He didn’t seem terribly optimistic about the chances a debt deal will be reached by August 2nd.

King Obama is going to be ticked if this messes up his big party/fundraiser/tribute on DefaultDay Aug. 3rd or his 2 week vacation on Martha’s Vineyard or any of his other vacations !

McConnell-REID plan ? That sounds ungood .

I would agree to a $2 Trillion debt limit raise and a $1 Trillion dollar cut. That would have to be in one year of spending cuts.

I say raise the Debt Limit to what the Democrats want, for EVERY dollar of rise, that amount has to be cut from CURRENT spending.

Get er done.

By the way, every Democrat for the last 3 years has been breaking the law! If you do not have a budget and you vote for appropriations, you are breaking the law. I think they should all be arrested!

By the way, the Republicans have voted for budgets and the Democrats have not, so do not bring up that Republicans are in the same boat.

Arrest them all.

We are starting to see signs of Republican backpedaling. If these people think 2010 was a bloodbath, let them cave on this issue and 2012 will seem like child’s play.

Sen. Lindsey Graham: McConnell-Reid Debt Plan Is Dead

“dead” !…I’d like a second opinion – could somebody canvas the “hot-bod” contests to find casey anthony so she can tell us if it’s just with the Nanny.

By all means to please the Tea Party let’s not raise the debt ceiling. Let’s allow the US to default on it’s debt, you know that thing called interest payments. Which will have to have higher interest rates in the future since most bond holders will be weary of extending us credit. Let’s allow China to take over the US, since after all they basically have paid for Bush’s war. Let’s also force the money that the US spent on the bail out of Wall Street and have them pay back every last cent. There is your Trillion Dollars. Let’s have all the Banks that are being bailed out pay back every last cent,

I’m tired of the Republicans/Tea Party’ers  being Republicans/Tea Baggers first and it seems like Americans LAST.  Do what is right for America. They need to know that they can actually vote for the good of the country and not follow a “pledge” that they took for the Tea Party. The Democrats voted for the good of the country for Reagan’s budgets.

I have to come to the conclusion that the Tea Party is following Rush Limbaugh wishing that Obama fails, but when Obama fails so does America. America cannot fail. We need to raise taxes on the top 2$ again. And when we are getting close to paying off the national debt lets do the right thing this time instead of starting unjust wars. Let’s repair roads, fix bridges, care for the sick and elderly aka provide for the general welfare at hand. * it’s part of the US Constitution if you aren’t aware unless you are a Bushite who thinks that it’s just a g-damn piece of paper.

It is not necessary to “default” on the debt, unless Obama and Geithner WANT to do so.

I hope McConnell’s plan is dead- it deserves to die.

Funny, the leftists are the ones with all the special protected class monikers, African American, Muslim American, Gay American, Mexican American, etc etc etc.

The rest of your hogwash is exactly that.

The republicans are a bunch of self serving AHoles and you know it. The President is willing to make cuts in benefits for the poor and middle-class, but the republicans aren’t willing to increase taxes for the filthy rich. WHY IS THAT? Because the rich pay millions of dollars to repub campaigns..
