that cutting a measly 60 Billion on this budget is all that can be cut.
It isn't even close to what really needs to be cut.
The Big Entitlement programs needs to be reformed and the Dems refuse to deal with it.

This makes me very sad. I thought they were smarter than this. I thought they were more Patriotic than this.

A partial govt. shutdown in order to get budget concessions is one thing, but threatening a debt default is a whole different creature.

This is a very dangerous path the GOP is taking. :(



Unfortunately, Congress consistently brings the government to the edge of default before facing its responsibility. This brinkmanship threatens the holders of government bonds and those who rely on Social Security and veterans benefits. Interest rates would skyrocket, instability would occur in financial markets, and the federal deficit would soar. The United States has a special responsibility to itself and the world to meet its obligations. It means we have a well-earned reputation for reliability and credibility -- two things that set us apart from much of the world."

Ronald Reagan, 1968

Yeah, but the GOP passed a bill funding vets but the Democrats can't be bothered to pass it, Obama threatened to veto it. So who's traveling the dangerous path here? Who slaps WWII vets in the face by not letting them see their own memorial? That is being unpatriotic. How dare you call yourself an American and do that to the men and women who literally saved the world from a Nazi dictator?

Perhaps this is what it takes, someone had to do it, and it might as well be now. If Obama doesn't want to cut spending or reduce the deficit, I guess this is the only way to make him listen.
 
The GOP will take the blame for a default, just as they are taking the blame for the shutdown. You cannot fix Stupid.....

But you can elect him President.

The President's approval ratings are going lower and lower. People aren't buying his bullshit anymore. Obama has been trying to spook the markets and is heedless as to what this means.

The GOP has proposed many solutions and the administration and Democrats have rejected every single one. You dont govern by refusing to talk and negotiate.

72% of the american people are against the far right's hostage taking of the nation. Their approval ratings are in the teens and falling. The nation has had it with that radical right wing terrorist attacks on the country.

OOOOOOooooooo! BURN!!

Obama is not minding his fiscal ps and qs, Dot Com. Plus he made this loudmouth lime assertion he would not negotiate over his little spending spree government that needs to be watched and watched closely.

We're not accepting responsibility for Obama's over the top irresponsibility.

Obama has to be the reincarnation of Mad King Ludwig of eighteenth century Germany to think he can spend other people's earnings on his giving it away to people who's last and final words could be "This goddamned Obamaphone!" before trying to run over a cop in her way and putting dents in cop cars with her lethal-weapon luxury car.

I see. So you don't believe Obama Hellcare is an act of domestic terrorism?!?!?!?!

They had no issue with this during the Bush years. Debt ceiling increases passed easily, and without conservatives gnashing their teeth.

This recent history is one of the reasons that the GOP is taking most of the blame. The American voters know that the GOP doesn't really have a problem increasing the debt ceiling, because they did it so often in recent memory during Dumbya Era.

Perhaps it's time to end that trend starting now. Doesn't matter who does it. Bush, Obama.. whoever. Democrats are going to take the heat here if they either A) refuse to negotiate on the debt ceiling, or B) refuse to raise the debt ceiling.

So why don't you get you head out of your backside and see that Obama and Bush are no better than the other as far as spending goes. Obama still wants to raise the debt ceiling so we can continue to borrow more money and further indebt ourselves to foreign countries like Japan and China.

I heard him say that on This Week. George Stephanopolas asked him about 5 times if that's what he meant and he kept saying yes. I don't know whether he means it or if there is a stopgap measure but if it happens, I don't know what's to become of us.

Even before the show was over, there was a response from the WH.

White House officials quickly accused Mr. Boehner of taking a hard-line position that brings the nation closer to default. In response to Mr. Boehner's contention that the House couldn't pass a bill that would fund the government with no strings attached, White House officials said he should put the bill up for a vote and see if that is the case.

The only reason that is is because irresponsibile liars like you contort the truth of the matter attempting to make people believe your lies by repeating them over and over and over again.

We sent those good men to Congress to make Obama behave fiscally. Of course he's bleating and telling people like you to give Republicans a hard time. He hates Republicans and calls us his "ENEMIES."

Tough bananas if he is the only person in the entire world he thinks does not have to negotiate his irresponsible acts away that puts the bite on every American's wallet so he can give luxury to people who blow their money away on bongs and will still be poor when he gives all the money in every bank away to them. Obama can't wrap his mind around the fact that other people actually own their own money in those banks he'd like to rip off till there's nothing left over.

You Demmies don't control your leaders. If you don't shape up and cause him to be a responsible member of society and cut the lying crap, you're going to wind up being the parasites who ate the host, and you'll have nothing left to eat when you're done with us.

Every year, they have to raise the debt ceiling and every year I ask the same question. Care to take a stab and answering it?

If we're going to raise it every year, why have a debt ceiling?
 
Obama in 2006 when he opposed raising the debt ceiling:

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.

Obama: Not Always a Fan of Upping Debt Ceiling | National Review Online



Apparently, he no longer cares about shifting the burden of bad choices onto the back of our children and grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Did you notice that they left out the part where Obama said
"The problem is, is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents - #43 added $4 trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back -- $30,000 for every man, woman and child. That's irresponsible. It's unpatriotic."
 
Why do you continue to lie about default? Are you just trolling now?

if we don't raise the debt ceiling by mid-October, we will default on the debt.

This is a fact, deal with it.

No it isn't.
The Government brings in enough to pay the debt each month.
We are not going to default.
If we default, it will be because Obama wants to continue to punish the American people; to coerse his way - he does not negotiate. The man thinks he is a king.
10% of what we bring in will servise the debt - get real. Peach is correct!

there are enough democrat and republican votes right now in the house to pass the budget as well as the debt ceiling

the traitors are not in the majority

speaker boehner will not allow them to vote

he has abused his power for no other reason than to keep the t-baggers from kicking him out of his chair of power

shame on him for ruining the government just for personal reasons ....... but how typical of a powerful republican
