Fox News contributor Kirsten Powers and guest Tony Sayegh sparred over the past and future of the debt ceiling on Fox News Monday morning, with Sayegh and host Martha MacCallum arguing that the threat of default was the perfect spur for President Barack Obama and Congress to negotiate new spending practices, and Powers arguing that budget concessions had already been made and that the Republicans were negotiating in bad faith.

During an America's Newsroom political panel on Fox today, liberal contributor Kirsten Powers and her conservative colleague Tony Sayegh got into a pretty tense argument over President Obama's fiscal reforms and whether he can bring together both parties for a new plan. Towards the end of the discussion, Sayegh suggested that Obama has yet to fully endorse a reform plan to avoid the so-called "fiscal cliff," which elicited a loud sigh from Powers, who clearly objected to such a characterization.
