7. All I know is that when Bohner called the WH he said that the Prez is still

insisting on tax increases and that's a deal breaker! The news broadcast I heard, they said the meeting is still on but the air has definately soured.

5. Good - now cut the crap Mr. President, and insist on dealing with the debt ceiling separately...

Then use the Constitutional option if necessary.

14. That's what he should do.

Insist on a clean bill and if that doesn't work, point out this is all bullshit anyway.

6. I wish he would just go on tv with a 39 word message

Look, we will not accept reductions of any kind to SS or Medicare, and any deal will have to include some sort of tax increase on the very richest of this nation. Ball is in your court, Repubs.

10. Remember the only goal the GOP has

is to make Obama a one term president and they are willing to destroy the economy to do it. I'm sure if they thought it would help, they would help a terrorist organization detonate a nuclear device in an American city.

15. And then they'd blame it on a lone nut radical Muslim........

.....or black radicals, or illegal immigrants, or even the Mossad, if need be. Remember, even Israel isn't immune from being used if they absolutely feel it's necessary.

16. Obama needs to go on TV tonight and get ahead of the game and talk about how this denial means the

Republicans OWN the rejection and the consequences.
