Obama has a long fuse and people mistake that for lack of spine, but we have seen this week that he is not only "cool under pressure" he is cold as steel with a spine to match.
He has given rethugs enough rope to hang themselves. He is willing to risk his presidency on the principle of being president of the American people as opposed to the GOP who forgot they were NOT elected by only corporations and the multi-millionaires.
Tonight the GOP all voted AGAINST a non-binding agreement that millionaires should contribute more in shared sacrifice.
Obama tried to deal with the GOP - to Compose our exasperation, and his frustration - He couldn't seem to believe they could be so reckless and un-American to trash the nation for political gain -- but they showed themselves time and again -- so now everyone can plainly see that Obama is the smart one, the cool one, the right one, and the GOP is in trouble.

Joe Scarborough:THIS DEBT we're talking about IS GEORGE BUSH'S DEBT. The Republicans do not want to raise the debt ceiling on their own party's debt!

“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. Leadership means that ‘the buck stops here.’ Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America’s debt limit.”
— Barack Hussein Obama (March 16, 2006)
But now it's okay because he wants to do it.
you sound very naive when it comes to politics and what it takes for a PRESIDENT to make choices for the survival of a nation.
Those who oppose the raising of the debt ceiling under this president are doing it for one reason, to bring down this president.
grow up...
