will be in the sequester debate, not on the debt extension. Obama should absolutely refuse to negotiate on the debt because the failure to make the payments on money already borrowed and spent is the height of irresponsibility and should never be sanctioned. There is no such thing as compromise on fulfilling our national commitments.

When it comes to the sequester debate I hope the president and the congress will finally act like adults and negotiate a compromise which includes tax reform, across the board spending cuts (including defense) and entitlement reform (gradually raising the medicare age to 67, altering the inflation index for SS and perhaps some means testing of both).
