RICHMOND, Va. (WLS) - The presidential race is already creeping onto local television in the 2012 battleground of Virginia. The Republican National Committee previewed a new 30-second attack ad Wednesday that portrays President Barack Obama as a dupe of a China that has mastered the United States by January 2017, the hypothetical end of Obama's second term. The ad, with light penetration but a big social media component in Virginia, depicts a wide-eyed girl in a darkened room fearfully viewing television images of Obama before a red-and-yellow Chinese flag and a cutaway shot of China's Communist leaders applauding. RNC political director Rick Wiley says the ad is also airing in North Carolina, Iowa, Ohio, Florida and Indiana - states Obama won in 2008 but Republican George W. Bush carried in his 2004 re-election. An afterthought in presidential elections for decades, Virginia was a decisive battleground in 2008 and a critical loss for the GOP in what had been a solidly Republican South. Obama was the first Democrat since Lyndon Johnson in 1964 to win Virginia in a presidential race. This year, not only is Virginia in play again, but Obama's chief supporter in 2008, then-Gov. Timothy M. Kaine, is in one of next year's most-watched U.S. Senate races. Republican George Allen, trying to win back the seat he lost to Democratic Sen. Jim Webb in 2006, is favored to win the GOP nomination over a little-known field. The GOP is striking while Obama struggles with Congressional Republican leaders to reach a compromise on raising the nation's $14.3 trillion borrowing limit by Tuesday or default on its bills for the first time in history. Wiley said polls show the drama is taking a toll on Obama heading into his re-election year. "Across the board you're seeing it," he said. "We believe Barack Obama is beatable." The ads, he said, "gives us a trial run before we put our grass roots in place across Virginia." Brian Coy, a spokesman for the Democratic Party of Virginia, said the GOP is "holding our economy hostage" for political gain. "They can launch all the ridiculous attack ads they want, but it won't distract Virginians from the fact that Republicans don't understand working families and don't have a plan to create jobs," Coy said.

Virginia is one of the states that will be hit the hardest if the GOP sends the country into default next week. If they want to have any prayer of winning, they'll increase the debt limit.
So...Your position is that the GOP must surrender again to the irresponsibly fiscal whims of the Leftist Dems in order to dethrone 0bama? LMAO. Virgina is a fedgov hive of bloated bureaucracy. Let these parasites get real jobs (oh, that's right - the ONLY jobs in Virgina are fedgov jobs. Eff 'em.
How is agreeing to pay the bills that the GOP ran up when they controlled both the Congress and WH capitualating to the "leftist dems"? "Spandex", btw, isn't an answer.
But is Lycra?? Lol... How is agreeing to pay the bills that the GOP ran up when they controlled both the Congress and WH capitualating to the "leftist dems"? War, let's be intellectually honest here; BOTH Parties ran up this un-godly debt. And BOTH Parties must ratchet down the un-godly spending. And have you forgotten that since 2007 when the Dems first began controlling the purse-strings that the debt really began exploding into the ionosphere?
The issue here is either honoring or not honoring debt. The rest is bullshit.
No, that's not the issue. The issue is whether we should be running up even more debt.
A separate issue that needs to be addressed AS WE ARE PAYING WHAT WE ALREADY OWE. If you're making the decision to finance a new car purchase, you don't stop paying the mortgage.
The only people who claim that we won't pay the interest on the current debt are fear mongering Democrats.
We have more than interest coming due. We have $90bln in TBills maturing on 8/4.
TBills mature all of the time. More TBills are sold to pay for the ones that are maturing. The only way that won't happen is if the Democrats convince people that the government is at risk of not paying interest on the debt. Obama could put all of this nonsense to bed today, by just telling us what he will prioritize if the debt ceiling isn't raised. But he won't do it because he'd rather scare old people, claiming their Social Security checks won't show up, to gain political advantage for himself. His behavior is sickening.

Okay...and...? TBills are subject to the statutory debt limit. The US will not be able to issue TBills to pay for the maturing ones because the Debt Limit is suubject to trade date accounting not maturity date. SS will be paid in August. Tax receipts in July and a CMB issued last week has ensured this.
His behavior is sickening. SPOT ON. 0bama's mission: Operation: FUBAR. LAUGH at Whitey. Play golf. More FUBAR.
