Reelection More Important to Obama than Avoiding Default: 2013 Debt Ceiling Demand is About Campaign 2012

On Friday, John Boehner was demonized for not bowing down to Obama on Obama's demands to raise the debt ceiling. Obama put the weight of default on the shoulders of Republicans; however, Obama's demands are showing he is the hard head when it comes to the parties involved.

Obama vowed he will veto any agreement to raise the debt ceiling if it doesn't extend the debt ceiling to a number that won't be met until 2013. In other words, reelection is more important to Obama than avoiding default. Obama is fighting not to save this country, but to save his presidency, and for that we all should be fed up. Obama doesn't want a debt ceiling battle next year knowing it will be the final nail in his coffin on a disastrous presidency. If this August 2 date is as crucial as Obama and Timothy Geithner claim, then why is Obama playing the politics designed to avoid a debt celing debate during his reelection bid?
