I disagree (respectfully). This has no chance of passing the senate, but it forces the issue right back onto the democrats. This is smart politics. Maybe the stupid party is not so stupid...

"this has no chance of passing the Senate"

This is like handing a loaded gun to a five year old and saying; "it's OK he doesent know how to remove the safe."

I agree...force the democrats in the Senate to either vote down or never bring it to the floor...show them to be the liars they are when it comes to cutting spending.

I agree with you.

The reality is the debt ceiling will be raised. The rest of the questions are political. And politically the options are Obama takes the heat for the economy in the next election or the Republicans and their candidate does.

This whole thing is about 2012.

BINGO. This is fine. Pass it and send it to Reid and Obama and let them stew in it.

I agree. Raise the limit, name your own cuts and no tax increases. Send it to the Senate and let the Dems own the “default” for non-action.
