DC Tom Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Is Obama on TV again? Sorry for not caring. I'm been too busy Netflixing Enterprise We're about to default on our debt. Kind-of an important statement. For someone who's trying to convince his audience he's being bipartisan...he's being partisan as HELL.

DC Tom Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 He's right Fiscally, he's right - Reid's plan, as best I've seen both of them, is the better plan. Politically, he's an ass. "I'm not saying it's anyone's fault...but it's the Republican's fault." Do you want to lead the country, or do you want to campaign for 2012?

/dev/null Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 We're about to default on our debt. Kind-of an important statement. Has Obama made any new statements other than what he and his mouthpieces have been saying the last couple weeks? When Boner speaks do you expect him to say anything different? Kind of an important statement? Nope, just another re-run. At least Enterprise re-runs on Netflix are more entertaining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 "A six-month debt ceiling raise is dangerous to the economy and our credit rating...*" *And my reelection chances. Such disingenuous bull ****.

Kind of an important statement? Nope, just another re-run. At least Enterprise re-runs on Netflix are more entertaining Eight days away from default, and he's giving a statement on it at the open of the Singapore and Hong Kong markets. Yeah, I consider that important...given that I'm short the dollar right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Eight days away from default, and he's giving a statement on it at the open of the Singapore and Hong Kong markets. Again has he said anything new? There's a House Republican plan and a Democrat Senate plan and he's pimping the Democrat plan. Sounds like another re-run Yeah, I consider that important...given that I'm short the dollar right now.

DC Tom Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 And now Boehner's response...and I confess, I can't hear what he's saying. He needs to speak louder to be heard over that tie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Again has he said anything new? There's a House Republican plan and a Democrat Senate plan and he's pimping the Democrat plan. Sounds like another re-run No. "We need to work in a bipartisan fashion, which means doing what the Democrats want. No one's to blame, but the Republicans want to kill grandma, look at me wrapped in the American flag eating apple pie, blah blah blah..." Bohner's at least being smarter. "Look, we tried like hell to be bipartisan, but it didn't work, so here's what we're doing: we're passing a bill in the House while the Senate and White House dick around." Still disingenuous bull ****...but smarter-sounding disingenuous bull ****. Basically the only difference between the two is that Bohner didn't come across as playing election-year politics.

Dave_In_Norfolk Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) There's going to be a default Edited July 26, 2011 by Dave_In_Norfolk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Cut, cap and balance will create jobs? Lies, lies, and damn lies There is NO plan that will balance the budget and get the national debt under control that will create jobs. Not Boehner's, not Obama's, not Reid's. There's going tone a default Even if there isn't, there's probably going to be a downgrade. Really, if you're at S&P or Moody's, and judging the credit rating of Treasury bonds backed by the "full faith and credit" of the country...how the hell do you possibly rate the debt AAA based on this behavior?

Dave_In_Norfolk Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 And Obama is still blaming Bush!!! As he should be! Obama expanded deficits during a recession, like good economic practices call for, Bush just blew up a pretty decent budget situation. And Obama should really be spreading the blame much wider: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-07-26/republican-leaders-voted-for-drivers-of-u-s-debt-they-now-blame-on-obama.html Yet the speaker, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell all voted for major drivers of the nation’s debt during the past decade: Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the 2001 and 2003 Bush tax cuts and Medicare prescription drug benefits. They also voted for the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP, that rescued financial institutions and the auto industry. Together, a Bloomberg News analysis shows, these initiatives added $3.4 trillion to the nation’s accumulated debt and to its current annual budget deficit of $1.5 trillion.

Sorry, the Dems had control they signed off on all of "Bush's" spending. If Senator Obama had every shown up he could have voted against it!!!

Nanker Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Obama's Address: 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, The District. Oh, and our country is bankrupt. We're out of money and we can't borrow any more. We're broke, broke, broke. The libtards won't be happy till they confiscate all the money from everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
