Obama to Banks: We’re Not Defaulting

Charlie Gasparino at Fox Business:

While officials from the Obama Administration raised their rhetoric over the weekend about the possibility of a debt default if the debt ceiling isn’t raised, they privately have been telling top executives at major U.S. banks that such an event won’t happen, FOX Business has learned.

Of course. Everyone who’s been paying attention has known this from the start of this whole mess.

This is just further evidence that Obama is in fact using the threat of default to motivate action on his own reckless agenda. Ironically, this is something his own cronies are accusing Republicans of doing.
