krauthammer is really starting to make me sick.
his advice last night is disgusting.
The R leadership is all of a sudden going to stand firm in 3 weeks when default is threatened... what a lying sellout.
This is a far bigger issue. It is far more important.
Now is the time now is the place.
He spoke of winning... I know you are smart Charles... you want to give winning advice... here it is.
Send over the budget section by section with a provision extend the debt ceiling by that much. They win on both issues... and the people win.
And we save a few trillion.
The markets could explode.
Jobs could explode.

State from now on this is how the budget will be done.
This was how it was designed to be done.
Its why the house has the power of the purse.
The bastards who voted obamacare in... were such slime they delayed the beginning of it.
They got voted out. So what happens.
The new group gets to vote... Obamacare does not get funding.
That is how the system was set up.
Its time the Rs stand up.
Quote from PiggyBank:
totally agree, send it over piece by piece. I can't disagree more with what i was hearing on the news last night. This is the wrong fight blah blah. This is the only fight, and the reps need to stand their ground and not cave. the debts have to be paid and the ceiling has to be raised. Passing a budget is also the law and it's not happening, this is the way to make it happen. don't puss out boehner.
they could also suspend their own pay as a gesture that they give a fuck. I know it's only symbolic but it would make them look good.
