default on the debt with our control of the House. Do you think the GOP president would be scrabbling to meet our demands?

Hell no, they would call our bluff. Because they know that it would make us look like fools and would not cave to our demands at all.

Why is it that Obama does not realize that the GOP will not default and why does he not know that he needs to call their damn bluff?

WTF is wrong with the Democrats? No backbone at all. So disappointed.

2. Maybe "Dems" refuse to use all the tools in their toolbox for a reason.

4. This bunny thinks BHO will cave only if he wants to cave, that is, to see the Republican
tax agenda implemented in large part. Having previously caved by not allowing Bush's tax cuts expire, that is, by implementing his own tax cuts, seems to fit this paradigm to a tee. :patriot:
