Are you gonna call?
« on: July 26, 2011, 09:23:26 AM »
President Obama, Roland Martin, DL Hughley, Donna Brazile, and a whole bunch of celebs are asking Americans to contact their representatives and urge them to cooperate and settle this debt ceiling issue.

Quote
Washington (CNN) - President Obama called on Americans to let their members of Congress know how they feel about breaking the stalemate over the government's debt ceiling.

In a rebuttal, Speaker of the House John Boehner said the president continues to want "a blank check" and vowed that Republicans won't let that happen.

There is no way the two parties are going to leave the debt ceiling as it is. The US prizes that AAA rating.

Can't imagine a world of finance without a risk-free asset!  :o

Nope.  Not callin'.  Ain't gonna do it.   





But only because both my reps (House & Senate) are already on board.  Now, I ain't above callin' somebody else's rep........
