I think we should mention that the President has now vetoed two debt limit increases. There is not a Member on this floor that has ever voted for a clean debt limit increase. I pause, because is it not sad that they are doing so much political rhetoric, yet all of the debt ceiling increases that have been used over the years have been used over the years to put in the Kemp-Roth, the Gramm-Rudman, the tax increases?
Discussing the President's vetoes of debt limit increases and political rhetoric surrounding them.
