Been saying for months Obama is going to do this and Cornyn’s comment makes it cleared to me the GOP is terrified he will do it. The GOP just blinked with this comment. *sigh*
Another day, another shred taken from the Constitution.
Don't misunderstand me. Ignoring the debt limit would be political suicide for the Democrats, and the Republicans know this. Polls show a majority don't want the debt limit raised at least without huge spending cuts.
If the dems pull this stunt, they will do it by themselves, which is why they would rather get the GOP to agree to raise the debt limit.
If the Dems do ignore the limit, Cornyn wants to make sure the blame is all theirs.
