Now, Geithner starts pointing the finger at Republicans and accusing them of all sorts of transgressions if they don't comply with raising the debt ceiling. Actually, raising the debt ceiling WILL help seal our fate. Let's put Geithner to the test and tell him to stick it. I'm tired of threats. Although both parties are guility of putting us in this financial mess, the Democrats are the most recent offenders so it's fairly academic to tie Democrats to the problem.

HAHAHAHAHA, Paul Ryan is such a ridiculous charlatan. I knew he was a spineless worm, but I never thought he'd show his true colors again so soon. LOL.

Disappointed in Walter Jones for voting for it. But it looks like Amash, Chaffetz, Duncan(TN), and Bartlett(MD) voted against it, they are really Ron Paul's only consistent allies in the House.

Flake (also a frequent ally) voted against it too, at least.

You know what the best part is? Paul Ryan voted yes, and Kucinich voted no. ;) I'm sure his vote had to do with being upset about the screwed up priorities for cuts and increases rather than overall spending levels, but it's still funny.

Paul Ryan is Superman by day, Lex Luthor by night.

He's the prime example for illustrating the motto "Talk is cheap".

Kucinich is more of a fiscal conservative than Paul Ryan, roflmao.

If it came down to the wire and they needed Kucinich's vote for it to pass, he would vote for it.

The only solace I have is knowing that as the economy, debt, and country as a whole get worse, Ron Paul will make more and more sense.

True enough, but he is still more of a fiscal conservative in this case. Ironically, when it comes down to votes pertaining to large debt increases, both have similar track records.

Obama has a great quote about Paul Ryan in the news today:


The president also made clear he is no fan of Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), the GOP's Budget Committee chairman.

"When Paul Ryan says his priority is to make sure, he's just being America's accountant ... This is the same guy that voted for two wars that were unpaid for, voted for the Bush tax cuts that were unpaid for, voted for the prescription drug bill that cost as much as my health care bill--but wasn't paid for," Obama reportedly said.


Unfortunately, being attacked by Obama will probably only make the Republicans more entrenched in their support for the faux fiscal conservative Ryan.
