MEGAN MCARDLE ON THE DEBT CEILING: “I don’t have a problem with Republicans using the opportunity of raising the debt ceiling to demagogue the deficit problem–this is one issue that needs all the passion it can get. And Democrats can hardly complain, since one Senator Barack Obama was doing just that four years ago. However. If Republicans want to reduce the deficit–and they say they do!–then they should find some damn spending cuts to match the gargantuan tax cut they just demanded.”

I can think of some. And so can Nick Gillespie!
