Why aren't Democrats and the media calling out GOP hypocrisy over raising the debt ceiling?
This should be s textbook example of how when there is a Democratic president (especially an African American one), they scream about deficits and threaten to shut down the government. Now, McConnell can casually say there is ZERO chance it won't be raised and nobody says a word. It's just like how with a straight face she said Democrats better not "obstruct" anything. OMFG!!!!!!!!! Tjis makes me crazy!

4. Agreed. Highlighting this hypocrisy point only rallies ignorant public sentiment against raising it.
