White House Rules Out Constitutional Option On Debt Ceiling: Report

Friday, July 8, 2011


Both Rosen and Turley weigh in and affirm that it's a legitimate angle.

And so what if it's just one ruling?   That's all that's necessary, one ruling, and in circumstan­ces similar to these.  And the issue is STANDING.  Only Congress, both chambers filing a joint resolution­, can take the president to court.  Do you really believe a Democratic­ally-contr­olled Senate is going to challenge Obama on this?  Do you really believe that a Democratic­ally-contr­olled Senate would vote to remove Obama from office?

The debt has already been authorized by Congress.  

There are 3 choices:  

1) Prioritize payments (which still means we're on the hook),

2) Cut spending (major cuts in programs that people need)

3) Default and sell off assets.

The American people are clear they do not want programs cut.  The Tea Party is NOT "the People" (the Tea Party is the Republican base).  You don't take people who say, "Governmen­t out of my healthcare­" and "Don't you touch my Medicare" seriously -- You EDUCATE them, you don't empower them by giving in to their ignorant demands.  

The point here is that Obama doesn't, never has, used the tools at his disposal to do the will of those that brung 'im.
