Awww, even MORE democrats wish they could take back their previous debt ceiling votes.

Hoyer joins Obama in calling past vote on debt ceiling 'a mistake' - TheHill.com

Quote:
“I have voted against the debt limit in the past. That was a mistake,” Hoyer (Md.), the second-ranking House Democrat, said in an unprompted admission to reporters on Tuesday.

But the Democrats' own votes against raising that ceiling during George W. Bush’s presidency are coming back to haunt them.
Hasn't even begun to haunt them - just wait.

If Obama had only voted "present" as a Senator in 2006 he would not have to defend his position now.

Spare me the crocodile tears.
