Obama says he cannot guarantee Social Security checks will go out on August 3

"I cannot guarantee that those checks will go out on August 3rd if we haven't resolved this issue. Because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it,"

So there you have it, a threat from the President of the United States! He's using the seniors in a ploy to make Boehner capitulate to his (O's) demands. Read the entire interview at CBS's Political HotSheet.

"A "real solution" to U.S. fiscal problems isn't possible as long as President Barack Obama remains in office," says Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

My suggestion, if you, President Barack Hussein Obama, would ever listen, is to take the money you are going to hold back from Pakistan and use that for the August Social Security checks; that is, if you really care about people!



And this brings to mind the End of Days blog and Dov Bar-Leib's analysis of 1 July 2011.
