It's fascinating how brainwashed people can be that they can twist around simple English to suit their needs.

The Republicans threatened to hold back raising the debt ceiling unless their extortions were met. That's what S&P was plainly talking about in that quote.

The far right wing of the Republican party is a cancer on this nation.

Here's what S&P said: "The political brinksmanship of recent months highlights what we see as America's governance and policymaking becoming less stable, less effective, and less predictable than what we previously believed. The statutory debt ceiling and the threat of default have become political bargaining chips in the debate over fiscal policy."

The "tea party" fraud hostage takers are directly responsible for this downgrade. The American people will take corrective action to get sanity back in Congress in 2012.

Congratulations to the far right! You're doing a fine job of turning the US into a banana republic, with your debt-ceiling hostage-taking costing us the AAA rating we'd had for over 90 years.

The only good thing about this fiasco is seeing that the right-wing-nuts are also unhappy with it.

If the tea party hostage-takers block this in the House tomorrow, the Republicans are finished in 2012.

It's not a compromise. It's a caving in by the Democrats.

Don't worry, the Democrats will cave in the end. They always do.

"Trap"? That's pretty funny.

The debt ceiling was raised dozens of times by Republicans in the past. Only this time did they decide to hold the country's economy hostage to score political points with the far-right fringe of nutbars.

America is watching, and will remember next year.

If any of you phonies actually understood or cared about what Jesus said, the Republican party wouldn't be the gang of thugs it has turned into today.

"Reid said the Republicans filibustered his bill."

Requiring 60 votes *is* filibustering. A straight vote only requires 50.
