Leaders have to lead..... trzaska2000 Send a noteboard - 06/08/2011 05:18:21 AM
S&P has been warning DC for months that unless significant cuts to our projected debt were accepted, the downgrade would happen. Obama resisted such cuts every step of the way and now has to suffer the consequences.

The buck stops with him.....that's the job he signed up for.

It's not Obama, but the Tea Party Amelia Pond - 06/08/2011 06:16:38 PM 1044 Views

As ever your disinterest in facts seems to be central to your posting. snoopcester - 06/08/2011 11:34:20 AM 1010 Views
Which would be less annoying if so much of Congress didn't suffer from the same delusions. Joel - 06/08/2011 03:48:04 PM 906 Views

S&P specifically cited GOP refusal to raise taxes among their reasons. Joel - 06/08/2011 03:10:22 PM 1083 Views
Of course one could just read the actual S&P report Isaac - 06/08/2011 04:01:07 PM 1065 Views
Sure. Joel - 06/08/2011 04:53:47 PM 1106 Views
Right, ABC new's summary of the report is not the report Isaac - 06/08/2011 07:02:46 PM 1401 Views
Link works, but I'm not sure why you think it refutes snoops assessment or mine. Joel - 06/08/2011 08:35:10 PM 1201 Views
It doesn't refute it, it just isn't this simple distillation you're offering Isaac - 06/08/2011 09:23:33 PM 1001 Views
It's more than half a sentence; I quoted several paragraphs. Joel - 06/08/2011 09:56:31 PM 884 Views
Well yes, after I gave you the report, I think I'm pretty obviously refering to before that Isaac - 06/08/2011 11:02:17 PM 899 Views
Before you and Joel continue on with dragging my name into this snoopcester - 06/08/2011 11:47:00 PM 1004 Views
That's the trouble with a highly partisan environment: Joel - 07/08/2011 01:37:57 AM 1028 Views
Before that I was referring to the paragraphs quoted in the ABC report. Joel - 07/08/2011 01:21:18 AM 1332 Views

"the mix of spending and revenue measures" Joel - 06/08/2011 10:23:06 PM 1035 Views
So you read the statement that they take no posistion as they take the dem position? random thoughts - 07/08/2011 04:51:58 AM 1037 Views
I read a "mix" to be a mix. Joel - 09/08/2011 12:14:35 AM 941 Views
So in other words you just ignore the actaull words and read it say what you want it to say *NM* random thoughts - 09/08/2011 02:07:57 PM 562 Views
A mix of something and nothing is impossible; one thing is one thing, not a mix. Joel - 09/08/2011 04:56:00 PM 1126 Views
Would 99.99% to 0.01% be a mix? random thoughts - 09/08/2011 06:25:08 PM 1205 Views
Yup, but 100% to 0% is not. Joel - 09/08/2011 06:35:13 PM 1025 Views
They should all resign Praziquantel - 06/08/2011 05:47:56 PM 1063 Views

In reality, its Congress (BOTH parties) AND the President who are to blame. MrFarstrider - 08/08/2011 01:59:13 AM 1010 Views
40% is not a small tax increase and a small spending cut Roland00 - 09/08/2011 04:20:28 AM 886 Views
Why are people making a deal about the debt ceiling increase? Nate - 09/08/2011 03:42:13 PM 911 Views
We do have a debt ceiling for a reason random thoughts - 09/08/2011 04:05:59 PM 937 Views
Because, when you get down to it, the debt ceilings very existence was always a political threat. Joel - 09/08/2011 05:02:12 PM 891 Views
Ultimately, I'm forced to agree completely. Joel - 09/08/2011 05:09:19 PM 965 Views
