The United States suffered the first downgrade to its credit rating in history when Standard & Poor's reduced the nation's rating from AAA to AA+ last August.

Downgraded again???

We obviously haven't spent enough money on a fix for our credit rating.

We need a spending program and we need it now!!!

What do we pay these people in Washington for, for crying out loud?

If it isn’t, and I mean not just once, but multiple times in the near future, then there is something vastly fraudulent about these ratings.

We are talking about rapidly escalating debt at an already historically unprecedented level, supposedly supported by a dwindling base of private sector, productive taxpayers who are themselves under siege by an openly Communist Administration.

Armed with a GAO report (Highlights, Acrobat PDF) on duplicative spending, Coburn couldn't get Hooligan Harry Reid and his Hoodlums to agree to cut even $10 billion of it back in March. It was voted down 52-46.
