The immediate priority is to raise the ceiling and pay the bills that are already owed.

The next priority is to negotiate a proper cost containment arrangement to reduce future debt.

But you can't put the cart before the horse and say you're not going to pay your bills right now just because you have debt you need to address.
There is no bills owed not being paid. what part of budgeting have you not learned? Are you still in elementary school?

You do know what "the power of the purse" means right?

Listen to Obama's lovers. American Talian, extortion. Yea Obama you did a great job of bringing the American people together.

It makes me think that he believes there is an office higher than the POTUS such as president of the united nations.

Obama: If You Don't Pay Your Mortgage, You're a Deadbeat | Independent Journal Review

So Obama, when will YOU pay the nations bills, and not just keep piling them up?

How incredibly dishonest of you. Obama did not say that. here is the exact quote IN CONTEXT. The transcript of the speech you and your "link" deliberately misquoted.

Remarks by the President on the Affordable Care Act and the Government Shutdown | The White House

"Think about that. If you buy a car and you’ve got a car note, you do not save money by not paying your car note. You’re just a deadbeat. If you buy a house, you don’t save money by not authorizing yourself to pay the mortgage. You’re just going to be foreclosed on your home. That’s what this is about. "

And from the Business Insider:

Obama Statement On Government Shutdown, Obamacare - Business Insider

"Think about that. If you buy a car and you've got a car note, you do not save money by not paying your car note. You're just a deadbeat," Obama said.
"If you buy a house, you don't save money by not authorizing yourself to pay the mortgage. You're just going to be foreclosed on your home. That's what this is about."

Useful idiots and the insanity of calling one side the Taliban. You are forwarding an agenda created by lunatics, and you have the audacity to believe this nonsense. 8th grade, you wish!

As opposed to a bald faced lie posted by the OP.
