Just rip off the band aide and get it over with

It’s Wednesday.  It's two days after the inauguration.  So, right on schedule John Boehner is set to cave on raising the national debt ceiling. Big John tells us not to worry though, the adjustment is only temporary. Aren’t they all? Yeah well, this one though is unusually temporary. It’s only three months.


That’s the amount time Boehner figures it’ll take Harry the roach Reid to pull his head out of his scrawny @$$ and pass a Senate budget. Hmm, it’s been what, four years since the Senate passed a budget? So yeah, three months will definitely be enough time to get it done this time.

Boehner has threatened to suspend the pay of congress until a budget is passed. Great. That just reminds me we’re paying this dysfunctional bunch a lot of money to wreck the country.

For his part, LB says he’ll sign the three month deal if it passes. Boehner is declaring this a great victory, because heretofore LB has threatened to veto anything does not declare him Lord and Master of the Universe for Life. A victory no matter how small or irrelevant is still a victory.

Expect to see Republicans high fiving it around the Capitol building today. Yeah we showed him.

Prediction: In three months we’ll be right back where we are with another three months of spending debt piled on top of the 16 trillion already accumulated. There will be no senate budget. If there is it will be chock full of tax increases or as the Dopes call them “investments” or “revenues” on nearly everyone. That will be the second tax increase the Republi-rats will be forced to vote on. If they cave this time there truly is no reason to ever vote Republican again.

Republicans are like a little kid trying to avoid his chores. He’ll come up with almost anything to avoid the unpleasant task. Hey John, the task isn’t going away. Dive in and get it done.

It is clear that LB wants one of two outcomes, Republicans to get blamed for shutting down the government in a Demo-Dope manufactured crisis or Republican to cave and raise taxes…AGAIN.

So John choose your medicine and get on with it.

Washington pols tell bare faced lies, then double down with more lies, such as Shillda Beast yesterday. The spending by our feds is out of control, a few people pay all the bills, unemployment is chronic, and the second amendment is under attack. Guns and ammo sold out. How does this end? Hey, even parinoid people have enemies. The Griffin.
