CCB is Tabled in the Democrat Senate

Today, Harry Reid's controlled Senate, in effect, killed the House passed Cut, Cap & Balanced bill that would begin the process of eliminating our debt, cut our spending while strengthening our important entitlement programs for our seniors, disabled & needy.

But, like the minion protector that Reid is, he thinks his real job (and most on the left agree with him) is to protect the President from political harm.

The House bill is the best solution to our fragile economical times, with real direction.
According to Reid, CCB is:
“Weak and Senseless... Perhaps the worst piece of legislation we have ever had in the country."
No Senator, Obamacare was the worst piece (of sh*t) legislation we have ever had in this country, and the American people agree with me.





My strong suggestion would be to Speaker Boehner... Move on with other business.

He, and the Republican House did their job, as they were elected to do.
Let August 2nd come and go.
The real point of blame will HAVE to be Harry Reid and the United States Senate.

What is Wrong Here


I am truly perplexed at Boehner ability to fight the good fight.
As with the 2010 budget deal he worked out after taking the helm of the House from Pelosi, he appears to have no backbone to hammer out this deal, a REAL deal with the Democrat leadership in the Senate and the Whitehouse.

Now of course the liberals will come out on this and say that Pelosi was a better Speaker because she could get things done in a bipartisan manner.
Of course, they will fail to realize that what she got done during her time at the helm was all do that her party had total control of the government legislation.
WOW that  doesn't say much for her, either.

As reported in WoPo, Boehner is now NOT willing to cut a far reaching deal to trim our debt by $4T in a decade, because Obama is not willing to back down from his job killing, social engineering, wealth distribution tax hikes on those making more then $250K a year.

In Boehner words "Despite good-faith efforts to find common ground, the White House will not pursue a bigger debt reduction agreement without tax hikes,”

Well then Mr Speaker, stand you're ground.
We have less then a month before (as Geithner says) we hit the abyss of our debt limit.... And in a fight for our nations financial future.... YOU DON'T BLINK!

Boehner’s decision leaves negotiators reexamining a less-ambitious framework — aimed at saving roughly $2.4 trillion over the next decade.
-“We cannot ask the middle-class and seniors to bear all the burden of higher costs and budget cuts. We need a balanced approach that asks the very wealthiest and special interests to pay their fair share as well, and we believe the American people agree,” White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer said in a statement.-
WHAT BURDEN to the middle class on this deal?
The Democrat control House and Senate cut a deal last December on extending the Bush tax cuts for all and now they want to renege on it?
And pay their 'fair share' (wealthiest)? Paying over twice the amount the overwhelming majority of us pay (15%) is a crock-o-sh*t point of view by the left.

The problem with the Speaker is he doesn't know how to control the debate.
Please, Mr Speaker, do the right thing. Hold their feet to the fire, or Americans who want the government to get serious with our debt, will hold YOUR feet to the fire in 2012.

Leaderless Nation: Obama at the Helm

Today, President Obama called upon the Republicans in the Congress to get seriously going on the Debt reduction negotiations and to get it done before August 2nd. Which the Treasury Dept says is our drop dead date to avoid default on our $14T Debt.

President Obama said Wednesday that Republicans need to
"drop their opposition to tax increases, saying "everybody else" is sacrificing their "sacred cows" for deficit reduction, GOP lawmakers should be willing to do the same."
But of course when brought forth the biggest spending cuts needed, entitlement, and they are liad on the table, Obama and the left don't want to give up their "sacred cows."
What a hypocrite.

Speaking of hypocrite, check this out.
The president was showing frustration Wednesday with being called on to resolve the debt dispute. (Isn't that the sign of Leadership?)
He suggested 'Congress should stop going on recess and stay in Washington through the summer until a deal is done.'

"You need to be here. I've been here,"



Now.... Time to hit the links'


Or maybe take a few weeks off and get away from work.
