With Obama in office, why vote to raise the deficit cap?

Obama vowed to not vote for a policy if it’s not at least deficit neutral.

If he is going to veto anything that raises the deficit, why worry about the cap?

 

 

Because they've already passed things that aren't deficit nuetral?  I'm pretty sure anyway.

Also, we're promising a bunch of money to copenhagen for no reason.

To the tune of 100 billion a year.  I don't see the government cutting 100 billion out of government to cover it.
