I am sure McConnel has not discussed this with his boss Harry Ried. his boss will require a clean bill and nothing else. That is the new standard for a Republican lead Senate.
Someone needs to ask McConnell: “Is there any limit to the amount of debt you are willing to saddle America with? If yes, the what’s the number and how did you arrive at it?”
McConnell has ZERO credibility. I would not believe one word he has to say.
Quote from senator thad cochran (r) Mississippi “my job in the Senate is to fund government”
The DHS funding has given us the example on how it will be done in both houses.
I wish I could raise my debt limit without any consequences.

Yes at this point its time to stop with the daily heart attacks over the inaction by our new GOP majority. They are not going to do anything or they would already be doing it. I’m pretty much just tuning it out.
I’m to a point I don’t really care who wins the GOP nomination for President. Unless its Ted Cruz or somebody really flamboyant like Trump we are going to lose in 2016 anyway. Scott Walker, Jeb Bush, etc do not have the charismatic personalities to win over enough independents to win. IMO we are likely to also lose control of the Senate in 2016 also. They will squander their majority as they already are and tick off the republican voters to the point that they will just sit home in 2016.
100 percent useless.
PING!
Republicans will raise the government’s borrowing limit without threatening a default, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell guaranteed Sunday, placating the markets but potentially surrendering the party’s leverage...
...
What party would that be?
