Granting Obama that power is a million times worse that voting to increase the debt limit themselves. Obama has too many powers and if you grant that power to him even on a temporary basis, that will set a really really really really bad precedent.
McConnell is worse than a blithering idiot. He is a tool of the socialists. For even considering this fool hardy idea, he needs to be removed as Minority Leader.
McConnell was attempting with this blurb today to recover from yesterday in terms of PR....not in terms of reality.
To give the president the authority to raise the debt ceiling is raising the debt ceiling. So, is McConnell saying that the debt ceiling will get no votes from pubbies the same as saying don’t vote for my idea to give that authority to the President?
In reality, yes, but McConnell PR-land, it is not.
He is another who doesn’t give one whit for the Constitution. He just wants his slow-socialism club in charge and not the other fast-socialism club.
They think we’re idiots. They’re wrong.
They think we’re powerless. They’re right....unless we apply the declaration of independence.
