It Has Hit The (debt) Ceiling Fan

I am here to proclaim Barack Obama the best Republican President since Saint Ronald Reagan!!!

What?  He's a Democrat????  Really?

Once again, the Democrats cave in to the bully Republicans. Isn't he the President of the United States?  Supposedly, the most powerful person in the world?  Really???  He has to be the worst negotiator on the face of the planet.  And by negotiator, I mean giant wuss!!!  It all started with the Health Care Plan.  He caved by giving away the Universal part of Universal Health Care.  But I gave him a break on that because, at least, we got more healthcare reform than any other President in history.  And then he caved by extending the Bush Tax rates.  No break there, but at least he has another chance when they come to expire again very soon.  But this debt ceiling thing.... COME ON!  Did he not have the cajones enough to demand that they raise the debt ceiling like they did for Bush, Clinton and Saint Reagan?  Or is the Tea Party just crazy and evil enough to smell blood and go in for the kill?

It's times like these that I wish that my primary vote for Hillary Clinton would have counted.  Can you imagine how she would have handled this?  She would have been Lucy to John Boehner's Charlie Brown. She would have grabbed that metaphorical football from under John Boehner's foot over and over and he would have fallen for it every time.  And seniors, military families, people with disabilities and poor children would have never had to worry that they would have the football grabbed from under THEM!

One highlight of this debacle: The self appointed spokesman for the Tea Party, Joe Walsh (no, not that one) from Illinois, won a nomination for Hypocrite of the Year. Seems the "America needs to pay it's bills" screamer owes over $117, 000 in back child support.  Pay your own bills, douchebag!

Other than that Mrs. Kennedy, how was Dallas?

What would Betty think?  "I never liked Nancy Reagan. She seemed snotty". And then she would go on and on about Bill Clinton and how kids today have oral sex because of him.
