Hensarling: It’s ‘Contrary To Our DNA’ To Raise Debt Ceiling — Except Under Bush
GOP Rep. Hensarling: It’s ‘Contrary To Our DNA’ To Raise Debt Ceiling — Except Under Bush


Appearing on Fox News this afternoon to discuss Republicans’ opposition to raising the debt ceiling, House Republican Conference Chairman Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) said it is “contrary to our DNA” to raise the debt ceiling. Watch it:

Hensarling must have changed his DNA in the past few years, as, like 97 of his House GOP colleagues, the potential mutant-congressman has voted for a clean increase of the debt ceiling under President Bush.

3. Oh, I'm sure he does. No reason to believe it's human DNA, though.
