2.Why are you blaming the GOP when Obama is not negotiating AT ALL, in addition, if the American people don't want Obamacare, and the GOP is trying to defund it, are you saying Obama should go against the will of the people?

Does the Tea party want to deliberately crash the U.S. economy?
Ineptocracy: A system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.
Bush’s way was simply a different version of Obama’s way. Bush inherited and maintained, even expanded, Big Government. He lowered taxes a little, only temporarily. However, under his watch federal regulations went up, not down—just as they always do. Under his watch, government committed trillions more of future dollars into the Medicare prescription drug program. Under Bush’s watch, the federal government expanded its role, and spent billions more, on socialized education, popularly and fondly known as public schools. Under Bush’s watch, the federal government continued the policy of the liberal Democratic Clinton Administration, to use government manipulation and regulation of the marketplace to ensure that everybody got an easy mortgage—ultimately leading to the mortgage industry’s collapse, when those mortgages could not be paid back.
Obama outright declares class warfare. He’s open and unapologetic about it. He says, in essence, “Some people make too much money. It’s THEIR fault that you suffer.” He has created such a bad situation in this country psychologically that production finds itself both unwilling, and unable, to really soar again.

Yes, the TP is deliberately holding the USA,it's citizens
it's gov workers, and it's credit rating hostage.
If the 120+ replies say anything else, it's a some dreamed up excuse.
Why do we take exception to the debt ceiling since 2010 ?
We've had it for all the other Presidents and Congress.
It was non issue until Obama.
What's different now?
I wonder....

Well, the Tea Party and GOP people are the ones that started the government shut down. As much as you'd like to try and reverse the blame back onto the president, it doesn't work. What I am hearing is, "Obama's administration is FORCING us to shut down the government! It's not OUR fault, he's MAKING US shut it down!"
It's a simple reverse psychological tactic, and a thinly veiled one at that.
That is like a raping someone, and then claiming that the victim forced them to do it. "They should have known better, they were asking for it ..."
Or, it's akin to holding a class room hostage and claiming that the police outside are forcing you to take hostages.
Nope, sorry -- you chose to take hostages first. The GOP and the Tea Party made the first move in terms of shuttering the government. The ONUS isn't on Obama to cave, it's on the 30-40 so people in congress holding everyone hostage to come out with their hands up.edit on 15-10-2013 by MystikMushroom because: (no reason given)

BS.
The healthcare was great in this country. People from all over the world come to America to receive care because of the skill of our specialists , the quality of our hospitals, and the cutting edge level of our treatments.

BS. I have been unable to walk or stand for more than 5 minutes for the past 6 months due to a back injury that isn't healing. I have no insurance, I cannot afford insurance, my job which I work at for more than 40 hours a week doesn't pay enough, as it is I'm lucky I can afford rent. I have no option for medical treatment unless it's an emergency (and if it is I have to show up without an ID so they can't find and bill me 3 years salary for a 5 minute visit). Care in this country sucks.

Your issue doesn't seem to be with the care you receive . . . it seems to be with the fact that you feel you shouldn't have to pay for it. Moreover, you're upset that your job doesn't pay you enough.
The "care" is just fine . . . you just can't afford it and don't want to have to pay for the doctors, nurses, and use of their equipment. So much so, you pretty much admit to fraud by claiming you go to the ER without any I.D., so they can't track you down later to recoup for the efforts of their labor.
