re: #46 watching you tiny alien kittens are

Uhh, where in that story does it actually quote or link to Obama actually asking for this? I seem to remember that it was Mitch McConnell who introduced this to the Senate last week and then had to filibuster his own proposal to stop it after the Dems looked like they would called his bluff.

What I don’t remember is Obama ever saying that he wanted this authority in the first place.

Geithner asked for it. Geithner presumably speaks for the president. Any search on the phrase “Geithner debt limit infinite” will get you plenty of links.
