Backbone!

Backbone!
So President Obama — perhaps with some backstopping from Democrats in Congress — has his limits. And he seemed genuinely angry. Good.

More and more, I think this will end up with the constitutional option: just saying that the 14th amendment and the debt ceiling are incompatible, and ignoring the limit. Let the GOP go ahead and try to impeach: the whole world knows who’s intransigent here.
