intransigent fecklessness...

This behavior has been notable in most all people involved, especially the newest members of congress making the rounds in DC and New York...

My question is this, why doesn't the "media" get off their asses and take a trip to cities across the country and show what will happen if the default actually occurs.

Show the suffering that all, well most all Americans, will face when the government slowly but surely shuts down.

This is insane, really, the same people who got us too this impasse, whether on purpose of just through a stunning lack of imagination, are telling us how to get out of this mess...

And no one says anything that isn't in the script that is so predictable as to illicit yawns from the country.

what if Dan Rather had decided to cover the war in Vietnam by interviewing only the people in DC.

This is bat-shit crazy.



Sorty for the edits... I just woke up after a particularly brutal night for me... Forgive me letting my anger outpace my typing and thought process...

I am disgusted with this whole mess...

The media, the politicians and the people for just sitting on our asses waiting to be talked too,
