Exact quote or an interpretation?Exact quote by my Senator on Joe Scarborough's show this morning.We absolutely have to have this fight over the debt limit, the Pennsylvania Republican said Wednesday on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," adding that congressional Republicans have to be ready to push a temporary shutdown if necessary to force the president's hand.We Republicans need to be willing to tolerate a temporary, partial government shutdown.http://www.newsmax.c...5#ixzz2H4YufyY9I like that one.
She's not running the House now, Boehner is.
They need to stop all this last minute **** and give them time to read the stuff they're voting on.
They just go from one cliff to another.
They're already talking about the next 'cliff' raising the debt ceiling.
Republicans are ready to let the country default on the bills that Congress already racked up.
(Spending bills originate in the House.)
They do this under the pretext of being concerned about the deficit and the national debt, which is a bunch of hogsnot.
If they really cared about the deficit or the debt they would have gone after George W. Bush who added trillions to the debt with his two unfunded wars, Medicare Part D and tax cuts, none of which were paid for.
They never once gave him a hard time in raising the debt ceiling.
If they were serious about cutting spending, they would also include things like defense spending, but they never do.
Their real agenda is to dismantle the social safety net, something they have always wanted to do.
They don't give a **** about the deficit.
THIS! ^^^What's up with that mess?I wanted to fix it, but I don't even know where to start. LOL
