Could sanity return and congress just vote to raise the ceiling without all the made up baloney that's been attached?

Please?

6. Not really excited about any of the plans put forward
Does anyone see any of these plans to cut cut cut during an economic crises. That means layoffs. And cuts to entitlements. How are any of these a victory for liberals or the bottom 99% ?

2. Absolutely right.
The Republicans are using this to ram through, or try to, all sorts of things they want.

And they started with the destruction of the Presidency of Barack Obama.

There is no way sanity can return as long as they are trying to do that.
