x( just announced on MSNBC

1. That's BS. He is working for a default and is not interested in anything else. nt

[gateley]

6. Don't think so, they just mentioned that McConnell said "if we

default we own it" and he does NOT want to let that happen.

[AlinPA]

11. I wonder who said that he said it. McConnell needs and wants default now because he can pin it on

the President.

[gateley]

12. You and I are 'chatting' in two threads -- so I'll let this one

die and pick up "over there". :7 :hi:

13. He did in the MSNBC presser just now. Said he'd just talked to Pres & VP

in the last hour. But didn't say he'd actually had a face-to-face with them. MSNBC poured cold water on that idea. Phone conversation probably.

[AlinPA]

15. Doubtful that he talked with the VP and Obama. He is just playing with the media. nt

2. More like fully engorged.

[gateley]

7. In his dreams. nt

3. Oh goody! When is the wedding?

I hope we get an invitation.

5. hey mcconnell, it was your party that decided to link raising the debt limit to the deficit. If

this implodes it is on you and your republican thugs shoulders

Your party has already caused the financial collapse of 2008, and if we default in 2011 it is due to your garbage

I’m Yertle the Turtle! Oh, marvelous me!
For I am the ruler of all that I see!”

9. Is there time to throw them a shower?

[DURHAM D]

10. Oh great.

Obama will say - Just look here in my basket of traditional Democratic eggs. Pick the ones you want to break. Go ahead - its ok - I'm on your side. But don't tell Nancy and Harry.

14. When he refused to even talk to Reid, Obama should

have set him straight. Why is he letting him call all the shots? It's really tiresome, and routine at this point, and makes him look weak. Not to mention, it achieves nothing.
