The more conservatives read Speaker John Boehner’s, R-Ohio, debt hike bill, the more they do not like it. FreedomWorks Legislative Counsel Dean Clancy came out against the bill this morning after concluding it does not “reflect the spirit” of the Cut Cap & Balance Pledge.

Clancy identifies three major objections to the bill: 1) Does not cut spending sufficient to reduce the deficit next year and thereafter; 2) Does not cap federal spending; and 3) Increases the debt ceiling without first passing a strong BBA out of Congress.
