Would save you $40,000.00+per person&$'s in court costs. Why can't the rich give? Why do the poor have to give and give.Yet the rich you are telling me will have to lay off workers because...hmmm...THEY ARE GREEDY. Not the small businesses but BIG business. So stop with the FEAR MONGERING&do something to benefit the disappearing middle class and poor. Why don't all you fat cats pass some money out to those that need it-IN AMERICA-WOW new concept but YES there are people in GREAT NEED IN THE USA. Isn't America a great country? Depends who your father or mother was depends on what you've done to get where you are...for some. For others they are better off dead is essentially what you are saying.

I can see he still has his same spots. He still doesn't want to get anything done. It's to bad the American people have to put up with him.

These Republicans do not care about the deficit nor the debt ceiling. They have spent virtually all their time trying to outlaw abortions, stop women from getting birth control, keeping gays from marrying or being judges and passing laws like the one the House did today that says it is OK to assault Native Americans, gays and lesbians.

All the talk about the budget is just a political smokescreen to coverup their social agenda. That social agenda is the most important thing they can go because it is the basis for the money they get from the evangelicals who are their only source of funds. In addition, it is well established that the Republicans have sworn, in writing their allegiance to Grover Norquist over the United States of America.

The only thing Democrats know how to do is demonize. They have no intelligence and behave like cowards. This confrontation was caused by their failure to enact a budget in the first place as required by law. The budget put up by POTUS did not receive even one vote from his own party. With dynamic Harry Reid in the lead, nothing will happen.

One can only hope the voters of his district in Ohio are tired of this "weeper" and dump him. The Republicans keep breaking the deals that they originally made in order to make their corporate masters happy.

Republiconman Bohner is demanding budget cuts, all the wile the GOP is trying to get the President to sign off on BILLIONS for next year's defense bill.

Smells like GOP cars only about propping up their defense industry cohorts at the expense of taking care of Americans.

Gee, this sounds like a familiar theme in their ideology. Raid the US treasury to feed defense dependent companies.

Answer: Companies that are too reliant on defense budget handouts need to diversify their product lines. St. Louis is a national model city for such defense conversion. It is now an aerospace, biomedical research hub with many successful businesses. Moreover, they have been very resilient during the recession.

In other words: GOP, go tell your defense companies to do their homework and quick sucking from the US Treasury. American tax payers can no longer prop-up wanna-be defense contracters. Back in the early 1990's the motto of the day was "diversify or die". They had better learn that now or else.

House Speaker John Boehner needs to go. He needs to be fired—immediately. He is indeed a national threat to this country. In his one year as Speaker, he has displayed that he is not equipped to hold that office and he needs to give up the job. He is like a little boy wearing big man pants. The Speaker position and its responsibilities is way above John Boehner's capabilities; he needs to be fired—immediately.

This has been the worst session of Congress under Boehner's leadership. Congress has had it lowest approval rating and passed the least amount of significant public laws. Boehner has effectively gridlocked the government and is driving this country into ruin. His actions are selfish, self serving, reckless and unpatriotic. He has waged war against Americans in his blinding attempt to defeat President Barack Obama. He has contributed to sabotaging the economy—impacting million of American lives: your neighbors, brothers, sisters, mothers, grandparents, sons, and daughters— in his quest to expand Republican control of government. He has bet against Americans and he should pay for his actions by voting him out of office—not rewarded with another term.

Under Boehner's leadership the House has blocked every effort to pass meaningful laws to help this economy grow, including the American Jobs Act and a number of other economic initiatives. His brinkmanship led to the debt ceiling debacle last summer that led to America losing its triple A credit rating and he has threatened to do the same thing this year. He is fighting against implementing defense spending cuts that were agreed to under the Budget Control Act of all year. Instead he wants to expand defense spending and cut poor people support programs like food stamps, school lunch, meals on wheels, etc., to pay for it. Instead of focusing on job creation Boehner has been focused on restricting abortions, dismantling the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and rolling back women rights and protection, especially with the Violence Against Women Act.

John Boehner is a threat to our country. Anyone who purposefully conspires to derail America's economic success and diminish the existence of millions of Americans is an enemy. John Boehner has to go!

Snippet from the last link dated September 2008 right before your hero left town:

"Buried deep in the hundred pages of bailout legislation is a provision that would raise the statutory ceiling on the national debt to $11.315 trillion. It'll be the 7th time the debt limit has been raised during this administration. In fact it was just two months ago, on July 30, that President Bush signed the Housing and Economic Recovery Act, which contained a provision raising the debt ceiling to $10.615 trillion."
