Why didn't 0bama sign a budget last year, when his party controlled everything?? Then he could have averted all this in 2011.
Instead, 0bama failed the nation, and we will see our nation's credit rating drop. Our interest rates will soar, including all our credit cards. Just another feather in his cap to besiege the poor and the lower and middle class income families; higher gasoline costs, higher interest rates, higher electricity costs, higher food costs, higher unemployment, etc.... all thanks to 0bama.
It was not the President that kept a deal from being signed last year, or did you forget the Repubs holding unemployment benefits hostage to retain tax cuts for the rich. Short memories seems to be a common problem these days. Want to blame someone with the lesser deal we just got all you have to do is look at the GOP.

That is very promising record there, to run a campaign on.
But he got Osama!
Ok, this had nothing to do with the latest drama brought on by the Tea Party? Come on. The TP want to destroy Obama, but you know what, he is going to send them packing in 2012.
I may not agree with your politics but I do feel for you guys with Obama. Each constituency should get a guy or gal that will actually put up a fight. You guys should have nominated Hillary.
I think he tricked you folks in 2008 worse than W tricked the conservatives in 2000.
You should seriously consider a primary challenger in 2012.
I suggest Kucinich, Dean, Warren or Franken.
You are actually gloating because the Republican Party was willing to take the full faith and credit of the United States and the economic future of this country and hold it hostage as a poltiical ploy.
Let me get this straight you are actually PROUD the Republican Party was able to do this?
Someone pushed to get the deal done and since we know it was not the House or Senate that leaves the President. We had to have some sort of deal, defaulting was not an option except for some of the far right hardliners. There was a better deal offered months ago, maybe if the GOP could have stopped their posturing long enough to do their JOB we would all be happier with the results, so instead we got a worse deal all around, you can thank the GOP for the final lack of results.

Who says the deal is done, except the far left Progressives and RINO's?
The 12 member commission is not going to fly with Conservatives in the house. Taking the economy out of the House's hands.

Hate to tell you. With this drama, the Conservative Constitutionalists are gaining members daily.

For the last time, we are only in this mess in the first place because your democrats did not do their job last year. This is what happens when your government is rudderless, you have no budget, and we run out of money.... cuz the democratic congress, senate and president did not "budget" monies to run the government.
This is how you think it works eh? Every time we elect a new congressional term, our nation runs out of money to run the government a couple of months later.
Yeah sure, this budget crisis happens all the time, every two years we run completely out of money to fund the government, and our congress and senate run around like chickens with their heads cut off, trying to write a budget, because the last congress isn't supposed to pass a budget bill.

Thank you for further proving my point.
