As Washington Draws Inaugural Crowds, Republicans Leave

I found this interesting tidbit on a Red State blog from Daniel Horowitz:



"We can talk from now until tomorrow about unilaterally passing a good budget in the House, but if we are not going to use one of the points of leverage (debt ceiling/CR) to enforce it, the promise is worthless. Even if conservatives sign onto this deal, it’s about time they force leadership to grow out of their “fear of the dark” with brinkmanship. They must pass the Full Faith and Credit Act, which will force the Treasury to prioritize debt payments in the event that an agreement is not reached, as part of the bill this week."

Funny. How about the Treasury cut off all Federal payments and services to the districts that sent these Republican saboteurs to Washington in the first place? That way the voters who caused this mess pays for it first. That type of prioritizing works for me.
