I agree with MF and I don't think either side (Republican or Democrat) is getting it right. I think the group that came closest was the President's bi-partisan committee on the subject (and of course both parties rejected most of their recommendations).
I read this morning that McConnell is suggesting they give Obama some short term authority to raise the ceiling basically as a way to end the stalemate without either side looking bad. Stupid. Obama said he'd prefer to settle on a larger plan and Boner didn't sound thrilled with the idea either but it's out there.
