19. They are trying to get the ceiling raised.

They have to give something in order to get that from a Republican Congress.

Or are you willing to take the consequences of the default?

A lot more will be on the table with a Republican President, too.

this is just foot stomping. The issue has to be dealt with. What good is stomping your foot and saying we won't deal with it?

[katnapped]

20. You'll be sorry when Republicans run the show!!!!!!!!

Yup yup you will. Need to worry more about SCOTUS than some common people being thrown under the bus! Priorities people! Need to be adults and stop wishing for ponies!
