    Debt Ceiling Bluff Called By Harry Reid, Leaving Mitch McConnell To Filibuster Himself

    WASHINGTON -- A move to embarrass Democrats backfired on Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell Thursday as the Kentucky Republican proposed a vote on raising the nation's debt ceiling -- then filibustered it when the Democrats tried to take him up on the offer.


    This reminds me of last year when the House democrats tricked the republicans into voting against their own extreme budget proposal

    The republicans knew their alternative to Ryan's budget was too extreme and yet all voted yea on it to look tough, but then the democrats all suddenly started voting present which caused the republicans to change their yeas to nays and vote down their own budget proposal (watch the republicans shriek in rage at the possibility that their own proposal might pass in the C-span clip).

    I'm not pulling my pants down to have to sit and wait for the shrieking in an 11-minute video of C-Span coverage of the House. At what minute marker does the shrieking start?

    Well, I just think it's rather unsporting to start a discussion and then run away from it...immediately after creating it.
