It should never have come to the point we are now, and we must no, IMO, default on the full faith and credit of the U.S.A.<br /><br />Cut, Cap, and Balance is the proper course. Finding the bridge, is of course what we pay our representatives to do.Les Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120280762698472496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-79407030942247172912011-07-15T12:34:07.486-04:002011-07-15T12:34:07.486-04:00The problem with more compromise is that the spend...The problem with more compromise is that the spending issue will never get fixed until there's a catastrophic economic crisis and ultimately civil war or imposition of a police state. The sooner we start massive spending cuts the better. The debt ceiling is a good place to draw the line. Its an issue people are fired up about. Capping borrowing is something everyone can understand. And the GOP has refused to draw the line anywhere else, e.g. on regulation, appointing progressive judges, confirming progressive agency heads, defunding libya, obama's various unconstitutional acts besides libya, the TSA, patriot act renewal. It gets depressing to itemize. The GOP has picked a good fight and they need to stick to it.Shane Atwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12268148003641995554noreply@blogger.com
