So, when the Republicans capitulate, you will condemn them?
You read, but seldom comprehend. But alas, you are a dishonest dunce stuck on a special brand of partisan stupid.
Like I said; you're welcome to prove the dunces case that Republican Presidents spend more than Democraric Presidents, but I won't hold my breath waiting for that event to occur because even though you are a dishonest dunce, you're smart enough to know you can't support the patently false claim.
No, I understand your point exactly. thanks
I will condemn them, Obama, Democrats and the mainstream media engaged in journalistic malfeasance.
But it is amusing that dimwitted partisan dunces like you think this is uniquely a Republican Party issue. But then, you're stuck on that special brand of partisan stupid.
I won't expect you to condemn Democrats acting like spoiled children and not negotiating or this childish juvenile Presidents petulance; you're just too stupid to see how detrimental these partisan games are to the nations economic health.
I don't think you are capable of understanding much of anything.
So you say!
I wont condemn anyone, I think they have to extend the debt limit. If anyone is honestly concerned about spending they should introduce some bills in congress to cut some specific spending.
Again, it is hard to take your partisan bullshit seriously. Would you like to see the list of bills sitting on Harry Reids desk? Or would you prefer to continue wallowing in self imposed ignorance to sustain your dishonest partisan bullshit?
Show me a bill to cut specific spending that the republicans are willing to call to the floor for a vote.

MAGA MAN

Obviously the GOP leadership has no interest in eliminating waste and corruption.
So you are saying they should or should not increase the debt ceiling?
Too lazy to find them yourself Counselor?

Federal employees owe $1.03 billion in unpaid taxes
Chaffetz and Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) have authored bills that would force federal agencies, the U.S. Postal Service and congressional offices to fire employees who purposely avoid paying taxes. Exceptions would be made for employees suffering from family turmoil or working to correct significant financial hardship. Chaffetz’s bill was approved by a committee last spring, but Coburn’s still awaits consideration by a Senate panel.
U.S. House. “H.R. 828, Federal Employee Tax Accountability Act of 2012.” (as passed by the House 31 Jul 2012.)
Jobs Bills:
House Passed Jobs Bills
H.R. 872, the Reducing Regulatory Burdens Act
The bill would amend the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) to clarify that the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or a state may not require a permit under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act for the application of pesticides regulated under FIFRA. The Reducing Regulatory Burdens Act would ensure that pesticide users are not faced with unnecessary regulations that harm job growth.
H.R. 910, the Energy Tax Prevention Act
The bill would strip the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of its ability to use the Clean Air Act to regulate greenhouse gases. Without this legislation, the agency will continue with its plan to implement burdensome new rules and regulations on American businesses that will have a significant negative impact on America’s economy while having virtually no positive impact on global temperatures.

H. J. Res. 37, Disapproval of FCC’s Net Neutrality Act
H.J. Res 37 would prohibit the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) from imposing net neutrality regulations on Internet providers. Net neutrality is likely to cripple competition, restrict innovation, reduce employment and raise costs for all consumers—all of which would only exacerbate the current economic downturn. These job-killing regulations would involve significant new controls on the Internet that would have significant implications for investing in innovation and broadband deployment.

H.R. 2018, the Clean Water Cooperative Federalism Act
The bill would amend the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to preserve the authority of each State to make determinations relating to the State's water quality standards. This would reduce the federal government’s power over individual state’s water quality standards to help increase job growth.
H.R. 1315, Consumer Financial Protection & Soundness Improvement Act
This bill is will amend the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act to strengthen the review authority of the Financial Stability Oversight Council of regulations issued by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection. The increased accountability will help to prevent harmful job-killing regulations.
H.R. 2587, Protecting Jobs from Government Interference Act
The bill would prohibit the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) from ordering any employer to close, relocate or transfer employment under any circumstance. Federal bureaucrats should not be reversing the business decisions of private employers. Washington already has too many harmful regulations that hurt job growth. The Protecting Jobs from Government Interference Act would help ensure that the government agency does not over step their bounds by dictating decisions made by private sector companies.

H.R. 2401, Transparency in Regulatory Analysis of Impacts on the Nation (TRAIN ACT)
The TRAIN Act would establish an 11-member committee, chaired by the Department of Commerce, to analyze the impacts of a number of major Environment Protection Agency (EPA) regulations. The agency often understates the negative impact its rules will have on jobs and energy prices. This is why we need a committee whose sole purpose is to analyze the cumulative impacts of EPA regulations. The TRAIN Act would push back against the EPA's unconstitutional, outrageous rules and regulations that raise energy prices for consumers, destroy jobs and increase our dependence on foreign sources of energy.

H.R. 2681, Cement Sector Regulatory Relief Act
The bill would prohibit the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations from coming into effect which would place burdensome regulations on the cement industry. The cement industry estimates that the rule could destroy as many as 4,000 jobs. The Cement Sector Regulatory Relief Act would stop the unnecessary cement MACT rule which will cost thousands of jobs and hamper economic growth.

H.R. 2250, EPA Regulatory Relief Act
The bill would help to curtail the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Boiler MACT regulations on boilers and industrial incinerators. The Council of Industrial Boiler Owners estimates that the regulations will cost 244,000 jobs. The EPA Regulatory Relief Act would help to roll back unreasonable regulations and save thousands of American jobs.

H.R. 2273, Coal Residuals Reuse and Management Act
The bill would prohibit the EPA from regulating coal ash as a toxic waste in any state which prefers to develop its own plans in that regard. This bill would further slow the EPA’s Regulatory Trainwreck and could save thousands of jobs in coal-rich states such as West Virginia and Ohio.
H.R. 1230, Restarting American Offshore Leasing Now Act
The Restarting American Offshore Leasing Now Act (H.R. 1230) would establish statutory deadlines for sales of certain oil and gas leases in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). CBO estimates that enacting this legislation would reduce net direct spending by $25 million over the 2011-2016 period and about $40 million over the 2011-2021 period. Restarting offshore leasing will help restore thousands of jobs.
H.R. 1229, Putting the Gulf of Mexico Back to Work Act
The bill would amend the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to facilitate the production of American energy resources from the Gulf of Mexico. The Obama administration has delayed or canceled offshore lease sales in the Gulf of Mexico. The bill would jump start offshore oil drilling by implementing a 30-day deadline in which the secretary of the U.S. Interior Department would have to make a decision on the Gulf of Mexico drilling permit applications. The bill would likely help to create tens of thousands of jobs and strengthen the economy.

H.R. 1231, Reversing President Obama’s Offshore Moratorium Act
The bill would reverse President Obama's Offshore Moratorium Act and amend the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to require that each 5-year offshore oil and gas leasing program offer leasing in the areas with the most prospective oil and gas resources and would establish a domestic oil and natural gas production goal. Reversing the offshore moratoriums will help restore thousands of jobs.
H.R. 2021, the Jobs and Energy Permitting Act of 2011
The bill would eliminate needless permitting delays that have stalled important energy production opportunities off the coast of Alaska. Rather than having exploration air permits repeatedly approved and rescinded by the agency and its review board, the EPA will be required to take final action – granting or denying a permit – within six months. The Jobs and Energy Permitting Act of 2011 would speed up the permit process to help create jobs.
H.R. 1938, North American-Made Energy Security Act
The bill would require the President to issue a final order granting or denying the Presidential Permit for Keystone XL 30 days after the issuance of the final environmental impact statement, but in no event later than November 1, 2011. A Canadian pipeline company, TransCanada, has long sought to increase the capacity of its Keystone pipeline system in order to bring more Canadian crude oil to American refineries. The North American-Made Energy Security Act would boost jobs and lower the price of gasoline for all Americans.

Obviously the DNC leadership want to expand the waste and corruption.
None; it only benefits the corrupt irresponsible Washington Politics many of us find so reprehensible.
And the House Republican Majority has brought any of these to a vote?
I see only one of those that illustrates direct spending cuts.
Do I look like your law clerk; do your own research counselor and then tell me why we, the sheeple, are stupid enough to allow these politicians to keep spending OUR money like drunken sailors on steroids.
Damn you are dumb.
See, I asked you to give me bills they are willing to call to a vote.... you just gave me a bunch of lip service and crap...
