Mitch McConnell | time for Washington Take The Hit - not the Taxpayers

A little later today, I’ll sit down with President Obama to discuss his request to raise the nation’s debt ceiling. And when I do, I intend make a request of my own: I intend to ask the President what he’s prepared to do, outside of raising taxes, about the massive deficits and debt that have accumulated on his watch.

“I will tell him what Republicans are looking for in this debate: to cut spending now, cap runaway spending in the future, save our entitlements from bankruptcy, and to get our economy moving."
