These idiots vote against spending and then take credit when it is approved over their own objections.
With the ballooning debt, there is a need for a serious attitude to the ceiling. The ceiling should engender fiscal discipline. I agree the Republicans by and large are posturing, but at least they are drawing attention to continuing bad practices.
