1. I love her

hell I love most all our Democratic congress critters.

I'm listening to her too

[Tennessee Gal]

2. Laying it to Bush abusing the surplus from Clinton.

Democrats did not hold raising the debt ceiling hostage for Bush.

[Tennessee Gal]

5. Democrats have compromised.

Republicans say "my way or the highway."

[michaz]

6. She is understandable. n/t

[pacalo]

7. "Eric Cantor stalked out -- STALKED OUT -- took his little blankie, & went home."

[Tennessee Gal]

8. Why do they think they deserve everything they want?

Do they run the Senate? No, Democrats do.

[lunatica]

9. Boxer is one of my Senators and Barbara Lee is my Congresswoman

I don't even have to ask what their stand is. Both are progressive Democrats. And Jerry Brown is my Governor, so I have no complaints in spite of the Draconian spending cuts. UC Berkeley has another 5 million in cuts this year, after 8 million or so a couple of years ago.

10. They haven't come toward us.

They want this all over again in a few months.

Raised the debt ceiling 89 times and it has never been held hostage to a political party's hopes and dreams.

We should not be revisiting this every three or four months.

A recipe for chaos.
