tnlib: I have thought long and hard about a response. I am neither a “TeaLeftie” nor an Obama-basher. Yes, I supported Hillary, but I voted for Obama. I have written thousands of words either prasising or defending the president.

Obama and the Democrats didn’t so much “cave” as opnn a Pandora’s box. What the Republicans did was a form of extortion which worked.

After the last-minute deal Friday night, The New York Times reports today about the upcoming partisan debate on raising the debt ceiling. Since raising ideological issues worked so well for the Republicans, here’s what they plan for that showdown:

“Republicans have also signaled that they will again demand fundamental changes in policy on health care, the environment, abortion rights and more, as the price of their support for raising the debt ceiling.”

They have picked a few “hot button” issues to develop a strategy intened to bring Obama and Senate Democrats to their knees, and we ain’t seen nothing yet.
