Get off your imaginary soapbox and stop spreading such nonsense.



S&P lost all credibility years ago, at least in the eyes of anyone who pays attention. The traders have essentially tossed them aside and ignored them. Their statement is chock full of subjective rhetoric and painfully short on objective reality. There's a reason for that....

As for the tea-party in congress, despite your nonsensical rants and the obvious deflection of responsibility by the likes of Kerry et al, what kind of fucked-up world do we live in when:

A basis for constitutional, balanced-budgeted government and peaceful foreign policy is fringe crazy talk?

BUT

Nationalizing the auto industry, the economic system, the health care industry, trying to raise taxes in the worst recession in 80 years, and threatening the most powerful country in the middle east with war for no reason is middle-of-the-road normalcy?

Where "There are few other ways that can directly put money into the economy than applying unemployment insurance" (Carney press conference).
Actually there’s another way; just pay people to buy things; or better yet, just pay Walmart directly and have the unemployed go pick up whatever products the government’s decided to buy for them. The Obama administration is now arguing welfare creates jobs, because the welfare payment is spent on people not on welfare. Good economics guys. That wacky and sad talk in the middle of a huge selloff is just jaw dropping. Unemployment creates jobs? Hilarious man.

Wake the fuck up Joel, and smell the BS they (both Dem/GOP) are feeding you.

It's not the tea-party that created this mess, and simply by calling BS when they see it they do not then incur blame.
