This story is a misreading of the bill (as I read it). What the bill says is that the debt ceiling is increased through Feb. 7. Any time between now and Feb. 7, Congress could pass a law that ends the suspension of the debt ceiling before Feb. 7 - so, for instance, if Obama decided to just go ahead and try to issue ten trillion dollars of new debt between now and February, Congress could put the brakes on that. The bill says nothing about what happens after Feb. 7.

So, you would be happy if Obama decided to issue 10T in new debt? The odds are near zero that Congress would get 2/3rds to override his veto.

You seem quite excited about Obama having this power?

Do you not understand the utter evil of shifting this power (to issue new debt) to the President?

I guess your Pals at the DUmp are excited.

This provision is pure evil and anyone who believes it is no big deal is either an idiot or evil themselves.
