We can pay the bills without raising the debt ceiling.

>> Only in your crazy mind...default here means the unwillingness to pay bills we've incurred and previous and current administrations have written into law...crazy sob This is the left wing mantra, which has no basis in fact, whatsoever. We've only incurred those expenses if we choose to incur them going forward. This is liberalism at its worst: Money yet to be spent is money already spent. A reformulated language designed to confuse and mislead. Taxes are "revenue enhancements". Reductions in planned spending are "savings". Money yet to be spent is bills "already incurred". Congress can vote tomorrow not to spend money on anything. They can cancel contracts, they can cut funding for wasteful agencies. They do what the hell they want to; government contracts are cancelled all the time. And they should be. You notice how I showed your ignorance without once calling you crazy or SOB?
