I have a very bad feeling about the current standoff on the debt ceiling. I'm wondering if the Republicans aren't holding out for some major, last-second concessions to keep it all from going over the brink.
Stinks of a bit of blackmail to me.
Besides, I'm sick of politicians whose only concern, it seems, is to get elected and then stay in office --- while at the same time doing as much sabotage as possible to "make the other guy look bad," or increase the "misery index," so as to ensure their own election. All without giving one rat's ass about actually governing or working on all the REAL problems that are out there --- their only concern is getting in power and staying in power, and making the other guy look as bad as possible so that they'll get in power and stay in power.
Has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with solving anything. It's unmitigated BULLSHIT, and they don't even care if they destroy everyone else to do it. They're a shrill, petty, rigid buncha babies treating this nation's business like schoolyard baby games.
RAT FUCKING BASTARDS.
