Republicans Sell out to The Democrats on Debt Bill
If you think the two party system gives you a choice when increasing the national debt then you better think again! If they change the rules in the middle of the game than you are cheating we the people! Both parties own this national debt and your vote does not count anymore.
It's all smoke and mirrors for now on and a fool's journey to oblivion, as with all power structures invented by mankind throughout History.

Democrats own the increase after 14 Republicans joined every Democrat in the Senate to allow a one-time simple majority vote to lift the debt ceiling without the 60 votes typically required to break a filibuster.

Republicans sell out (period - end of statement)
Possible title correction?
And they think the American will believe.. just this one time offer
it will never stop easy credit no terms
This was a REAL expensive campaign tactic for next years midterms. The Repubs can now point at all of the increased debt and say they didn't vote for it. They weren't going to shut down the govt. and some repubs would have had to vote to raise the limit to get the 60 votes. This way they think they can be held blameless for driving the country further into bankruptcy. The best thing I can say about the republicans is that they are the lesser of two evils, and that is sad. Bob
Well watch the free welfare checks for having Kids under your roof at 300.00 a month to increase and free childcare with free state food cards with medical coverage for all the family. Free Housing will be the next cry for massive funding too! The taxes she will pay in will be one tenth of what she's gets in benefits as a U.S. citizen. The majority of them will never get off the welfare carousel, either.
Plus free illegal immigration releases to help raise The Democrat Party voting rights for them. The Great Society is back in full force, folks. Only problem is The USA is broke, unlike in 1964.
Of course, no Father is around to help out while he finds another sexual partner at the local bar/festival hoot owl joint.
