...after fractious negotiations over the debt limit led to the loss of nation’s AAA credit rating on Friday.

That's bull****! Does "The Hill" have any proof to back up this lie or is it just another commie lib allegation?

I watched the S&P guy on Cavuto twice today. He did say that the fact that we came within one day of not solving the current issue factored into their decision but the problem wouldn’t be a problem if Congress had agreed on cutting 4T of spending. He specifically mentioned the Ryan plan, the POTUS referring to 4T in one of his speeches, and I believe Boehner mentioning 4T. Of course, the cuts we eventually were pathetic.

In the end did the GOP just figure the rats were walking into a giant trap they brought on themselves - not to mention the rest of us?
