1. I guess they got his number.

He's trying to be the conciliator in chief, playing by the rules, but they have thrown the rule book away. I doubt if they would have gotten away with it if it were John Kennedy or Lyndon Johnson.

3. They are holding out because of the the past history.

Why make a deal if you know that you can win if you hold out.


The longer they hold out the more they will get.


The Democratic Party stands for nothing so they get bullied.

4. Johnson would have personally kicked their asses.

6. You bet he would have.

We need a LBJ now.

He would have the teabaggers begging for mercy from day one.

2. CNN just announce the meeting with Reid, Pelosi and Obama has just ended

I am proud of my Congressman he has always stood for liberal principles. There are many great Dem's, unfortunately there are also many blue dogs.

5. I think the GOP is about to break the debt ceiling.

They used it as a weapon and pointed it at the American people. I don't think the people like being held hostage. It really is, like Bill Maher said, a case of a little kid getting hold of a shotgun.

7. If You Think the "Deals" Being Discussed Now Are Bad

After they force us into default they have it all, and we will have to beg them to get any of it back.
