Surely, he is going to blame Obama and the Democrats for racking up $3 trillion in debt since Obama took office, and creating deficits of well over a trillion since he took office. Spending has skyrocketed. Obamacare creates trillions in new entitlement spending. Their policies have completely failed. Guess who gets blamed?
Media reports are touting the Senate’s Gang of Six and its new budget outline. But the news that explains why the nation is caught in this debt-ceiling fiasco is the gang warfare inside the Republican Party. We are witnessing the disintegration of Tea Party Republicanism.
The Tea Party’s followers have endangered the nation’s credit rating and the GOP by pushing both House Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor away from their own best instincts.
And those last few words put the Democrat position in a nutshell: it’s not about their own best interests, which, in Liberal World, means being re-elected and increasing the size and scope of government. It’s about what is best for the country, and that is not spending ourselves into collapse.
E.J. is welcome to send his surely fabulous salary to the IRS to do his part and “pay his fair share.”
I hope it has occurred to most just exactly what Obama is doing.
He is playing the Tea Party against the establishment GOP in an attempt to divide the party and win back the 2012′s.
He will too if we let him. That is why I say we need to let the Democrats do whatever taxing they want to destroy the economy even further so we can carry the House and the senate farther into the RED column….and get his socialist backside back on the community organizer circuit instead of in the White House.
