We are finished

I still think there is going to be a default. Obama has been a disappointment and needs to stand up for the American people.

[LonePirate]

1. Obama won't stand up for his supporters and party. Why would he stand up for the American people?

[maryellen99]

2. What the hell is he afraid of?

Ending up like JFK? I can't believe he is afraid of that POS McConnell.

[Dragonfli]

4. It is not fear, he is a true believer of Reaganomics, a Trojan horse, he lied in the campaign /nt

[kath]

5. +1000.

[Doctor Hurt]

3. OMG OBAMA SUX

just get it out of your system.

[Kablooie]

6. Relax. They'll get it done.

It may destroy everything we hold dear but what the hell, life is just a bowl of cherries.

Maybe next time when you come back as a gerbil or something it'll be better.

[tinrobot]

7. Perhaps point the finger towards the GOP instead of Obama

They're the ones who fabricated this "crisis"

[maryellen99]

8. Oh I am pissed at them too nt

[murielm99]

9. Okay, we can point fingers.

We are pointing fingers.

It won't mean a thing if we lose everything that makes us Democrats, everything that makes us a country that takes care of ordinary people.

I'm happy to go through the empty exercise of finger-pointing. While it makes us feel good, it solves nothing.

Do I have any answers? No. But I don't think Obama has any right to let us live with this fear. That is not leadership.
