1. They have passed a bill that raises the debt ceiling. The majority of the American people are in favor of that.
2. They have passed a bill that cuts spending. The majority of the American people are in favor of that.
3. They have passed a bill that calls for a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution. The majority of the American people are in favor of that.
And, beyond simple majority assent, all three of the above items are inarguably the right thing to do.
Now. Do they stand their ground?
And will the Senate Democrats actually stand theirs? Will they dare to vote against a bill that does everything they've "asked" for?
And will Obama actually run his "bluff" and veto a bill that does everything he's "asked" for -- simply because it mandates a balanced budget amendment?
Who's on the high ground here, people?
Will they defend it?
We're about to find out...
Tune in next week...
One problem with the Balanced Budget amendment: could make it “constitutional” for Congress to raise tax rates to World War II levels (94% in some cases).
Too bad the party-controlled media refuses to provide details of the Republican plan.
