From Gallup:
By a 47% to 19% margin, Americans say they would want their member of Congress to vote against raising the U.S. debt ceiling, while 34% don’t know enough to say. Republicans oppose raising the debt ceiling by 70% to 8% and independents by 46% to 15%. Democrats favor raising the ceiling by 33% to 26%.
My goodness, that is an astounding result. The American people have figured it out – raising the debt ceiling has nothing to do with whether or not the bills will be paid, but only with whether or not liberals will get to spend even more money. There does not need to be an increase in the debt ceiling unless your whole point is to shove America further in to debt. Democrats are trying to sell the notion that the world will come to an end if we don’t go further in debt – but the reality is that what Democrats really want is an endless supply of money to pay off cronies and buy votes.
Fight it out; right here and right now.
