Voters: pay attention on the debt limit

[Walt]

Not true. What has Congress ever done that leads you to think they don't want money to be spent? seriously.

They refuse to allow the money to be borrowed to be spent.

Congress ordered the meal, but is refusing to pay the bill at the end of the meal.

Uh, Congress spends money and you know that. Stop being a fucking asswipe.

Congress required the spending of the money, and then has required not spending the money.

Alphabet soup from the jew. Walt...I'm done with you jew.

 

[PostmodernProphet]

Congress approved the spending, and in fact, required the spending.

yes....the demmycunts approved it in December, 2022...they required it.....now the new congress is un-requiring it.......

 

[PostmodernProphet]

The Republicans passed a bill?

yes Walt......the Republicans passed a bill.....

Then pass a new budget. Republicans have not even written this new budget. There is not an obvious way to write such a budget.

No, they did not.

this isn't writing a budget.....that's due later......this is raising the debt limit.......I'm surprised this is new to you.......this debate has been going on for decades......

you shouldn't debate politics if you are ignorant of politics.....

The House of Representatives narrowly approved a Republican bill that links avoiding a default with enacting spending cuts and several GOP policies rolling back several of President Biden's policies.

That is one third of the process to pass a bill. Now show the other two steps happened.

Actually, the budget is due before the debt limit rising.

And the Republicans and Democrats like a bad couple on their first date are arguing over how much tip to include...

This has the ability to totally bring down the hate party, something that is totally needed , it won't be the end of conservatism, just the end of the hate party. It will be hard for the real conservatives to rebrand and put together a solid voice for their party , it will no longer be based on hatred and secret organizations like their new world order and the boogy man globalist. But they earned it, conservatives will have to suffer along with the hate party because they let it happen in the first place. They have to be destroyed to save this country. And don't forget that they will kill for Trump when he asks, so protect your family. You know who the haters are in your neighborhood.

If we default on our debt - on our already established obligations - it's not a bipartisan failure.

It will be Republicans that cause us to default. It will be solely on Republicans.

The economy will go to dark places that are hard to even imagine right now. But Republicans don't care, if they feel like they can gain political advantage. They're willing to create suffering for millions to do that.

If it happens, voters should never forget.

Well, republicans already passed something to expand that limit, now you need to watch the Democraps (dangit, rats*) in the Senate to see if they believe they can still blame the default on republicans and refuse to also pass something to expand the limit.

They passed a bill the Dems cannot agree to. That is how they are manufacturing the crisis. You are pretending McCarthy is an honest legislator. He is the weakest speaker ever and this bill is a product of MTG and other insurrectionists in hiding.

Hmmm... Seems like they could avoid things like that in the future by negotiating with the House so that bills would be more palatable. Now what they have on their hands is a bill that would expand the debt limit, and they are the ones refusing to act on it. Democraps (dangit again... *rats! *rats!, stop mistyping that!) need to do a bit better than that.

no.....it is what the House needs to do......if the demmycunts don't want the government to fail now THEY need to pass something........

not when you cunts overspent the current limit in the LAST budget.......debt limit due June 1, next budget due September 1......did you learn your months in grade school?......
