  1. Raze the debt ceiling

    The announcement that House Speaker John Boehner has offered to take the debt ceiling off the table in the current "fiscal cliff" negotiations is, in one sense, a welcome development. If the Senate agrees, we will temporarily be spared the sort of embarrassing brinkmanship that accompanied the last increase, in August 2011. But a year from now, we will likely be back in the same place, where the debt ceiling is being held hostage by people who have no qualms about using the good credit of the United States as a negotiating ploy. We would suggest that, rather than just waiting a year to have this fight, the best approach is simply to abolish the debt ceiling. It is an anachronism that causes more harm than good.

  3. Taxing the rich will solve 7 percent of the problem

    The reality is that the federal government is borrowing $3.3 billion a day, and President Barack Obama wants to fix it with taxing the rich, which will solve about 7 percent ($224 million per day) of the problem. Of course, the rich should pay more, but...

  5. We all must be part of the fiscal cliff solution

    I am a military veteran, a local legislator and the CEO of a company that works with the Department of Defense. I deeply understand the virtue of sacrifice, the benefit of a hard-won compromise and the dire situation that our national debt and the "fiscal cliff" present to our economy and to our national security.

  7. On fiscal cliff, Van Hollen only throws stones

    I find Rep. Chris Van Hollen's comments very ironic about Rep. John Boehner wanting to delay on the fiscal cliff until he is re-elected Speaker of the House ("Conservatives battle Obama," Dec. 13). Isn't this the same Rep. Van Hollen, the super-...

  9. Republicans won't be the only ones blamed if we go over the fiscal cliff

    We are accustomed to the opprobrium columnist Thomas Schaller heaps on all things Republican. However, his most recent rant on who's to blame for the fiscal cliff deserves further reflection ("Crisis they created catches up with Republicans," Dec. 12)....

  11. A Washington poker game with $16 trillion in the pot

    Every kid knows that falling off a cliff is never good, but what about a "fiscal cliff" — how would that feel?
    Every kid knows that falling off a cliff is never good, but what about a "fiscal cliff" — how would that feel? Americans may indeed find out, if Congress is unable to pass a budget plan prior to Jan. 1. So, what's at stake if such an event occurs?...

  19. Boehner's version of compromise: You give 100 percent, he gives nothing

    It appears to me that Speaker John Boehner and the House Republicans are determined to drive us off the so-called fiscal cliff at the end of the year, and they are positioning the party to blame President Barack Obama for it. The speaker keeps repeating...

  21. Grover Norquist: Republican ayatollah

    Ayatollahs seem to just appoint themselves and then start enforcing their own brand of orthodoxy. Grover Norquist has been doing that in the Republican Party for years.
