New GOP debt-limit demands: Ban late-term abortion and approve Keystone pipeline? - The Washington Post
No big surprise that incompetent and impotent, alcoholic, chain-smoking golf pro, Boehner has lost control of his "hell no" faction.
Are we supposed to be impressed that they have decided not to trash the US credit rating even more than they already have?
Thanks to Obama, the debt is below $One Trillion Dollars, we see more jobs every single month, the Dow is sky high and our economy is coming back. If the Rs can, they will stop all of that and put us back into the Bush downward spiral.

The good news: This time around, most GOP lawmakers agree they probably should not block a debt-limit increase, halt Treasury borrowing and let the government default on its obligations. According to GOP aides who attended the meeting, the hell no caucus appears to be radically diminished.

The bad news for President Obama: Republicans will demand some kind of prize for [DOING THEIR JOB] voting to raise the debt limit, preferably some policy that serves to reduce the debt. They say they will not simply roll over again, as they did in January when they voted without much fuss to suspend enforcement of the debt limit through this weekend.
