And it would be nice to see [Obama] match words with deeds soon – not caving to GOP blackmail on the debt ceiling might be a place to start. But Republicans are acting like terrorists, threatening to take down the economy in the absence of big cuts. It's scary out there right now, and we need a leader who'll fight for what he believes in."Acting like terrorists"? When Senator Obama voted against raising the debt ceiling in 2006, was he acting like a terrorist too? If Obama doesn't cave to "GOP blackmail", wouldn't he be "threatening to take down the economy" also?
This is a legitimate political debate and an important negotiation. Both sides are using brinkmanship. I don't think only one should be cited for it - particularly when Obama wielded the same club five years ago. Walsh's rhetoric is atrocious.
