The stunning revelation that Obama intends to ignore congress if they fail to increase the debt limit as truly amazing. By making that threat, he has given the GOP and some Dems the out they need. Until now it was widely assumed that congress would cave and pass an increase in the debt limit because Obama would handle the purse strings and cut popular programs in order to keep things going. This would allow him to accuse the Republicans of being against the cut programs.
But now with this threat to ignore congress, the Republicans can refuse to increase the debt limit and if Obama ignores the currently established limit, he will be in contempt of congress!!!
This would result in the case going to the Supreme Court and the 14th amendment being held as inapplicable to the Debt Limit?? This is something that no one, not even Democrats want. This would result in the total rejection of Obama in the next election.
Its bad enough that he wants to stay the execution of a rapist/murderer in Texas...apparently because he hates Texas, he sues Arizona over their immigration law, threatens Fremont NE over their immigration law, threatens Texas over their anti groping law, and the list goes on. Now he intends to openly flaunt the constitutions stated separation of power.
