Monday Must Read

8/10/2009:

The Wall Street Journal ran an article about Treasury Secretary Geithner asking Congress to raise U.S. debt limit. This is is exactly what the democrats are hoping for a carte blanche to borrow money. I don't know what is worse that we will likely reach the limit of $12.1 trillion by this fall or that Congress will probably raise it.

At least one democratic Senator is open reason! Fox News is reporting that the number 2 democrat in the Senate is open to health care reform without a public health care option. At least maybe they will pass a bill that isn't a death sentence for the federal budget - even if it isn't perfect.
