>Oh bullshit, you really believe that excuse from Obama?

How is that an excuse? The Republicans have said they will not budge one bit from their starting point. What can Obama accomplish with them?

>If the federal debt really isn't such a big deal, then Obama should just say so, then push for getting rid of the debt ceiling.

He unfortunately doesn't believe it.

>Do you really think the Republicans relish the idea of political brinkmanship every few months because of this debt ceiling? Of course not. But they have to go through this because they believe (probably their only unifying belief left) that Washington HAS to curb spending.

YES! They love it!

>You obviously don't believe so, and that the mean ole Republicans are just giving Obama a hard time. Meanwhile the public is getting tired of this same old same old.

I don't even think most of the public understands what's going on. The sequester is kind of obscure.

>"Obama is not a dictator." Come on, you KNOW he wants to be. Pushing agendas would be SOOOO much easier if he were.

Uh, it was Bush who said that at least three times.
