Wingnut debt ceiling demands

GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich, former Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin and Sen. Marco Rubio want some rather unrelated demands met before Congress raises the debt ceiling.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- A lot of politicians are weighing in with demands before they'll support raising the debt ceiling. Most of their conditions are related to debt, such as put in place a debt reduction plan or cut spending.

But some conditions can't even claim to be third cousins once removed. Punish union defenders. Drill, baby drill. Revolutionize federal regulation.

Of course, it's not as if totally unrelated measures never make it into formal legislation.

Rebellious article writer? Sub-editor? Or has CNN finally decided to be straight-forward?
