I'm sorry, I don't trust ANY of this debt limit stage show. I'm not going to get all tingly over [View All]

3rd hand quotes about Obama going all kick-ass or whatever.

I'm most certainly not going to trust any Republican on anything.

I do not even -- at this point, after all that's come before -- have any trust in giving into "hope" that things are going to turn out okay. On the contrary, I'm quite certain that things will continue to get worse for the ordinary people of this country (and the world, for that matter) whatever the outcome of the Great Debt Ceiling Battle ("Police Action"?)of 2011.

I come by this attitude honestly. I come by it by the realization that DC's Battles are not our battles. Sure, we're effected, we are more likely to be trampled as the Great Beasts of the two Parties scuffle and charge at each other. But let us not mistake the feet that trample us less as evidence of benevolence.
