Democrat Congressman thinks the debt limit should be unlimited

If Democrat Jerrold Nadler has his way, we won’t have any of those nasty partisan fights about the debt limit in the future.

If Democrat Jerrold Nadler has his way, we won’t have any of those nasty partisan fights about the debt limit in the future. Because he’s busy writing a bill that will solve the problem by simply doing away with the debt limit.

Voila! Spend as much as you want, President Obama.

Looks like Rep. Nadler also has an unlimited line of credit at the buffet line

The Hill has the details:

Calling the debt limit “truly arbitrary” while blasting Republicans for playing a “dangerous game of chicken” with it, the liberal congressman said Wednesday he was drafting a bill to eliminate it.

“Let us abolish the debt ceiling, which has become a serious threat to our economic future and a pawn for Republicans intent on holding the economy hostage to impose their own extreme agenda,” he said in a statement.

Nadler also set his sights on credit-rating agency Standard & Poor’s, which last Friday issued the first ever downgrade of the nation’s once-sterling credit rating, setting off a tumultuous few days for financial markets.

No debt limit. It’s like having an open bar at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting.

Rant ‘til you can’t: Democrat Congressman accuses Obama of “becoming an absolute monarch”

Rep Jerrold Nadler, whose name is followed by D-NY, sounds more like a R-AL in this clip. He is not happy with President Obama’s excellent Libyan adventure. Not happy at all.

Rep Jerrold Nadler, whose name is followed by D-NY, sounds more like a R-AL in this clip. He is not happy with President Obama’s excellent Libyan adventure. Not happy at all.

Nadler, a usually reliable liberal voice in the House, blasts the President as very few Democrats are willing to do:

“We have been sliding for 70 years to a situation where Congress has nothing to do with the decision about whether to go to war or not, and the president is becoming an absolute monarch,” he said. “And we must put a stop to that right now, if we don’t want to become an empire instead of a republic … I think that the nation’s credibility, that is to say its promise to go to war as backed by the president, not by the Congress, ought to be damaged … We have to put our foot down and say no. And if foreign countries learn that they cannot depend on American military intervention unless Congress is aboard for the ride, good. That’s a good thing.”

Oh, settle down, Jerry. The United States became a monarchy two-and-a-half years ago. You must have been out of town during the coronation. Didn’t you hear about it? It was in all the papers and most of the TV networks. Especially CNN and MSNBC.
