| h/t Instapundit ...The debt-ceiling cage match is the culmination of the Democrats' 75-year-long fight to establish a voting bloc of dependents under the false flags of "compassion" and "social justice." It's sapped our strength, created a welfare mentality and, if unchecked, will reduce us to a nation of aging, resentful beggars with eyes cast permanently toward Washington. |

| #6 IIRC CNN AM repor on calls in Washington for POTUS BAMMER + GOP-DEMS to just fergit about the formal Debt Ceiling, or any Debt Ceiling limit for that matter, + just "spend, spend, spend" as pertinent. Greece-style under 1.60x insolvency, versus Japan-style 2.26x insolvency. D *** NG IT, AMERICA = AMERIKA IS A GLOBAL SUPERPOWER OR HYPERPOWER - CLEARLY WE NEED 3X OR GREATER INSOLVENCY JUST BECAUSE WE CAN! ITS OUR RIGHT! Espec iff NASA-JPL wants to start deep space exploration during a long-lasting, US-World Debt, Economic Crisis = "Peak Everything". |

| #4 The feds now borrow 43 cents of every dollar they spend. Under Obama, outlays have soared to nearly a quarter of GDP (the historical average is just under 20 percent) -- and once ObamaCare starts to fully kick in around 2014, it will only rise. The use the O'Bumble metaphor, Obama has driven the Yugo, the electric car, or the golf cart off the cliff; it has crashed at the bottom, and it is now in flames and burning. |

| #3 It's not a question of if it's going to collapse, it's one of when it's going to collapse. The Trunks will have the best bid on 'I told you so' as they're all lined up for their turn at the rope. |

| #2 IMF and Moodys either keep raising the debt ceiling or don't have one! I am waiting for my credit card from MOODYS no limit I will be buying surplus silos with live functioning munitions in them, anyone have a spare aircraft carrier sitting around? Everyone in the United States will be getting that new credit card from the rating agencies, live it up! |

| #1 On the radio last night, amidst the "Trunks are evil; Obama is reasonable" news, was this little tidbit: 49% of those polled do not want to raise the debt ceiling. Now that's a groundswell! |
