President Obama has a pair of dueces, so the GOP cannot compromise. by Mark Vogl

If Republicans are going to support raising the debt ceiling they need to require the following things happen first:
Repeal of every page of Obama Care repealed by both Houses, signed by Obama.
Passage of a Balanced Budget. Passage in both Houses, sign by Obama.
Closing of the Department of Education. Passed and signed.
Submission of a budget!
These are the beginning. We are at the crossroads. The ceiling CANNOT be raised without the Republican House. It is clear by the need to raise the Debt ceiling that America CANNOT AFFORD OBAMA'S HOPE AND CHANGE.
This is the place, this is the point.
Americans are willing to accept whatever happens if the debt ceiling is not raised. But, we are not willing to accept an impotent Tea Party!
The historic resemblance of the Indians in Boston Harbor to today's popular revolt last Novemberis really startling. But it is accurate. Americans are done with talk, compromise, folly. Its time now for reality to finally intrude within the Beltway of Washington.
God has provided the means. God has provided the conservative majority in the House. All we have to do what is obvious.
No tax increases. No ...make a deal which is verifiable. And the only way to do that is by passing the repeal of Obama Care, passing a Balanced Budget and closing the Federal Department of Education BEFORE THERE IS A VOTE TO RAISE THE CEILING! After they have passed, been signed, and are law. Then and only then pass a temporary raising of the debt ceiling which also requires balanced budgets by a year certain.
The politicians have proven they are oot trustworthy. The President already reneged on deals he made. We cannot trust them to do something in the future. So there is no trust by verify. Now we verify to trust.
Republicans in the House must stand, they must have the courage of the Founding Fathers. The Republicans in the House must understand that the reason this is so difficult today, is because we have avoided dealing with these issues earlier. It won't get easier. But, it is doable here. The voice of the people can be heard. Reasonableness can return to DC. Reality can return to Washington. This is the place.
Americans are ready to accept what God has for us. There will be tough times ahead. There isn't really a question about that. The real question is whether you want to return to a free, capitalist nation built on the original Constitution, or do you want socialism, loss of real potential and the end of the United States as a City on the Hill. More government, more government spending, more taxation will not improve economy, it will only devour it faster. Accepting the loss ofgovernment spending will hurt initially, but over the long run it will provide the fertile ground for a renewed American economy.
Also, it won't just be the liberalsspecialprojects to be cut. America needs to realize it is one nation in a world of two hundred. Our days as leader of the free world are over. Globalism is not in our best interest. Other nations like China, India, Brazil, and Indonesia can grow as economic competitors. We should compete in the world market place, but America's market should be America's. We need to develop our own energy resources. We should build the infrastructure, through private finance, to provide the energy needed for America. We should rebuild our industrial base.
All of this is work. All of this will require time. There will be sacrifice. But there will also be a need for the private sector jobs to do this work.
And we need to secure our borders. There is a cost to that. But we dont have to pay government union wages if we create a militarized homeland defense force to man the border.
America can move in a completely new direction. Our future can be bright. And this is the crossroads where it can begin. If the Republicans hold firm, they can start to win the confidence of the American people. If they don't...then there is no need to look to the GOP as the choice, and its time for a new political party. If the GOP can't win with five aces...they can't win..
I rarely agree with Sean Hannity, but he is exactly right! Hannitys prescription is exactly right. The only compromise the GOP makes is raising the debt ceiling. But to get that, the GOP makes a list of demands, stands by them, and thats it.. Its now or never. Republicans this is your time, your chance to show America whether you get it.
