The Debt Ceiling Murdoch's media moguls try to portray as the same as the debt ceiling today was some of the primary drives of our current trillion dollar debts surmounting $16 T.

...“We believe that you must make clear that you will never allow our nation’s economy and reputation to be held hostage,” the Democrats wrote. “We believe you must be willing to take any lawful steps to ensure that America does not break its promises and trigger a global economic crisis — without congressional approval, if necessary.”...
In the years of Bush/Cheney there were huge increases in spending for the sake of "We are at war." Al that was under an umbrella of the culture of fear which remains in remnants today. These are the same remnants the current GOP continues to cling to as a political advantage.
The Bush/Cheney years started the drive to move the debt ceiling into unreasonable levels. The attempt by then Senator Barak Obama to end the endless war was sincere.
Today, we are trying to recover our economy after this disastrous administration bringing the USA two wars, an outsourced economy with 'job seekers' left to work in construction provided by inflated home markets whereby citizens were purchasing second and third homes, a construction sector powered by Congressional spending whereby every bill was a jobs bill, a Bush administration which treated the military as a supplement to our national budget; all of which had a final result of destroying the USA economy including the auto industry.
Those years of raising the debt ceiling never served the American people. Nearly every Wall Street entity had their hand out for a bailout. That is not a successful administration. So, when the then Senator Obama voted against the Debt Ceiling, heck, I would too. Do you suppose he saw this mess coming?
When is Murdoch's tribe of media jerks going to stop seeking a STRATEGY against the best outcomes for the American people that only results in losing elections for Republicans? Never? FINE! Lose the elections then and cause a stalemated government in order to find some kind of media following. Murdoch has an inferior media participation and by damn it we are all tired of it!
I also believe President Obama has to think about the recommendations of a unilateral action to most all the nation's problems. The House is UNABLE to resolve to do what is best for their party; whatever makes the President think he can actually garner the support of the House for any answers to our nation? That doesn't exist. He needs to get over himself and THE HOPE for a unified political base while marginalizing extremists. Be a dictator for God's sake.
