there is a debate to be had about this--what the meaning of the deficit is, what the causes, what the ways forward.
it'd be much easier were obama to get a spine implant and do some basic moves---like stand down on the lunatic (conservative-inspired) "war on terror" and put the outlandish expenditures lavished on its various institutional cancers on the table, and ignore the cretin tea party attempts to draw arbitrary brackets around the whole question of taxes in order in order to divert the debate in a direction that won't make grover norquist mad.
but this "debt ceiling" canard is lunacy. and it's not a debate.
