I assume that some think that the American people are gullible, but this is not a coincidence or happenstance. We've got a Republican majority that took us from trillions in surplus to trillions in deficit, added a $7 trillion prescription drug plan, unfunded wars, and then refused any additional revenue. In choking off our country's ability to pay its debt, now they want to walk us towards default. This is a special place in the shadows of the history books for a group of people who in order to gain power are willing to sacrifice America's leadership in this world.
