O goody the Boner show again!
Were all those colorful ties voter tested for a positive response rate?
Of course, $100MM polls are necessary for these important issues. Like pastel colors. And shades of tan. And which hairspray is best.
I had to go out and get some lunch.
Did Boehner say anything? Or just the S.O.S.?
All I heard was the "parent voice" from Charlie Brown.
Wah wah wa wa wah wa.....
Thx JohnG! Glad I didn't miss anything
There's something seriously wrong with me b/c I immaturely laugh now whenever ZH runs any headline with 'Boehner' in the title.
WTF.
Yeah. I caught myself saying 'boner' in a conversation with a co-worker today, talking shit and realized that's not what his last name really is, but, like you, I can't help myself but laugh every time I read it.
I really think the pinnacle was seeing 'Weiner' and a 'Bo(eh)ner' at the same time on the ZH home page.
Every time it got me. Every frickin' time.
Money McBags has trained you well, now, join me on the Dark Side!
Bullish for stocks.
NFLX just gained around 10% right after the close.
Robotrader must be happy.
Hmm...wait, iPad was upside down.
Robotrader must be shitting his panties.
You made my day! That was funny!
Second great laugh of the day Ahmeexnal, thanks!
You had me going for a minute there, I've been had! LOL!!! Great comment.
Those ties represent the color noose the respective politico wishes to have when the whole Amerikan board game is finally flipped up from the playing table.
Boehner: "What the fuck do you mean faith has been lost in our currency? I'm going home."
"Tosses the game board from the table,"
Background music....again!:

When Boner talks, p*ssy listens
Hard talk on a wet day
Bhoaner keeps pulling out at the last second. He'd better be careful, because if he makes one mistake, this whole mess will be his baby.
+10 ;)
I get a good laugh almost every day around here.
Yet Another Reason (YAR) I like Zero Hedge.
And he is against abortion, pro-life, anti-choice . . . except the rules don't apply to anyone in Congress.
lol! too funny.
It's all about control..
Yep. He's a "hard one" to beat.
I was thinking about it, these people can't be this stupid. This is simply too much like a play or game. Are they that ignorant to the waking tide in this country that they don't realize how transpartent this whole charade is?!? Are they simply that bad at gauging the mass' awareness?
No, they don't understand that the masses are awakening. The ground is changing under their feet, and they don't have any other playbook. One easy example, take a close look at the pics of the alleged Oslo killer that came out a few days ago, the military uniform, the frogman uniform... obvious fakes. The entire event is transparent, and people get it. Three years, people would not see... but that has changed. TPTB are in deep shit.
I have to ask if these people are not that stupid, how did they get into this debt mess to begin with?
*Crickets* (10 second pause)
"Tradition"
Reminds me of the time I was at a fundraiser and met one of these congressional asshats. It's all summed up by our brief encounter. Me: "so what did you do before you were a congressman" CM: "I'm a U.S. congressman" Me: "Yes, I know. I was asking what you did before that." Awkward stare. Then his pissant aide, all of 21 is about to interject when suddenly "I used to sell vinyl siding"
So you see, the reason they seem unsophisticated is because they are. No need to over analyze tactics or search for some grand strategy. These douchebags are really just vinyl siding salesmen.
it's been a tough road, i agree. but look at how far they've come and ask "will they make it? will they make it?"

Nobody cares about the debt ceiling, they are more interested in the NFL and NBA lockouts.
I heard that Philly Eagles fans are already walking around with Brett Favre No. 4 jerseys already...
LOL.....
Nobody cares about the NBA lockout.
That's right. End the NBA with the Mav's as the last recorded NBA Champion....woooooo!!!
I care about the lockout. I'd love to have a year when I didn't have to watch basketball at the local watering hole!
Agreed, but the idea of a Congressional lockout is really beginning to grow on me!
There's an NBA lockout?
What's an NBA?
I wonder if these asshats practice (in front of the mirror of course) that "concerned look" everyone standing behind the speaker has hanging on their puss?
Lucky for them all they had on their face during the boner meeting was a concerned look.
They definitely weren't wearing their O face.
EXCELLENT, fuu! LOL... LOL...
Obrigado!
I can empathize with your cynicism CD; however, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar even with dear leader.
CD got it right, Boehner is obviously enjoying screwing around with Obama. The concernd look is faked.
As fake as his Ohio tan. Most of us non-fake bakers look like albinos until August really.
Boehnor's political career shows that left/right paradigm still exists in the minds of the masses, in Ohio at least.
Slight off center behind the camera is $350k/yr junior consultant on lease from PWC, BDO, etc That performs the same gestures that animal trainers do in hollywood movies, before all those movies went CGI.
It really is interesting to see those types on set with "the talent."
Wait a minute. Is "the talent" the monkeys or the monkey trainer? I forget.
Let's here what Boner's masters have told him to pass on to the sheeple.
He has painted O into a corner. Now the question is, will the Prez take us all over the cliff, or swallow his massive ego and be Boner's bitch.
I am The Chief.
Obama will cave. He has only two choices now. He must bow to Boehner or else default will be blamed on him. His ony other option? Executive order XXXXX eliminating the debt ceiling. Think it can't be done? Just watch.
O will end up swallowing everything that Bhoaner spews. Look to Harry Reid for the example: he's buns-up kneeling, waiting for Bhoaner to mount him.
Hearst, 4thStooge,
I hope O caves as well.
It would be nice to see the Worst President in History get a comeuppance!
Worst President in history? I dunnuo. The traitor Woodrow Wilson is at the top of my list.
Worst since Carter anyway...
Woodrow was the worst, without question. Bummer could could come close but he'd have to try real hard. WWIII is not out of the question though - he is as ignorant, malleable, and false as Wilson no doubt.
He was a fervent racist, BTW.
Another Liberal....
I thought W was the worst ever.
When do the commercials start?
They're practicing take after take so they can get one where Boehner is tearing up. I heard he might just say fuck it and yank a nose hair to get just the right glossy-eyes-but-not-crying look.
I think Boners tears are legit. You can almost see it in his eyes -
"Oh shit this country is so fucked and I am third in line for the Presidency so third in line for the post collapse slaugther."
Think I would be crying too. But what he needs to do is just tell the truth -
"Look... this country has been raped for 95 years by banking parasites, and it is time to rebuild. So we can either rally around our Muslem in chief and become socialist, and do this every ten years of so, or we can revert to a constitutional form of government and currency."
I am The Chief
come on john turn on the water works again...
I think the Boner's tears were legit. You could see it in his eyes -
"Oh shit... this country is screwed and I am third in line for the Presidency, so that means third in line for the beheadings that will follow our collapse."
If I were in the same seat i would have to just tell the truth. - "Look this country has been pilaged by a bunch of banking parasites and we are gonna have to rebuild. So do you want to rebuild a socialist state with the Muslem in chief, or get back to what made us a great country? Oh and yes, Pelosi and Reed are my bitches!"
I am The Chief
BRCM up 9% after hrs.
What, are they making chips for iPads now?

I bought some more silver today...(I bought @33 too, but, I think 8/2 has some fireworks left in it) how you been?
come on obama... dont be a bitch. just default already.
Why default when you can cause a Constitutional crisis? 14th Amendment BS.
"Never let a crisis go to waste."
Hell, even the perjurer Clinton thinks it's a good deal.
The rich will keep their tax breaks, the poor and middle class will pay for them....nothing will change.
mess with a jaw boner... get the horns
"The truth about insurance"...
I REALLY EXPECTED TO SEE SOMETHING ELSE :)
a 75 second press conference with zero information. priceless.
Reminds me of a meeting I had at work today.
Except it was two hours.
Stop Paying Your Taxes . . .
. . . and you collapse Govt and shut up these MF's once and for all
..how simple can it be, and think of all the quiet once these morons are gone?
Can't stop paying the inflation tax.
Yeah... I'm not sure you've thought your cunning plan all the way through. If you stop paying your taxes, hired thugs will come to your house, point guns at you, and make you pay. If you don't, they'll put you in a cage. In order for your plan to work, everyone would have to stop paying taxes at the same time, and most people are just too Goddamn stupid, or too lulled by McDonalds and reality TV, to even have the faintest inkling of the truth. Even the ones that do know the score are rather fond of keeping what few freedoms we still have, so they still pay, albeit begrudgingly, out of a sense of self-preservation. Like it or not, they have us painted into a corner. They are guarding all the exits, they are holding all the keys. And we allowed it to happen.
So yes, good idea in theory. It would indeed starve Mammon to death. But absent a fundamental, seismic shift in American consciousness, it is not going to happen. By all means, keep dreaming, but please realize that you are.
This exactly what I've been saying for years. Let's see them enforce payment when 40 million or so just don't pay. The resources are not there, not even close to enough cells.
Yes, dreaming I know, but I can hope.
blah blah nothing.....blah default already
whats the difference what he says, the joke is on us anyway.
Gotta see this: http://lmaobama.com/
WB7, lot's of material for you here.
Expect nothing, you'll never be dissapointed :)
True that.
Hey do I get to use my Total Score Points like frequent flyer miles?
I'll take the Guillotine on page 1614...yes the one with the gilding of gold and silver.
Would you like the complimentary straw head basket and natural leather leg and wrist straps with that?
As long as I don't have to pay additional shipping charges...but would you throw in that Chinese Finger Trap made of FRNs on the cover; it is worthless after all.
Add a butt plug and I'm in.
Hey How is NetFlix doing? Robo? Are you there?......
Robo sold exactly at the top don't you know.
So after "much ado about nothing" at the news conference - What is his final plan?
Eugenics, as you well know.

You know...
In the good old day 1 billion dollars was enough to buy a nuke on the black market...
America could nuke the world with 2 trillion... rebuild it all after 5000 years... AND HAVE ITSELF A RECOVERY.
WHY DOESN'T ANYBODY PLANS AHEAD ANYMORE?
The Nuclear Keynesian Solution. Broken windows? Shit, we broke the world. Talk about a set up for a recorvery.
Hey Tyler:
Senate Dems caved on taxes. According to Schumber, The House has 100 solid NO VOTES. How can the Senate not give in on timing now?
The Boehner plan is a mess...the Reid plan equally stupid. Where is the WH? They are writing statement for Reid and Schumer.
This may sound like a minor point, but notice that ALL the Republicans at the Boehner presser spoke directly to the cameras, while Boehner and Reid struggled to read copy written for them by the WH.

Damn, another Pacer fan here! Finally. That's old school stuff too. Is that you Vern Fleming?
Not one plan talks about how to get the 40MM+ off food stamps, or how to handle the double-digit unemployment rate.
As someone smarter than me said on here a while ago: They are arguing over what color to paint the kitchen as the house is burning down.
The "SNAP" program is about 45million recipients now...fyi.
Correct me if I am wrong but isn't that 45 million FAMILIES? The actual number of people in those families is anyones guess.
That is the number of Americans. Although who knows how many actually? According to wikipedia in 2009 1 in 8 "Americans" and 1 in 4 children were using food stamps.
My Bad. I went looking myself too:
http://www.fns.usda.gov/pd/SNAPsummary.htm
http://www.fns.usda.gov/pd/34SNAPmonthly.htm
When a person files for food stamps the amount you receive is based on the family size. So 45mil represents the total people.
1/7 food stamps. = 45 million
SS 16,114,000.
1 out of 5 supported by others.
http://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/statcomps/ssi_monthly/2011-06/table01.pdf
Now add in all government employees, aprox 22 million.
That's a total of 83 million supported by how many working slaves? 153.4 million, which I assume is civilian workforce.
http://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/empsit.pdf
If so, 2 go to work to support their family, PLUS 1 other.
It's time to redefine FAIRNESS.

The Social Security though they have paid into.
Has anyone paid for the Bush prescription drug program yet?
There's a free prescription drug program? Fuckin'-A Finally something worth while. Where do I sign up?

OK
How do you define "family"?
Single unmarried mothers with how the fuck many kids from multiple fathers?
How many families?
For reality's sake, are we going to recognize some "minor" cultural variances as to the number of children?
Howse about one father with 6 unwed mothers and 44 children? Is that one, many or indeterminate familiy(ies)?
Are any social groups excluded from the definition of family, like gays, etc.?
Has anybody even counted this shit?
Not really.
Does it even matter?
No
Why not?
Because it's all fucked up anyhow, little swizzle stick.
So can we get it unfucked?
No
So why do we pretend?
Because pretending is foundation of all civilisation.
Well, that's a big fuckin help Knukles.
Always happy to help shatter the illusion of the moment.
Good analogy! Playing lawn darts in the dark, comes to mind as well...
They had to do that while NFLX earnings were being announced? Efftards
Sometimes you have give credit where credit is due.
Someone runs a mean schedule in the Obamopticon!
It is truely a panopticon at this point.
Oh boy, Obammy coming on at 9pm to talk to the American people about a stalemate in debt talks....does he even realize the people want no debt ceiling raise, no tax increases, no SS raids, and for him to stop wasting Trillions of dollars each year on his new banker friends on Wall St?
Default is the best option for everyone. Short term, there will be some pain, but long term we all win. Default and get it over with.
Now, now - lets not ruin the party with the truth. Have you tried the lies? They're wonderful with a side of deceit drizzled with pandering.
LoL, thanks chuckle!
Hyperinflation conditions will set in, reports investment legend Marc Faber, once payments on debt exceed 30% of tax revenue which, according to projections of analyst Michael Murphy, will be October 2011.
Not long until hell is unleashed world wide.
boaner to obamoa "that's a mouthfull".........................
NFLX down hard AH. -25
Shhh you'll upset the permabull momos...
When Barry has got a mouthful of Boener, I hope he doesn't forget to mind the stepchildren.
Ha. They could set discretionary spending to zero for the next 10 years and still be screwed in the long run. Anyone who finds this toe-dipping into the deep, cold waters of budget realities bracing will really enjoy the big swim later.
I have to listen to Otool again? He is like a [ PSA ] for Politicians on crack!!! Give him a (KAZOO) so I can stave off (A.D.H.D.)!
This ass clown couldn't give away T.V. time!
And now The Teleprompter is going to grace us once again with a prime-time campaign commercial - I mean, statement. President Hissyfit will probably endorse Tara Reid's "plan" because he probably loves it:
1) it gives him the $2.4T no-questions-asked credit line,
2) it kicks the can out past the 2012 election (maybe), and
3) the "spending cuts" are made-up almost entirely of not-spending DOD money in Iraq and Afghanistan and simply made-up stuff
In other words, everything The Banksters and other rent-suckers and Free-Stuff Soldiers are demanding.
In all seriousness, is Boehner fucking stupid? In that I mean an IQ about 95ish? The guy just seems completely dim to me. I'm no raging Democrat either.
They are all " DERELICTS"... You changed your avatar. I like it.
Not a raging Dem? How about commenting on the potted plant in the WH, or that senile Leader in the SINate?
Don't you mean the " AMOEBA" in the W.H.?
No, the "paramecium" in the White House.
Tuco
Yea, no doubt, that's terrible too. But the question was towards Boehner. Sorry, he's just dumb and of average to below average intellect. Obama's just a fucking sleazoid but it's technically stupid. Same with Cantor, Reid, Geithner, Bernak and the like.
I don't know if it's worse to be smart and a corrupt scumbag or too fucking stupid for the job. I know that Boehner isn't even reasonably capable of the job aside from his political stripes. You can't actually listen to him and not draw the conclusion if you aren't blinded by the partisian garbage.
Concrete. Are there any lakes deep enough in Ohio? Or maybe they can put him in any new construction near Hoffa?
Lake Erie is about ~200 FEET! That should do the trick.
There's no need to pollute the lake with Bhoaner. Just put him on the curb on trash night and he'll be hauled off to the proper place.
BTW, since it looks like Yucca Mountain won't be used as a dump for nuclear waste, can we use it as a landfill for politicians?

It's all a big game of chicken to see who flinches before they raise the ceiling. What does it matter anymore if the currency is worthless...if everyone agrees to keep playing along, it can go on forever.
Remember Jerry... it's not a lie if YOU believe it.
George Costanza
You'll get what you deserve from these muppets....nada!
The TEA Party ain't gonna buy it.
NO DEAL, HOWIE!
Will Weiner-Wu have any effect on this deal?
If you seek nothing concrete, you're in for a treat!
Watching sports on television is retarded. Go idolize other things/people. Nothing more mind-numbing than sitting around and watching "sports."
I'd holocaust all you sports-watching assholes, if I could.
Obama going to raise the debt ceiling tonight..
Calling Dr. Moe, Dr. Larry, Dr. Curly . . .
Making all this even more absurd: Boehner can't deliver enough votes from his own party to make the debt ceiling pass. Republican negotiation strategy: Refuse to return telephone calls; publically call out the other side as "chicken", "jello" and "vile and despicable" (Love to hear what they are saying in private); after negotiating for seven months, 1) present proposals without details (details to be worked out "by committee"); claim the other side lacked leadership.
Seems to me, it would probably be cheaper for the rich folk to agree to revenue increases then risk having the democrats man up by letting the US default and thus allowing the economy to fail. But what the hay. As DeMint pointed out, the democrats usually fold rather than risk potential catastrophe (see Bailout, TARP).
Predict Boehner will have have Obama, Reid and Pelosi give him and Kantor sexual favors on live TV on the Senate floor as a condition of delivering some Republican votes to raise the debt ceiling. Then he'll not deliver the votes.
Boehner is a great (used car) salesman. He started his Congress days as a leader well; On the Congress floor, Boehner was handing out checks from the Tobacco lobby to his fellow Republicans. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAC2xeT2yOg. Steve Largeant called him out. But Boehner not only survived scandal but flourished. Sad.
Maybe the Demos should send the Weinerman to negotiate for them.
Well, the pathalogical lying cskr in Chief speaks at 9:00 EST, so re-program your DVDR's.............And get ready for more lies.
I'll take this guy over Obummer any day of the week! Nothing wrong with having "Boner" for a last name, yes yes, I too am jealous.
Let's vote Curious George out next year once and for all!
