"Those in the Tea Party Caucus, like Bachmann have said they will nto vote to increase the debt ceiling. Its hard to counter the 60 votes they carry."
So what. Obama said he wouldn't increase the debt. They are full of shit. Alan West is a tea party darling and has said he will compromise. And while it may be hard to to counter the 60 votes, it is not impossible. "The biggest problem we have right now is raising the debt ceiling and by being stubborn assholes, the Tea Party Caucus is stopping that from getting done. " But President Obama and Harry Reid are willing to compromise. Please. "That is why I blame the Tea Party." I can see that line of logic from three regular posters, but it is unusual for you. You are usually truly in the middle on debates. " I am not blaming one side initially, I am blaming one side now. " Your first message in the thread was blaming the tea party. That was what I was referring to.
