Wrong. Boner didn’t have the votes for passing till he threw in the BBA, so it’s not quite accurate to say nearly everyone was on board with a debt ceiling raise up front. I have no idea how many were on board up front, neither do you. A good percentage yes, but far less than ‘almost everyone’ I’d imagine. Boner did a great deal of wrangling to get the votes.

Wrong. “Cut, Cap, and Balance” would have raised the debt ceiling by $2.4 TRILLION. So, you’re leaving out critically important parts of the accurate history of what just went down.
