'We all deserve to be tarred and feathered'

April 10, 2011

There are two ways to perceive the budget deal reached by Congress to avoid a government shutdown, according to Texas Rep. Jeb Hensarling.

Acknowledging that members may deserve medals for striking a deal that amount to the "single largest year to year cut in history of the budget," the Republican congressman said there's another way to look at it.

"Relatively to the size of the problem, it's not even a rounding error," Hensarling said on CNN's "State of the Union." "In that case, we probably all deserve to be tarred and feathered."

Asked about the looming vote on raising the debt ceiling, Hensarling said he doesn't want America to "default on its debt," but urged President Barack Obama to begin "cutting up the credit cards."
