Do you have a better idea, at least in terms of politics, for the GOP? This is the only way to hold Barry's feet to the fire and finally make him show his cards. He blew it today with his threat to withhold SS checks, and putting him in charge of the debt ceiling is the combo punch.
Then you’re a fool. The power to borrow money constitutionally rests with the Congress. They should not take their own responsibility and place it with Obama, who will obviously abuse it. There is no check with this plan. Obama gets his increase unless the congress gets a two-thirds majority to stop it (which would never happen). And then Obama would veto it if it did.
Yes I have a better plan in terms of politics. Let the phony August date pass, just like the phoney May date and force Obama to prioritize spending. If we spend 2.6 trillion this year, there’s no need to borrow any more money.
Dude, this man has been giving military weapons to the Mexican drug cartels. Do you need any more evidence of what kind of cards this man holds ?
