Harry Reid is blaming the Republicans for not solving the debt problem. "I haven't heard anything from the Republican leaders. . . we have a proposal we know the president will sign . . . " but what are the Democrats bringing to the table? Nobody is really sure because they aren't saying. Next Reid mentioned the 2 wars that "this administration didn't start; [I] don't want to go into that (so mentioning it is not 'going into that' according to Reid) and then said the American people believe there should be shared sacrifice. What is shared sacrifice? Tax increases? One less on-demand abortion for a liberal's teenage daughter? Socialism? Marxism? Reid also claimed the president has been involved in the debt crisis, but let's be serious, the only way Obama could have been involved was by texting his input or posting it on Facebook. The only time he actually was involved (speech making doesn't count) is when he offered a budget plan that was so out in left field, he didn't even get one 'yes' vote. Personally, I feel sorry for Obama because I'm sure this situation is ruining his golf weekends and effecting his handicap, (even though he hasn't made an appearance, but is keeping up appearances by not playing golf). So the House rejected the Senate debt plan with the vote 173 yes, 246 no, and CNN is having an Ireport where viewers can make videos where they beg Congress to get the deal done. I have yet to see one conservative making a video--they just might tell the Republican party to stay strong and don't give in. CNN doesn't want to go there.
It was just announced that Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are on their way to the White House to speak with Hussein Obama. It makes me wonder how they're planning on getting there. Pelosi is used to signing out US Air Force jets for herself and her friends to get around, and I suspect Reid may balance that by taking a bicycle. Well, it doesn't really balance it, but it looks good for the liberals and the mainstream media isn't going to mention Pelosi's jet-setting. They will, of course, mention the bike and how Harry Reid is helping the environment, won't they? Of course I'm kidding about the bike, but I'm totally serious about the USAF jets, and wrote it about it in a previous blog. Pelosi has literally cost taxpayers millions for jet fuel, booze and personnel, but she, like Obama, wants to tax corporate jet owners. What hypocrisy.
Now John Boehner will be speaking about the vote. He feels the only thing standing in the way is Obama and Senator Reid. Senator Mitch McConnel also spoke about the charade of the Reid bill not passing in the House. Boehner said that it's time for the president to tell us what he's for, and it's time for him to act. I'm surprised Senator McConnel doesn't know that Obama is for socialism and sharing other people's money. He's also for nuclear disarmament of the world, and when he is finally elected King of the World, he will finally get his wish.
So, the Republicans say they were in agreement with the Democrats but the Dems walked away, and the Democrats denied this assertion, instead claiming the Republicans are refusing to compromise. Why aren't these talks made public? Why can't we hear this process for ourselves? This is, after all, our money, our country, and our right to know what's going on. Instead the information we're hearing sounds more like a campaign response than a concerted effort to keep our nation solvent.
So we are hours away from the deadline and it's possible for the first time in American history, our country will default on its debts. Imagine the elderly who have been forced to put a substantial portion of their paychecks into Social Security, and a government that took their money to pay for things other than what the money was intended for--then ask yourself just who should be the target of their anger.
