Why is Obama still insisting he be written a blank check. He is standing in the way of Congress working to come together to try to solve this problem. ONE MAN is standing in the way of making progress. He has successfully Polarized Congress and increased the chances that he will have his way. Do you really want to give into the lies and false hope and dubious change. Surely, by now, you see the path this man is leading us down is ruinous. It's easy to tell you've been swapping spit and DNA with Canuck-Knuckles. Blank check, blank check, blank check, blank check, blank check. This was the Republicans phrase for the day. Guess who picked it up? |

I heard it and laughed every time. Where was Boner when Bush was spending trillions off the books on an adventure in Iraq that cost us 5000 American lives and tens of thousands wounded? The House is responsible for the budget, not the White House. Blank check is a bold faced lie meant to appeal to low info voters. |

If it is a bold faced like, then why did you bring it up in your previous posting? |

Guess who picked it up? --------------------------------------------------- The mainstream GOP is screwing this country (along with the TeaBaggers). The Dems' are also screwing this country over by ignoring or missing the *real* problems. Disgusted with both. The only way out of this immediate mess is for Obama to exercise presidential leadership and invoke the 14th amendment, legal challenge or not. Bill Clinton recently stated he would do it in a heartbeat. I sincerely hope that Obama will soon stop acting like a community organizer and start acting like a POTUS. It's his watch, not Reagan's or Bush's. Eisboch |

The Republican House, of course, will then impeach him, but that's as far as it will go, because the Senate will not play that game. The Democrats are aware of the "real" problem and have offered up huge budget cuts along with proposals to raise taxes slightly on the wealthy. The Repubs are being held hostage by the TeaBagger morons. |

Might get that anyways with all these greedy *******s deciding how to **** USA with more debt fraud. Debt sure brings out the worst in people, just lie a drug addict on withdrawal. Nasty. Just greedy debtors living on Bernanke money print fraud for too long. -- Obama, enslaving Americans with debt-tax slavery for a spending binge. Doesn't even borrow real money, Bernanke just creates it like a counterfeiter. . |

No one cares. I'd giggle if the US decided to dump $100 billion of the gold it has, and the result is that your alleged gold holdings go into the toilet. |
