re: #677 blueraven

If I were POTUS, I would probably take it. I don’t think the GOP will risk this again in 6 weeks and will quietly pass a longer debt limit increase at that time.

No, because it still amounts to rewarding extortion and would have the exact opposite effect, convincing the teabags that if they only hold out a little longer, they’ll win. Never, EVER underestimate the GOP’s ability to engage in stupid, dangerous risks.
