Like when Obama and every other Dem senator voted against raising the debt ceiling in 2006 when Bush was president?

(The Hill) — Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-Ill.) on Thursday evening said President Obama is being treated “differently” over the debt-ceiling vote than past presidents, and said it is unfair of House Republicans to make it more difficult to raise the ceiling under Obama.

“This president is begin treated differently than other presidents,” Jackson said on the House floor. “No other president has been stook up, shook down, or held hostage as president of the United States over this debt vote. This is fundamentally unfair, Mr. Speaker, to change the rules in the middle of the game.”

Jackson’s comments seemed to echo those of Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas), who strongly implied earlier this month that Republicans are making the vote more difficult because Obama is black.
