To be honest I thought the libertarian crew would be sucking Obama's cock today for setting up $1 trillion in cuts to the military

"The only bottom line that I have is that we have to extend this debt ceiling through the next election, into 2013"
-President Obama


He wasn't joking

 

[☼Sunshine.]

he got the only thing he wanted, which was to never have this come up again



LOL @ all the libtarRAB that thought he really wanted to go after those who owned private jets/hedge fund managers.....they are funding his reelection campaign

 

[WishfulThinker]

many of us non-tea partiers, have, y'know common sense and a view od reality.
we should bring back the bush tax cuts when we can-that just isn't now.

 

[growing cub]

I'm laughing at the idea of disbanding the military.

That's a bit of a stretch even for a forum troll to suggest.

So in this one instance, Krugman is right? Or do you normally agree with his op-eRAB?

[eliebellie]

Kicking the can further down the road instead of being a real leader and making the hard decisions in life. Pathetic.

 

[Kylie]

[Äî»Ô Ô]

I think a lot of the European countries are buying them to phase out the Typhoon as well, also the Israelis. Oh no, Futurama, the ISRAELIS

 

[dley00]

Just turn on Fox News. They are all bitching about the balanced budget amendment vote not being a required element before another extension of the debt ceiling.

 

[kaylan b]
