Correct. The plan he wants would allow Obama to raise the ceiling this year and next year, but it would also allow Congress to vote against it. However, the vote really would have no merit and not stop the raising of the ceiling, it would simply be a political tactic that the republicans would be using to say, "See we don't approve of this." That way in 2012 they can campaign that they tried everything they could to stop the great black socialist from driving us deeper into debt.
