Grover Norquist declared in an exclusive Newsmax TV interview that President Barack Obama will not get to increase the nation’s debt ceiling unless Republicans “get a dollar-for-dollar reduction in real spending.”

Let me see if I understand this. We raise the debt ceiling on the condition that for every dollar borrowed we spend one less dollar. (rounded to billions of course). In other words no debt reduction just none added on. It would be like a household budget where you tell your spouse "We wont incur any more debt but we wont pay off any bills either. So a few years from now we will still owe the same on our mortgage, credit cards, etc. Sleep tight." What a way to run a household let alone a country. :roll:

Who cares? The fact that he doesn't hold a political office like all the losers in Congress as well as the so called President and VP makes him more credible. :thumbup:
