McConnell Offers 'Backup' US Debt Limit Plan

Maybe the republicans can just give the president unlimited power to enact whatever he wants. Then, they can vote it up or down, and he can choose to veto or accept their vote. That way, things can get done and if it works out they can say, "See we took over Congress and it all worked out." And if it doesn't work out they can reply, "It was all that Obama guy!!!"

Cowards.

Don't be ridiculous. The House repubs can't even get their own bills passed!! :lamo

The republicans run the House. The republican leader decides which bills get voted on. The republicans in the House could pass WHATEVER they want, but they're so befuddled, they can't even pass a bill to raise the debt ceiling

I am disappointed most that we have missed the opportunity to cut spending and increase revenues significantly.
