Ah yes, the unquestionable moral invincibility of the left surfaces again.

More do as I say, not as I do, from the smugly superior liberal bastion.

So much for their demand for "civility in the discourse."

I've never been on a board so nasty to liberals until I came here.
I am sorry you don't see the difference in calling someone socialist or communists, as they are ACTUAL political philosophies, and calling someone stupid, or a moron or a bi..h. just because someone does not agree with your position.

And let's not forget how many times the left called W. Bush a nazi, drunkard, frat boy, etc.

I do NOT deny there are SOME on the right on here that use name calling but, IMO opinion is it is much more prevalent on the left.

Actually when I post that I've been attacked more by conservatives in other threads, saying I'm a liberal.

They were like cannibals, eating their own party and leaders alive. They were like vampires, draining the country’s reputation, credit rating and compassion. They were like zombies, relentlessly and mindlessly coming back again and again to assault their unnerved victims, Boehner and President Obama.

Island of sanity, ship of fools.

Keep swimming my friends, keep swimming.
Try this instead...... Republicans manufacture faux crisis in order to gain political leverage. Put forth proposal that has absolutely no hope of passing by either party than cries foul when it is shot down. In an attempt to re-assume the mantle of being "fiscally conservative" they hold hostage the full faith and credit of the United States government in attempt to claim credit for some nebulous future spending cuts.

Try THIS instead .. It was THE Senate and OBama who created the faux crisis by telling the old folks that they'd be eating dogfood when their SS checks might not go out!

It was the Senate and OBama who said that failing to raise the debt ceiling (spending more) would lead to a market downturn.
(How'd that work out?)

It was OBama and the Liberals in the Senate who said that the Military might not get paid!

It was OBama and the Liberals in the Senate who cried that we would go into default IF they didn't get their greedy little hands on MORE borrowed monies!
(THAT was a Blatant Lie .. Proven over and over again .. to Be a Lie!)

It is a FACT that Government will ALWAYS spend one hundred percent of every last dime that they are given!
(Except the funds that they will pilfer and add to their campaign coiffers)

It is a FACT that they will ALWAYS want more!



I could go on and on about the Chicago style Scare Tactics that these Thugs have used and I can Guarantee you that there will be more coming when these Thugs want 'their way' again!

If it had been my choice .. once the house put their plans on the table and Harry Reid rejected it .. I would have walked away and let the other 2/3rd's of the government come up with a plan of their own!

As a matter of fact .. OBama nor the House and Senate (when the Demoncrats) held the majorities .. for OVER 80 months, NEVER had a plan unless you call .. spend, spend and then spend more .. a plan!?

Oh and what about that 'commission' that OBama himself appointed to come up with recommendations in dealing with the budget?

When they did come up with one .. He IGNORED them!?

What about the FIRST plan that the SENATE and the House both came to an agreement on?

OBama .. SHOT IT DOWN!

EVERY time you Liberals and your Wonder-Man OBama FAIL .. You WILL NOT take any blame!

I will close with this one caveat .. I did not like BUSH and I am admitting that He is partly responsible for this mess but .. BUSH is no longer the President!

The Liberals and the Empty Suit in the White House will NOW wear the Mantle of the FIRST President in History to OWN a Downgrade in AMERICAS Credit Ratings!

Deal With It!

Lets not forget that Democrats held a super majority during the last two years of the Bush presidency. NOTHING got passed in to law that the Democrats didn't approve of.
To blame Bush for the economy is to blame Democrats.

You do realize the difference between raising the statutory debt limit and controlling future budgetary spending don't you?

Had we not increased the ceiling we would have to have decided whether to pay the credit card company or our kid's allowances. We couldn't do both.

And You do realize that WE ALL have tough decisions to make and the corrupt politicians should have to do the same!?

This garbage about paying the bills or defaulting was a lie!
You know it was a lie, I know it was a lie and the corrupt Liberals AND Obama knew it was a lie.

These bass-turds are always screaming about needing more money for debts when it is THEM that ran up the bill!

Start by cutting 50% of the federal workers or .. cut their d@mn salaries!

EVERYONE should have some 'Skin In The Game" (Empty Suit's Words) and That should included EVERY member of the Federal Government!

Why should the Private Sector be suffering a near 20% unemployment rate while the Feds continue to grow!

NO G-D@MN way should these crooks get more and more of our money to p!$$ away as suits them which is usually .. Vote Buying!

NO MORE!
