It seems incredible that the Democrats can go through 8 years of the Bush presidency, adding rider after rider to debt ceiling bills, and now claim that President Obama deserves a "clean" debt increase.I think Mitch McConnell should use the very same language Harry Reid used on Bush at every press conference. Challenge the media why was it OK for the Dims to cause a default, if Bush wanted a clean bill.
But that's the reality. And since no one is going to remind the American people that previous Democratic congresses routinely used the debt limit increase to advance policy goals, it seems probable that all the pressure to play ball with the White House will fall on Republicans.
Go Alinsky on them and make them live by their own rules.
