Where do we go from here?
Last night was just the first battle in this budget war. Soon they will have to vote to increase the debt limit. The Repubs will not want to increase it to the same level as President Obama and the Democrats. What happens then?

Do we agree to more cuts so we can get a vote to increase the debt limit? After all, as we will soon find out, the world will end if we do not increase it.

What do we have left to cut? We are now into big-ticket items: Medicare, SS, Defense, Medicaid, etc. Which will be chosen for the chopping block?

It will be here sooner than we think. What do we do next?

1. Why don't they cut the fucking wars????
This is seriously pissing me off. We stand to lose nearly 1,000,000 jobs, yet we found a way to fund yet another pointless war with Libya. :grr: :mad: :grr; :mad:
