here's a guy who says he want to cut us from our "entitlements". as this guy states 'i cannot go without a pay check', what a self centered idiot. so why does he want people who recieve Social Security, and V.A.Benefits have their checks cut short in the future. We earned those Benefits after putting our lives on battlefields after they (congress) declare war, and after we've worked hard through-out our lives, and paying into Retirement for Social Security. this guy has drank to much expensive wine, and it has effected his brain

No, the reason they lose is because they are big spending statists warmongers, who have to take a poll every morning in order to know what they believe that day. They have no convictions and are concerned about nothing except where the next campaign contribution is coming from. They are very much like their colleagues on the other side of the isle.
Sure it can't continue like this, but the gop'ers want to dismantle social security, medicare and medicaid because they think 47% of the population are freeloaders. That just isn't true. What is true is the gop'ers are being lied to by their leaders and they don't ask the right questions. Ask your people in charge if all 47% of the people are all freeloaders and then listen to them stumble to give a straight answer. That's why they want to burn down the barn to get rid of the rats! And there are some rats, but not all of them are rats.
They're way too involved in their pretend wars (war on religion, war on Christmas, war on men, the culture war, war on marriage, etc) to ask any questions about the GOP. I've found plenty wrong with Obama and the Democrats but there's much more wrong with the GOP. But if you ask a Teaper they'll say that 100% of the blame is on the Democrats. As if the GOP is somehow immune to criticism.
Alright, now we're getting somewhere. And with Congress' pay on the line you won't believe how well they'll learn to compromise. This was a great idea.
ULGNUD replies: Don't be silly. Obama offered handouts and the GOP didn't. The liberals control most of the media. In simple terms that is how he got back in. It has little to do with repudiation.

It will make the Dem's job of winning future elections so much simpler if you 'cons continue to believe that. Thanks. I mean, really, thanks. I'm sure its so much easier to believe that than to think you are flawed in some way or have an unpopular message. That way, like a good conservative, you will never have to change anything about yourself. Life is so much simpler that way, when you can blame others for your own problems and faults.
"The White House said today that President Obama would not veto a House Republican plan to suspend the debt limit for three months". Why? Simple, the do nothing Senate has not acted and will not act.
collie61 the "do nothing Senate" will pass any reasonable budget submitted by the House. The key word is reasonable. Not some tea party bill that tries to guts Social Security, Medicare and other programs.
Here's a news flash: The next budget proposals from the Democrats will all include 'revenue enhancements' (tax increases).
This is long, long overdue. The Republicans were eager to talk in generic terms about all of the tax loopholes they were willing to close in the presidential campaign, and in the first round of 'fiscal cliff' talks.
Now, we'll hopefully see them follow through and go along with the Dems on actually closing them. I'm a top 20%er which puts me in the meat of the highest paying people in terms of percentages.
When people making ten or a hundred times what I earn pay little or nothing, that's something that needs to be fixed. When highly profitable corporations pay little or nothing, or in some cases get subsidies of my tax dollars, that needs to get fixed.
If they want to raise my tax rate, go ahead, as long as everybody who makes more than me pays at least the same total rate that I do, regardless of whether they make their money by working for it like I do, or by moving money around, or by inheriting it.
OK, Republicans, let's see if you'll follow through on what you said you are willing to do.
Your rambling left out the fact that Phil Mickelson who is in your 'tax shelter' category pays 63% in taxes. There is a minusule few who seek tax shelters. Stop making it sound like they all do. Remember, over 40% of income earning Americans do not pay any federal taxes. Maybe you can comment about them. Not.
Sounds like we have a mittens 47%'er here folks. Where were you guys when this was discussed, numerous times? In your bunkers I suppose. Here's the facts...the majority of your 40% (mittens 47%?) of Americans that do not pay income taxes are-senior citizens on Soc.Sec. from the Years of work they paid Into SS, the military coming back from risking their lives to Save Your Sorry A$$ & can't find work, the disabled who Can't work (including the military), only small minded radical right wing teabaggers refuse to admit to the who the majority of the '47%' Really Are (changing it to 40% doesn't fool anyone about who's a$$ your head is up). Use the brain God gave you & research facts before 'believing as truth' on something you've heard on Faux Noise, Limblob, Hannity, Beck, etc.,etc. "A minuscule (sp ck-try it) few who seek tax shelters" are You Serious? There is more money of the top 2% & corporations overseas than this country will ever see. *sigh* go away until you have something valid to say.
This is such a joke, just cut spending stop playing these games... They put an end to the Bush temporary tax cuts, now let's do the same with the budget deficit... Eat your peas!!!@!!
So the plan is to NOT increase the limit, but to allow the government to exceed the limit. Does anyone actually believe this nonsense? What's the chance of the U.S. paying down the over-spend in May when the 3 months 'grace' expires? The government cannot pay down the current debt.
