According to senator Whitehouse, what McConnell was doing was playing chicken with the dems, and he blinked first.

IMO, why we should NOT lie down easily when the pubs threaten us.

It was so insane, McConnell and the pubs talked about how dangerous it was to not raise the debt limit and then refused to help.

That is how insane the Republicans have become.

How they keep that party together is depressing, as it shows how insane and criminal they are willing to be.
