CNN Poll: GOP would bear the brunt of shutdown blame [W:176:468]

Re: Most would blame Republicans

The reason Republicans would more be blamed is more people watch pro-Democrat networks. It is the Democrats in the US Senate, not Republicans, threatening to shut down government unless they get everything they want in the budget. The budget ceiling is the law. Democrats in the Senate declare they will destroy the economy unless Republicans go along with breaking that law.

LOL I thought FOX was #1. Now they are 2nd place? The American people aren't so stupid to think the game the T's are playing is not the cause. How many times have you heard of a minority party demanding a law be repealed without due process? It's not only illegal it is impossible.
 
Re: Most would blame Republicans

The T.E.A. Party representatives are doing what the people that elected them told them to do. The American people are entitled to the same exemptions Obama has given his supporters and base. Blaming the Republicans is nothing more than political theater perpetuated by a willing press. The reality is quite different. Congress passed the law and should be forced onto the law.

Utah didn't elect Mike Lee to shut down the government. He's becoming a dirty word in his home state.

Funny, really. It is the President's job to work within the Budget granted him by the House. He didn't do that and so fell down on the job. I mean, couldn't he see the money was running out? Why didn't he slow his spending? How can anyone blame anyone else but Obama? It isn't as though the US didn't have enough debt, after all.

Funny this doesn't have anything to do with budget this has to do with spending already approved by congress and nothing else. Do you have a clue as to what is going on??

As I see it, he knew the deadline was coming up, after which he would need new approval. The House told him he could have his money, if he accepted their conditions. He didn't like the conditions and let the date line laps. By doing that he necessitated the payments stop. That sounds as though he willfully bluffed, playing with the people's well being and the people lost.

Why? You think the President need not have the House approve his budget?

How is Obama doing in your state?

The President did submit a budget request, 3.77 trillion dollars claiming it would lower the deficit and improve economic conditions. It didn't get ONE Democrat or Republican Vote.
 
Re: Most would blame Republicans

No there have been over a thousand bad actions by Republicans over the last 5 years it about time Dems stud up to the Tea Party terrorist.

Re: Most would blame Republicans

The GOP is using something unrelated to Obamacare, the funding of the government, to push the issue. That was a mistake.

Passing a bill which estbalishes funding to something you dont like sounds entirely related. The House controls the money. People elected Republicans to control the money.

And? Maybe they didn't like it. And if you need their okay? Well you do what it takes to get it or lose. That is the way checks and balances work.

The point being that Obama has no interest in reducing the deficit or the debt but will take credit for everything if it is good and pass on blame if it is bad. Obamabots ignore that reality.

The bills were already approved by congress the debt ceiling is to pay those bills nothing else it never has been. This is not anything new. This is just a Republican ploy to relitigate stuff. By taking American credit hostage and throwing a hissy fit. The bills were passed now it time to pay them. It has been that way for a long time.

It is not Obama money the debt has to be paid according to the Constitution. That also is Reagans, Bush 1, Clinton's, and Bush 2 debt as well. Sorry you righties are fixing to lose another arguement.

Lady, you don't have a clue what you are talking about but just regurgitate liberal leftwing rhetoric. The liberal elite love having people like you and are laughing at you behind the scenes.
 
Re: CNN Poll: GOP would bear the brunt of shutdown blame [W:176]

Not surprising, the sequester is in effect and Obama takes credit for the reduction in the deficit. Keep allowing liberalism to make a fool of you.

Lol really the defict reduction was under way before the sequester so you admit to telling a bold face lie and trying to back track. Tell me why every Republican President over the 30 years has ballooned the defict?? Yet you still seem to think and say they dont do anything wrong. Remember deficits dont matter.

The deficit reduction is primarily due to increases in both economic and financial growth. The sequester is just spit in a bucket.

Almost forgot, I don't respond to people who reported me seeking an infraction because they cannot stand to be challenged.

The deficit has been falling every year since 2009. For example, from July 2012 - July 2013, the accumulated deficit was roughly $722 billion.
