"Are you saying republicans will try to block raising the ceiling?" "Yes, absolutely"

Question asked of the chairman of Republicans abroad in Belgium, on belgian state TV. On edit, the question is five minutes in.

I'm pretty sure DU will enjoy the grilling he received.
Note that this guy self-identified as a tea party supporter. The journalists from the state broadcaster said this whole circus has to do with competing factions in the republican party. He didn't like that much

But, it's good to see that the Belgians have a better take on what's actually going on though.

saying Obama was THE most left senator ever, and stopping just short of calling him a pinko commie.
Clearly not a member of the reality based community.
