Has the GOP leadership already caved on the debt ceiling battle before it’s even begun? Geithner seems to think so, and he tells us how they have…
To spare you from listening to either of these individuals drone on, here’s a report that expands on the topic of the debt ceiling discussed in this interview…we’ll return to this in just a moment.
Now, add this on top of Obama scoffing to campaign donors about Republican efforts to rollback some of his dismantling budget-busting policies through the normal legislative maneuvers as somehow “under the guise of cutting spending” when rolling back ANYTHING this man has implemented will absolutely curb Washington spending…
…and then you should be able to gather a better picture of what we’re up against: unwavering ideologues that will not back down to timid opposition.
To boot, these arrogant bastards know only a few in the GOP have the courage to play their skewed game of 'chicken' with the American People at stake. But just to assure they'll get the ceiling raised without submitting to any specific stipulations from Republicans, particularly significant spending reductions, they're willing to raise the stakes...this time, they're not only willing to hold the military hostage, they've up'd the game to hold seniors hostage as well. Two groups that these statist radicals could care less about!
America, it's time to decide: will we continue to trade a little temporary security for our precious, sacred Liberty? Will we allow ourselves to feel a little temporary pain to achieve freedom from statism's stranglehold? How can we live with ourselves as a civil society, passing this misery on from one generation to the next, when it doesn't have to be? We cannot afford to slip further into this social democratic tyranny. Constitutional governance, a just rule of law, MUST begin anew! It will require neighbor helping neighbor, charity of family, friend, and perhaps even stranger, but this will be the only way to break this cycle of new socio-economic slavery that our political elites have shackled us with. And the time couldn't be riper for a national turnaround.
Unlike our cowering leadership, here’s the kind of man that will lead us! Among a multitude of issues addressed, Col. West had a few words to say about Obama’s request for a “clean” bill on the debt ceiling: “That dog don’t hunt.”
“I am sick and tire of people saying, “the American People need to make sacrifices.” WASHINGTON, D.C. NEEDS TO MAKE SACRIFICES!” Spot on, Col. West! Instead of threatening our military and seniors, as in this latest debate, Washington needs to be forced to restrain itself. Real leadership would NEVER frame the coming debt ceiling battle in such a revolting manner, nor allow it to be.
‘Defaulting’ is not the ‘only’ option if we don’t raise the debt ceiling. Geithner and Obama, nor the media and pundits, won’t tell you this, because Obama is not about to act responsibly in rolling back any facet of his overburdening policies, particularly not to merely SAVE the Nation! He ‘fought too hard’ for his brand of destruction.
Courageous leadership, not timidity, is required to tackle arrogant ideology, folks.
P.S. Take note Conservatives, Col. West exhibits the kind of leadership that should be at the top of the ticket in 2012!
