Peas and Jell-O... Really?


I don't know how close of attention y'all have been paying to these debt discussions the President and Congressional leaders have been having this week.

It sounds more like a FOOD FIGHT.

I mean, take a look at what the President said on Monday:

"It's not going to get easier. It's going to get harder. So we might as well do it now -- pull off the Band-Aid; eat our peas. Now is the time to do it. If not now, when?"

Then, House Speaker Boehner on Wednesday:

"Dealing with them the last couple months has been like dealing with Jell-O," Boehner said. "Some days it's firmer than others. Sometimes it's like they've left it out over night."

Really?

Peas?

And Jell-O?

Two grown men... in a virtual food fight over the federal deficit.

Oh my.

Stupid! Time to get back to work, gentlemen. Get the waste and fraud out. Get the buget balanced. Once you do that then eat whatever you like.

It would appear the President prefers electioneering and posturing to governing by the Constitution. Why has he not been working on a viable budget according to the elected Representatives throughout the duration of his term? Is that not his job?
