Is the GOP in collapse or are they being true patriots regarding the debt ceiling?

Americans are surprisingly very stupid and suffer from acute amnesia. Do recall George W. Bush was elected not once but twice. Well maybe once. The first time he was installed by the U.S.'s incorporated Supreme Court.

The supreme court deciding the outcome of that election was a complete conflict of interest, given the first bush president appointed some of those judges of the court.

It's a funny thing that the first thing that comes out of a persons mouth when talking about Atlanta is the traffic, everybody hates driving in Atlanta.

So, that's true of every large city. There's NOT ONE large city where the traffic doesn't suck.

I hear the school system is great down there, oh wait didn't they just get caught in one of the biggest cheating scandals? Teachers being told to change answers on students standardized test, how pathetic.

Which is ONE district in a THIRTEEN COUNTY area. It's not "just" happening, this scandal has been dragging on for a year or so.

As for pathetic... let's talk about Alvin Greene... charged with felony sexual obsenity, broke, ran no campaign, had no website, did no advertising and STILL "won" the Democratic primary for a seat as a Senator from the great state of South Carolina! The leading 'splanation? His name appeared before his candidates on the ballot.

Yep, bunch of smart folks you got there, if that's the case!

Here's a quote from a Huffington piece on ol' Alvin: "In the months since his victory, Greene has given a series of awkward interviews to reporters clamoring for more information on the man who lives in Manning with his ailing father. In one interview, he suggested that the state's economy could be improved by making and selling action figures depicting him in his uniform."

Throwing down money like a drunk hooker leads to inflation. We just haven't seen it yet as the banks are hoarding.

I'm smart...very smart. I'm so much smarter than you! I'm like super smart...you have no idea.

LOL you think that the US dollar is going to experience hyperinflation in the next year. That doesn't make you smart, that makes you very, very gullible.

I bet you think the credit ratings companies are going to downgrade us VERY SOON or that it's becoming harder for the US to borrow(its not).

I didn't say anything about hyperinflation...not even close. I said 10, 20, maybe 30 percent a month, annual of 100%. Hyperinflation would be around 50 - 100% per month.

I don't know what the credit rating companies are going to do...I have no say as I do not work for them. I didn't even say anything about them nor am I concerned about what they do. They don't measure risk correctly and never have (fannie & freddie)

Get ready: the GOP is hard at work planning Debt Ceiling Fiasco Parte Deux

Speaker John A. Boehner appears to be girding for another fight over raising the nation’s debt ceiling – possibly just before the November elections.

In a speech Tuesday to a fiscal summit meeting in Washington sponsored by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, Mr. Boehner planned to double down on what has become known as the Boehner Rule: Any increase in the statutory borrowing limit must be accompanied by spending cuts of equal value.

Boehner to Double Down on Debt Rule

Of course the real jewel in the crown is this:

House Republicans are trying to undo those defense cuts with legislation that would instead cut domestic programs like food stamps, Medicaid and President Obama’s Wall Street regulatory apparatus.

Guns are far more important than food. Starve, die in the ER, lets rig the system (again) for collapse.

I think Bush stole both of his elections.

Well it's a year later and well it didn't work out that way. :wink:
