Was just reading this article about the debt ceiling. What do you think the chances are....

HR589 could be put in this compromise. Boehner'a back is kinda against the wall. Opinions please.

Heres the article:

Okay. I think HR589 is outdated and needs amended quite "yesterday", following the ever loving steps of any of these cats is like laying on the road waiting for a rail and road and engine to be built just to run us over, and lastly if anyone doesn't want to "lay on the tracks" please keep posted to this forum because just simply put I can't stand for nonsense anymore and we'll be making the moves to let loose on these dummies.

Thanks for asking. I hope everyone is up for the challenge.

Im so sick of hearing that!!! Public sentiment? many of the richest in the country have written letters saying they want to be taxed more and that they dont think its fair!! The ones that want the tax cuts are the big corps, thats who they mean by "public sentiment" why not just say Corporate sentiment and say what you mean!!

Sorry for the rant, but I am so sick of these people saying "thats what America wants" NO IT ISNT!!



I do think it would be a perfect opportunity to squeeze 99er legislation in this deal. I remember a while back reading on crew of 42 that Obama mentioned the possibility of adding HR 589 to some big piece of legislation. It was just a thought and never heard anything about it again.

Agreed X, 14 weeks is not enough at this point. If America is to heal we need a bigger bandage while they fix the infrastructure problems and stop the wars (imho). Common sense, but it feels like Washington just wants things to get worse.

Sorry for the rant? Look at who you are talking to....lol. Yeah MSM is running out of steam though. I feel with the attempted cuts to medicare, medicaid,Vets benefits, America may be awake at this point.

I read that part of the article of Crew 42 as well and I do believe know would be the perfect time also to introduce HR589, but I do think it needs to be revised, like above 14 weeks is not going to be enough at this point, they've waited too long, and hopefully this works to our vantage, all of this could be pre-meditated for the debt-ceiling theatrics.

Sure Hope so.
