Alien invasion if Debt Ceiling isn't raised?
Unfortunately for Timmy, he's the boy who cried "wolf"
Turbo timmy- "America, if the debt is not raised, satin will rise from hell to eat all american souls.Im super cereal about this guys, it must be raised."
"satin???" :::: how luxurious!
"satan" I’m just portraying turbo Timmy cant spell. get it. lol so funny
Americans are a bunch of stupid animals easy to manipulate and subdue.The sooner the US economy collapses the better, so these brutes will finally learn NOT to live beyond their means.

Are you a bot you stupid wanker? You said the same thing the other day verbatim. or are you just stupid. BTW, if America collapses, who is going to protect your ass from Russia. Da da.
The longest orgasm in world history...the Russians have been coming for over 60 years!
Sorry chap, but all nations now issue debt money at interest. So when the debt (money) stops increasing, we are all done.
Unless you are a now well capitalized bankster ready for taking real property at pennies on the dollar, you are in the same boat, but on a different deck.

As an American, I really want to junk you [looks around at co-workers] but I won't. *sigh
Most people are dumb. Learn things the hard way no matter how much smart folks warn.
Satin? Doesn't sound to scary at all.
he's testifying before Congress as we speak

$10 say's Anthony Weiner is in the center of this circle jerk.
I hope he comes on with devil horns and a pitchfork and sets everyone on fire while eating their mortal souls. On live TV.
That would rawk.
I like how your mind works. I assume they keep you in a cage at your place of employment?
Are you kidding? No cage at all and no leash most days and they let me write ... wait for it ... internet security software!
Yes, they are fools. But I love my work so I let them live.
Now that's just crazy talk.
That you would let them live I mean.
You're funny, Courgar. Thanks for the laugh.
I wonder if, at this point, it is even possible for bankers and politicians to be more hated than they already are?
I'm going to go ahead and be surprised if it is possible.
I think its only possible bankers can be even more hated when the last of the clingers-on, the true believer middle class remnants, get their foreclosure notices.
I like your take. I had more of a Send in the Clowns kind of vibe feel about this.

NICE! You're the first I've seen, MommaDog. Now, would you like fruit or mint?
Fruit please.
Whining, pissing, moaning and best of all....
Classic Victimization... It's not my fault, I wasn't there, I did my part, Hammie did it not me, the dog ate my homework, nobody can prove it, I have an excuse, why does everybody hate me, if they'd do it my way (compromise) then it'd all be OK, they're the problem not me, I'm fair and honest, they're dumb.....
At this point, we'll get a compromise along the lines fo the McConnell proposal, I think.
The GOP can't run the House. It's the difference between being a protest movement and a functioning governing body.
The compromise will pass with mostly Dem votes, but enough Reps to give it a majority.
You do not understand conference rules.
No Speaker can bring a bill to the floor with the intent of passing it over the majority of his or her own caucus. This is why Pelosi never brought a tax increase to the floor. Her own caucus would vote it down.
Hastert did it one time decades ago and was told that if such a thing ever appeared to be about to take place again, he would be replaced before the vote.
Nope, you never ever can pass a bill over the majority of your own party.
I do understant those rules. The point I'm trying to make is that the GOP house "leadership" can't pass any legislation (for the very reason you describe). So in what sense are they leading anything at all? They wanted the job, but they can't get er done.
They keep looking at Obama, like "you have to do something!" But Obama can't run the White House and Congress. Boehner and Cantor, you wanted the house, so figure out how to do something with it.
wow Timmy looks like shit
He smells like it too.
comment of the week award
If it looks like a shit and smells like a shit...
Good thing he didn't step in it.
Take it the White House in a paper bag and light it?
remember, he is quitting as soon as he is done with this 'debt ceiling issue'
So does Hitman's agent provocateur troll game.
What happened to your post about someone needing to "pop this fuck"???
FOAD federal douchebag.

It is all good theatre. Trying to make it look like they are all sweating it out 7/24 in a cigar-smoke filled back room.
"like they are all sweating it out 7/24 in a cigar-smoke filled back room"
.....ripping the hearts out of the opposition, pounding them into submission, straining to keep us all happy in the land of the free, saving the future, keeping the lights on in the shining castle upon the hill....
....'cept there weren't no opposition there in that smoke filled back room with whom to tussle....
.... disturbing
The smoke is from the fire they can't put out. The point of any meeting is to come up with a line of bull we might buy for a can kicking bit...
The theater has just started.
In order to quelch all dissent, minimize criticism, and make us all believe that WE chose to increase the debt ceiling, doom the dollar, and ruin the country, the show must get a bit more dramatic.
Perhaps a long impasse, withholding of SSI, disability, State support, military checks, hell why just shut it ALL down for a few weeks.
That should pretty much silence any criticism from the "fiscal radicals".
US politics is more like "professional wrestling" than anything else. Pure entertainment dressed pretending to be "real". The face (good guy) and the heel (bad guy) talk it up, act like there are real rivalries and bad blood between them, get the crowd going ape for one or the other, drumming up interest in the big pay-per-view cage match event for the belt. They might even tussle a few times pre-event, always carefully played for ratings and broken up before anything can be really decided by their managers. Big day comes, and box office take is huge, and one leaves with the belt, perhaps the same one that arrived with it, perhaps not. But afterwards they both go back to the same hotel room and drink together and laugh about all the money they just made from the suckers they played, the audience. Sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Jesse Ventura, who has cause to know, has compared politics to profession wrestling in the past.
The Guatemalan nanny just told him she's pregnant with twins and she wants big bucks.
Are they fighting over the door?
They're running for the exit...

Hilarious moment as Nancy Pelosi compares Barrack Obama to Job in Bible and says Obama is greater.
Am falling off the chair here. What a nut!!!
The Lloyd giveth, and the Lloyd taketh away.
Okay now that's funny.

Best line I have seen in a good LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG while!!
It just is, isn't it?
PS. Read your story and liked it!
which one? you trouble maker? why are women always trouble? is that what makes them fun? I am going to have to think on that.. but please which story of mine did you enjoy?
I'm sorry JW, I was addressing Cougar. Cougar wrote about a stock broker who met a special, er, uh, angel, and the interactions that ensued.
Cool beans.
Did you know there are like five of them now?
I over did it. But when Hollywood calls to buy the rights Imma rake'n it in, the chumps.
There is one story set around Xmas, I never released it. Too scared of it actually. Had carolling, a fancy dress party, holiday romance and probably the most deranged scene of raging Gothic horror ever written, by anyone. The latter is not necessarily my thing, though I find I'm getting the hang of it.
Don't forget that I'm your PR agent cougar. Or you can buy me out if that's what you want.
Or not. Whatever. Just stop looking at me that way.
very good Buzz. Promise me we don't have to see any of them naked
Amen

So seven days right? I see a lot of 'bun throwing' and 'toys out the stroller' actions but nothing being actually implemented...
The good news is the chip can be easily injectable
This is getting good.
Wake me when the Brimstone starts. I've never actually seen the stuff, but the Bible says it's a really good show.
For once i feel the movie might actually be better than the book ;-)
LOL!.....(transitions to tearfullness and then balling).
Comment reply of the week winner.
Just too funny on so many levels.
We really should have some sort of reward system. Maybe post it front page somewhere? Was it last new years eve we were throwing up nominations for comment of the year?
If you mix brimstone and frankensense, then put it in the toaster oven for a little while on really low, THEN throw it in your pipe...
You'll wind up practicing your kara-TE moves on shoulder of the freeway at 4am -- or, so I've heard.
Wait wait, don't go yet.
What are the proper proportions of brimstone to frankensense, how long in the toaster oven at what temp, does it have to be a freeway or even 4 AM and what is kara-TE.
Or do I care what kara-TE is?
Wait, never mind about the Kara-TE. :>)
Kara-TE is simply the way you have to say it (karate) -- with that special accent at the end so that every knows that you are a master (meaning, novice).
;)
But what temperature? And can I use my Easy Bake Oven?
Give me some answers dammit.
Good luck getting that thing to work with a US Congress mandated 26W CFL Lamp.
I'm hoarding my old incandescent bulb supply. In 10 years they will be worth more than Gold. :>)
THANKS for that!
The proper temperature is SEVEN.
ps If you use up your last incandescent you can substitute the heat from any modern cpu.
just make sure you don't look back (unless you want to become a salt lick)

WE NEED AUSTERITY!
WE NEED CUTS TO BALANCE OUR BUDGET!!
WE NEED TAX CUTS TO CREATE JOBS!!!
As I pointed out above, the Democrats had full control for 2.5 years and could have passed a tax increase any time they wanted. They could have passed one in the Bush years, too, and let him veto it.
Funny how that never happened. A tax increase won't get through their own caucus, and that's true today, too. The GOP could let them bring such a bill to the floor. It would get almost no votes from Democrats.
and raise the debt ceiling
One of my other posts (from today) describes the fact that Government.. Democrats when they had the majority were in gridlock and now with the Republicans, yet more Gridlock.. "the Government wants to stir the pot more than Tyler" is verbatim from my dialogue earlier..
so knowing that the Government wishes to cause broad and systemic stress to the largest segment of the population raises the question as to why the Government is going out of its way to stress the American People, Broadly.
In Pakistan, our Embassy was Cerebrating very Publicly Gay Rights Day! which of course has caused a fracture of the Government there (a few days ago).
I bring that up to demonstrate how an over land pipe line from Iran to China serves NOT America's Best Interests..
Sending 6 million Manufacturing Jobs to China, Loaning China the Money to Build Factories and then giving Corporations Tax Breaks to Move those Jobs Off Shore was NOT in America's best interests..
Dragging out the debt ceiling issue? NOT in America's best interests..
I am hard pressed to demonstrate our Government acting in "We the People's" best interests going back DECADES!
So what does our Government (it doesnt matter which Lobby Whore Infested Party) want to destabilize our Manufacturing Base? our Tax Base and our allies?
Our Country is on a Crash Course and has been for quite a long while, Our Government has and still is aiming for a crash and regardless of the Party once again.. they continue to drive Our Country into the Ground.
What the Fuck? Population Control? What? Why is Our Government trying to cause broad distress? within the best armed population in the World?
If you wish to take ownership of someone else's liabilities and buy into their illusion then by all means self-imposed flaggelation is nice.
Take care.
/Moe, Larry, and Curly run around the room madly and collide in the middle./
Moe: "Thanks you Clowns; If we hadn't smacked into eachotherit would have been madness forever."
Curly: "Soitainly!"
The Government wants Gridlock to perpetuate the distress levied against "We the People" I would simply rather rip the band aide off more quickly than allow the pain to be dragged on and on by removing it slowly.
The only real hope that ALL of us have is if the Majority of "We the People" are made to suffer enough to demand change.
I dont like the fact and to be clear I am soooooooooooooo very open to another path to follow.. but effecting real change in this political climate, with these idiot monkey's? is going to take some direct applied pressure, that is already being applied (NOT BY ME!) in fits and starts. So once again, lets get it over with and start anew!

I am going to buy some PMs right as the press conference is ending, along with another 20 million who can still afford to. The rest of the population on the planet wishes they could do likewise.
Gold over $1,600 and Silver over $40 tomorrow before close.
I'm waiting until they raise the debt ceiling sometime in the next week... and then again for the QE3 announcement... Then that will probably my last buying of gold & silver... after that its lead ;-)
I am firewalled, what did he say what did he say? Will the baby get it if the debt ceiling is not raised?
Worse. He threatened to kill a puppy.
The man is insane I tell you. Insane.
He said, "I am not going to say anything except that it is the other team's fault."
OK, everyone switch teams. That should buy us another week or two.
One, two, three.......NOW!
Cougar, ye jest, but my local police official recently made a television appearance to threaten they were going to kill puppies if the sales tax wasn't raised... I'm not shitting you... you joke, but it really happens. (and it works!)
No.....but the sheriff will. (Christ, this is too easy.)
LMAO!!

Oops, sorry Mr President.
Barack: [low voice] Hold it! Next congressman refuses to hike the debt, the nigger gets it!
Timmay: Hold it, men. He's not bluffing.
Yes. Too easy.
Ouch he really an't bluffing

You will not believe this, but an hour ago I went on UTube to find that exact clip.
Yeah, life is starting to imitate art ... and not in a good way either.
I was googling for that one too about an hour ago. Did not post it because what I found is 4 minutes long.
They were all hold guns to the heads of Soldiers, Sailors, Police and their Baby's.
Same story...different day.
From two years ago:
What a complete and utter crock of schmidt!
Geithner? Geithner??!??
That's the most credible person they can send out to push this thing?
Are they so out of touch they dont realize Geithner is hated by us? I mean, even more hated than the avg politician ass hat up there in their $3,000 suits?
"Will the baby get it if the debt ceiling is not raised?"
They thought a puppy was just going to die, but now a baby too?
i want my debt ceiling NOOOOW!!!!!!
bring on the pitchforks !!
get em before Hillary imposes a global ban!
Aztlan Bitchez!!
Cut taxes to zero deficits and no intragovernmental borrowing to produce that number. With that token of good faith from our spend easy politicians, raise taxes to service the debt.
Then have both sides stfu for a few months. To all the special interests that raise holy hell, tell them to suck it. Real compromise is easy if they all had a spine and some balls.
Is this yet another attempt to impress on the average clueless MSM watcher that if we don't protect the status quo the world will end?
Yes.
the quo
only goes
to those
with status
