Top Dems urging Obama to raise debt ceiling all voted against increase in ’06

“On Friday the Democratic leadership of the Senate — Majority Leader Harry Reid, Assistant Majority Leader Richard Durbin, Conference Chair Charles Schumer, and Conference Secretary Patty Murray —wrote to President Obama urging him to unilaterally raise the debt ceiling in the event that Republicans either block such an increase or attempt to pass one ‘as part of unbalanced or unreasonable legislation.’  Put aside the picture of leading lawmakers, usually so jealous of their constitutional prerogatives, asking the president to ignore Congress.  Every one of the letter’s signers voted against raising the nation’s debt ceiling just seven years ago.”
