Own it!
Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz crowed, “We (Democrats) own the economy.” Now they own something else. The default.
How do they own it?
It is simple. The House has already sent the Cut, Cap and Balance act over to the Senate. There was never a true up or down vote on the bill. Harry Reid simply tabled it.
Now, John Boehner is going to try and send his Boehner plan over to the Senate for consideration. Assuming the plan passes the House, which at this point is still not a safe assumption, Harry Reid, the leader of the Party of Treason in the Senate has already announced he would call the Senate into session and immediately kill whatever bill Boehner sends over.
Boehner’s bill is a disaster. However, by announcing he would kill it immediately, Reid showed his true colors and the true colors of the Party of Treason. There can only be one bill for them. That is the bill of complete surrender by the GOP. The only thing the Dems are going to accept is something that cuts no spending, increases taxes and the debt.
Even John Boehner probably will not surrender to this. So you have it.
The Democrat Party Default.
The Democrats own this default. They will not compromise. The Boehner plan is pretty awful and does not do anything to help stop the insane spending and borrowing that is bankrupting our country.
But at least the House has passed one plan (Cut, Cap and Balance) and by the end of the day may pass a second one.
What has Obama done? Nothing
What has Harry Reid done? Nothing.
The Democratic strategy has been simple and we have mentioned it here before. Either panic the GOP into a really bad plan, even worse than the really bad Boehner plan or blame Republicans for the default.
Make no mistake, the Boehner plan is pretty bad. Cut, Cap and Balance is a much better bill. However, the Democrats insist on unilateral surrender by the Republicans. The only way they will agree to any bill is a bill that includes no spending cuts, but contains economically harmful tax increases as well as a massive increase in the debt ceiling.
The only thing that is acceptable to the Party of Treason is a formula that provides for the easy endless expansion of the welfare state. John Boehner may be the sugar daddy of the welfare state but even he is smart enough not to commit political suicide, which is what the Democrats are asking. The government is twice the size it was a decade ago and has grown thirty percent since Barack Obama took over the White House. That is too much, even for John Boehner. http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2011/jul/27/tom-...
If the Democrats say it is their way or the highway, then fine, it is time for us to say game on.
Many of us grew up in an age where our parents told us, “you do not start a fight but you finish one.” It is time for us to finish this fight. Obama, Pelosi and Reid are spoiling for a fight. They believe the media will protect them and work for them as Clinton had the luxury of a complete media protective blanket in 1995.
That was 16 years ago. The conservative media did not exist then as it does now. We have the ability to bypass the drive by media and get our message directly to the people.
There could be a blessing in disguise here.
We do not want this default, but if Obama, Pelosi and Reid are going to force it, then we will make them own it.

I want more people like the Tea party members in congress next time and these RINOcrats like Beohner need to be sent packing and McCain needs to have his Hobbit speech kept alive so he takes a walk the next time he is up for re-election.
Boehners bill at 950 billion over 10 years is 79.17 billion per year when the spending is over 400 billion a day which means the savings in the bill is less than 1/4 of one days spending per year. We would still have a daily spending rate of 321 billion per day. That is utterly ridicules!

I agree with your viewpoint, Judson. However, I have little confidence in all
but the Tea Party Republicans standing firm to the last minute panic and the
Democrat media prophets of doom and blame. The establisment Republicans
have a dismal track record for standing up for what they are supposed to believe.
Therefore, the chance of Obama owning a default are slim. The buck NEVER stops
with this President. The buck always is someone elses fault in his opinion. I don't see
a default coming. But, I do see a disasterous compromise based on Reid's plan and
blamed on Republicans. The system is broken beyond repair. Without Cut, Cap and Balance
ammendments, along with term limits, we are done.

Let the default happen. It time for the government to acknowledge that its bankrupt. It time to cut spending to the bare bones by the government. We need to limited the government to those powers specified or enumerated in the Constitution.

I agree Samuel Mark Kelley....NOW is the time to prepare for all new Congress and an All new Senate. People who will work for a better USA and not career politicians that can not make it in the real world. Let the Congressman and Senators leave their office. The will draw good, Anthony Weinner is earning 1.3 million dollars for his 12 years of service. So they will not have to starve. lets get some people in that will close down the connection to AIG Financial and pass down laws that makes it illegal for a few select to be out of the Social Security INSURANCE Program. Some people who are there to work for our country and not line their pockets with gold and silver from our sweat and tears. Someone who is willing to accept an interruption for a period of no longer than 2 terms of service to our country. Someone who will work hours expected to of him, not just when he wants or he thinks that someone will notice. Only one piece of legislation at a time no piggy back rides or hidden agenda. If a man says one thing in Congress or Senate, he had better be willing to take the heat to back up his words. Too many have went in with good intentions and making promise they can not keep. If they can not keep their word fire them and we start that now by IMPEACHMENT Process on our biggest problem our country has. Obama needs to go and and Criminal charges that can filed on him needs to be filed and then he should be exiled from our country to never return under any circumstances and tell Bill Clinton and Hillary they could be next.
