All Congressmen and Senators take an oath of office, to "preserve, protect, and defend" the Constitution of the United States.

The Constitution, in its 14th Amendment, says that the public debt of the United States cannot be denied.

So voting to default -- failing to raise the debt ceiling -- is by definition UnConstitutional. It follows then that each and every Congressman that votes to send the country into default is in violation of his/her oath of office and should be removed forthwith.
