Raise Taxes or Granny Gets It

[Gipper]

There is enough money coming in to pay the debt, social security, and the soldiers. so how do the checks get covered? The gov merely has to pay them with the money that is coming in. All the politicians know this and when some of them say that granny gets it they are flat out lying.

There are plenty of other things that can be cut.

Exactly. But, those solutions do not fit BO's plan. BO wants a default or shut down. He is not negotiating fairly. He thinks this is his moment for getting re-elected like BJ Bubba's deal back in the 90s.

And, the media is carrying his water like they always do.

If that were true than there would be no need to raise the debt limit would there. After all, we would be in surplus and paying the debt down.

In other words, the people telling you there is enough money are being less than truthful with you, and you want to believe them, so you believe them.

However, the facts are quite clearly different.

No,,, The Democrats in Senate and House will be taking a hike.

No doubt some of them will.

Then, when nothing changes, the Democrats will be back to take the blame once again.

Much the same way the voters booted the Republicans in '06, expecting things to change.

Democrats didnt learn their lesson 2 years ago.
THESE PEOPLE ARE IN CHARGE

THESE CLOWNS ARE NOT

 

[PLC1]

A bunch of guys standing around holding signs and wearing funny hats are in charge?

No wonder this country is in so much trouble.

 

[steveox]

Funny Hats? That was our Revolution back in 1770s. These people know what this means to them

What our founding fathers bought them

Funny Hats? That was our Revolution back in 1770s.

The above picture shows our revolution back in the 1770s? Really?

I didn't know that they even had microphones back then, let alone cars and buses.

This "stuff" about the U.S. Constitution and U.S. history is way over your head. Just skip over the "technical" stuff and wait for the thread to revert back to leftist bumper sticker slogans and defending Obama's ineptitude and ignorance.

Or, we could do the adult thing and stay on topic and discuss the thread "Raise Taxes or Granny Gets It" like we are supposed to do, eh?

I still think President Obama needs to grow an even bigger pair of balls and announce that Government checks will not be going out to any people or organizations who are in a Republican Congressional district. I mean, if it as Bachman and others say, and the President can pick and choose who gets paid and who doesn't, then lets let the people who don't want the debt ceiling raised be the ones that don't get the debt ceiling raised, eh?

Those voters already don't want to be paid, so it won't be much of a bad deal for them.

What a joke of a proposal...how about we stop sending money to districts who get more back than they paid in to begin with?

However, if that actually did occur, it would be the end of the Democratic Party for the next decade.

I seem to recall a quote from the President at the beginning of his term.

"Elections have consequences, and at the end of the day, I won."

Now that the tables are reversed, how quickly that sentiment goes out the window. Let us not forget either that President Obama voted AGAINST raising the debt ceiling last time...interesting the 180 he has done.
