Debt Ceiling Deadenders

Rethugs and Teabaggers are wrapping themselves in debt ceiling dynamite prepared to blow up the economy and downgrade the U.S. credit rating, again.

snip:

"But House Republicans have already said they would be looking for a deal to cut a dollar of spending for every dollar increase in the debt ceiling. That sets up a fight with Democrats, who will likely push for a clean extension that does not require spending cuts."

Ahh, the joy of living in Teabagistan.

it's time for the GOP to step up to the plate and pay for their expenditures from 2000-2008. We've given enough.

NO MORE CUTS!!!!!!
