Ending the Debt Ceiling Absurdity

Let’s hope Obama sticks to his guns on being done with playing debt ceiling games with the Republicans.

The Republican Congress overplayed its hand. It’s time for Democrats to call them on it. The new Congress looks promising on these measures and it’s amusing to see the Republicans scrambling for the first time in forever. Time to slam some filibuster reform through, force Republicans to the wall on raising taxes on the rich, and taking power away from Congress on the debt ceiling if it won’t take reasonable stances.
