You should post this again (sort of like how Obama did on Twitter) so there can be more exposure. So many commies outside the US like to tilt our polls.

A poll like this is a symptom of, and a symbol of, what’s wrong with our politics and news reporting.

A question such as this is trying to assess blame for a problem. It does not allow for discussion of who is trying to solve the problem, or what the potential solutions to the problem are. It doesn’t even identify what the core issue is.

The Tea Party Republicans are trying to solve a much larger problem than just the problem of us hitting the debt ceiling. The MSM is blaming them for obstructionism. The MSM, in their tendency to over-simplify things and assess blame, is not reporting on the bigger picture. Just because we have routinely raised the debt ceiling in the past is being used as justification to do it now, and damn the consequences. And that’s not right, in my opinion.
