House Passes Clean Debt Ceiling 221-201 With Vast Majority Of Republicans Voting Against

The clean debt ceiling bill has just passed the House where it got the required majority in a 221 to 201 final vote, with just 28 Republicans voting Yea (and 199 voting Nay) which means that with a Senate passage assured, the US can now spend away until March 15, 2015. The final breakdown:

GOP: Yea - 28; Nay -199
DEM: Yea - 193; Nay -2
Total: Yea - 221; Nay - 201

And one for the history books:

Considering that the vast majority of Republicans voted against John Boehner's latest "plan" to do the Democrats' work for them, and pass a clean debt ceiling, perhaps it is time to look for a speaker who represents the interests of more than just a tiny fraction of the party... and the Democrats of course.

“I’m grateful to the speaker and the Republican leadership for giving this House this opportunity to act in a way that is consistent with the constitution,” said Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., speaking in the chamber in advance of the vote. “I thank my Democratic colleagues for never wavering from this position and standing firm on behalf of all Americans.”

We will post the final vote roll call once it is released.

from that I'm gonna assume she had no issue with acting unconstitutionally if need be?

I wouldn't stand wit that bitch even if we agreed on something.

It means there is no debt limit, they can borrow as much as they want so they don't have to keep revisiting the issue every few months.

I head one democrat say that this bill was great because it "allows us to pay our bills". WTF, how does going into more debt equate to paying off your bills? The doublespeak gives me a headache.

so, now they have no budget and no ceiling? they can just borrow whatever they want for forever? this seems like it could be bad.

Until March 2015. Then they'll revisit the issue again, say to themselves, yep we need more borrowing, more money, and it's been working great without a cap for the last year, so let's just keep doing this.
