Debt Ceiling Quietly Raised $51 Billion With No Vote

Does the number $16.7 trillion ring a bell? It's the debt ceiling. It's the line in the sand that must not be crossed. And to protect that line we have a Republican Congress. But that line has been crossed and not a peep out of Congress or the major news media. Obama's unelected bureaucrat, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, just unilaterally hiked the national debt of the United States another $51 billion dollars. And how did he do it? Simple. He just did it. No Senate. No Congress. No problem. He simply called it a "standard set of extraordinary measures" that allows him continually raise the debt ceiling at will and borrow our way into oblivion. If there is a single conservative Congressmen left in our Republic, will he please stand up?
