Default obama threatens to withhold Social Security payments?

What gives with this maniac?

Why doesn't he threaten instead to withhold all the subsidies, research grants, foreign aid, all his vacations
overseas (oh yeah, my bad, his goodwill trips) and government aid to illegal aliens first?




And one of his Democratic cronies wants to increase the debt limit by another 2 trillion dollars?

Well, he is a "professional politician" and not the "general public".

He actually said without deal on the debt ceilling we might not have the money to make payments. He can't and isn't threatning to withhold anything.

Please stop lying.

In 2006, Obama voted against raising the debt ceiling, offering a justification that now reads like something ripped from an activist's t-shirt: "Leadership means that 'the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren."

What Is the Debt Ceiling Debate All About? - Politics - The Atlantic Wire

Now of course, in 2011, absolute economic devastation would occur if the debt ceiling isn't lifted

Political theatre at its best, and you're all getting played.

I guess the death panels aren't fast enough, Obama wants to starve the seniors off before the next election. He's not going to get the youth vote either so I guess he has a draft and a war planned for them.....

Please do some research before calling someone a liar, OK?

Let me google that for you
