"The dynamic that's created here, for better or for worse - and we think now for better - that has linked these two has focused attention and focused people's minds on the need to do something significant around deficit reduction," Carney said Wednesday.

Here is where the Tea Party deserves some of the credit. If it wasn't for the Tea Party, the ceiling would have been raised and no one would have noticed. It sure seems that a more watchful eye is being focused on both parties by the Tea Party.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America 's debt limit is
a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government can not
pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial
assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless
fiscal policies. Increasing America 's debt weakens us domestically and
internationally. Leadership means that 'the buck stops here.' Instead,
Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our
children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of
leadership. Americans deserve better."
-- Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006
Wow but its ok to do it now and to shift a BIGGER burden onto our grandchildren...........

Cut her some slack, she had to go cash her trust fund check. A person gets busy with those kinds of things about once a month

In an accidental moment of honesty, White House Deputy Press Secretary Dan Pfeiffer today admitted on Twitter that President Obama will likely sign any debt deal Congress sends his way. This revelation came in an exchange with Stephen Gutowski, the blogger known as The College Politico. Gutowski asked Pfeiffer: “Do you see a scenario where the house & senate pass a deal but the President doesn’t sign it?” and Pfeiffer responded: “No, bc only something that has R and D support can pass both bodies”.
