Senator Son-of-a-Mitch McConnell and Robo-Senator Reid-in-the-Wind made a Bipartisan Cave In whereby Zero could raise the National Debt Ceiling twice more ON HIS OWN! Thus “saving” the Nation from closing down. What a media-caused lie that was!
Son-of-a-Mitch was soooooooo scared of the media-nasties that might be hurled at him that he GAVE AWAY the “system of check and balance (read “Control the Pursestrings” ) of Congress!” What a spineless wimp!
If a government loses that much money that rapidly it deserves to be shut down until competent managers can be found to replace the debt-creators, AND begin Impeachment proceedings against the CEO!
I was totally unaware of that provision. I listen to Rush, who’s usually pretty good about informing us of such things. If McConnell really did this, he is a traitor. How sick can these DC pols get?
