S&P Downgrades US Credit Rating From AAA

longde says...

If you read the report, the debt situation was part of it. It should be addressed. But the major indisputable catalyst for the downgrade was the wholely irresponsible use of default as a political weapon. And having a powerful faction of the House actually want a default to happen. That is the sign of a banana republic.

I said above that ability to pay is a major factor in a credit rating. We had several teabag and republican house members and presidential candidates loudly yell that we shouldn't even be willing to pay our debt, even if we were able. Almost every proposal was rejected by the house faction, many of whom apparently pledged not to raise taxes or even raise the debt ceiling. WTF? Finally we have people who didn't want to raise the ceiling because the default would be a "loss" for Obama. I think every one of these reasons is irrational.

If I didn't think they were retarded, I would call their actions treasonous. They want to see the president fail so badly, they are willing to wreck my money (401k, buying power, etc) to do it. Well, mission accomplished, guys.

Obama is the president, but budgets and the (stupid but encoded) debt ceiling vote must come out of the House.

Bottom line: If the republicans really want to reduce the debt, they should pass an appropriate budget next time. Don't default (or even threaten to default) on our existing obligations!

>> ^quantumushroom:
Now I could be wrong, but as I understand it, FOUR trillion in cuts was required to keep the ratings degradation at bay--not to fix anything, just to keep it from happening right away.
Well, the Right failed.
TWO trillion in cuts later, the socialists, who are still the majority party, allowed this farce to proceed. So how is the Right "victorious" by failing to reach even a bare minimum in cuts? If anything, the Righties are idiots for allowing themselves to be lumped in with the Hawaiian Dunce & Friends, who spent 3 trillion in 3 years to no effect.
No, I really don't want to believe Odumbo is this sinister or ignorant, but what choice do I have? If he's dumb he should just say so and let smarter people decide what to do.
The markets will sh1t the bed on his watch tomorrow. At least he will have sealed his fate for 2012. Too bad the rest of us get to sink with him.
>> ^lampishthing:
Let me get this straight... Events of the past week:
Republicans get their way with the debt ceiling negotiations
Immediately following this S&P downgrades the US's credit rating
You claim it's the "liberals'" fault?
Action-reaction, man. The economists at S&P see the result of the debt ceiling talks as a bad plan and thus they drop the credit rating. If the democrats' policies had been followed this wouldn't have happened.>> ^bobknight33:
They all should have listen to the Tea Party.
The Liberals and RHINOs got what they wanted now we are in a bigger mess.
You cant spend your way out of debt. Fools



S&P Downgrades US Credit Rating From AAA

Once you realize the the Kenyaneqsue Hawaiian and the rest of the lenninist vermin in power want America crippled, this makes perfect sense.
Since Day One of his regime, His Earness has been overclocking spending for a reason: to put America 'in its place'. Buying the loyalty of indolent, ignorant, class envying parasites is just lagniappe.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, ODUMBO!


Oh pullease! Do you really believe that? Seriously? Meh.

Domino's - Shit Just Got Real

dag says...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I still think it might be financed by Domino's. It's deep, deep, viral PSYOPS shit, that rebrands the company as food for rebels. Of course Corporate would never own up to it - but hey, it gets people on places like VideoSift, (where the cool kids hang out) to talk about Domino's. Mission accomplished.

You know, I could really go for a shitty pizza about now.

We're ban happy on the Sift and it sucks (Blog Entry by blankfist)

bareboards2 says...

I really enjoyed the name calling example you found that I made, blankfist.

The thing is, I didn't call you names. I described your behavior and your thinking process. You are illogical. You are irrational. And you are a bully. I don't have to find examples, the evidence is everywhere.

The very next line I wrote was that I was a bit of a bully, too. Because I am. Just like you are.

Here's another descriptor, blanky -- you cherry pick words. Someone will write a long, logical, and rational comment, and you cherry pick one little phrase and work it like a bulldog. Grr, grr, grr, rassling it into submission. Pick any comment stream and I guarantee you I will find at least one example of this, if you were involved for any length of time. Including this blog.

....How long did you have to search to find some examples of me losing my temper? There aren't many, are there? (FYI -- I have lost it, many times, but I manage to delete before sending.)

But honestly -- how did this get to be about me, anyway? I am sick to my stomach at finding myself in the middle of a fracas. Jesus H Fucking Christ on a stick. I ask a question and UsesP characterizes it as "demanding answers". What the fuck?

Clearly, there is something about my personality that is offputting to UP and blankie. Fine. Ignore me, for gods sake. Oh, I know! GROW THICKER SKIN. Toughen up, guys!

This blog is about dealing with the bans, right? Why were there bans? Why so many? Something isn't working right with all these bans, so what do we do to fix it? Isn't it logical and rational to try to avoid bans in the future? How do we do that? (Oh look, a bunch of questions! The horror, the horror!)

But if the point of the blog is to whine about bans and how we are such a great community except for burdturglar (and bareboards2? nah, this isn't about me at all, blanky says so), then HEY mission accomplished! There has been whining! There has been blaming others! Good job all!

If that is the point of the blog, then we are done here, right?

jesus was a buddhist monk-BBC documentary

enoch says...

>> ^xxovercastxx:

Also, sorry enoch but this is a dupe. The original is right there at the bottom of the page in the related videos.
dupeof=http://videosift.com/video/Did-Jesus-Die-BBC-4-Documentary


meh../shrugs.
if someone else sees it that way they are free to dupe.
i thought this was interesting and was unaware of the other video.
the other video is the complete show and the points you make in comparison are valid but technically this is not a duplicate but rather a clip.
my feelings will not be hurt if someone dupes this video nor will i harbor any ill will to anybody who does.
it is a video..a good one...but still a video and i have no emotional attachment to it.
it started a great conversation and it was again seen by many who may have also been unaware of the existence of the other video.
mission accomplished.

In 500 words or less, how would you handle OBL? (Waronterror Talk Post)

dystopianfuturetoday says...

I'd take him out for a beer and just talk things out, man to man. We'd discuss Ghandi and Martin Luther King and the importance of peaceful protest. He is surprisingly receptive. At the other end of the bar, we notice a couple of ladies checking us out. I tell them I'm married, but urge Osama to go for it. He is a bit shy and nervous, but after a couple more drinks, his inhibitions melt away. The next few hours are kind of a blur, but the following morning Bin Laden knocks on my hotel room door. I let him in and he tells me all about his wild evening with the two women. He tells me he's done with religion and violence and that he plans to apologize for all the pain and suffering he's caused. But at that moment, Barack Obama emerges from behind a fern in full ninja regalia and slices Osama bin Laden's head off in one clean stroke.

I drop to my knees and scream towards the heavens. "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Then Obama and I burst into laughter and do some fist bumps and a chest bump. At the same time, we say "Mission Accomplished." "Jinx!", I say, which means Obama has to pick up the check at dinner.

Memebusters: The bin Laden Edition

enoch says...

bill whittle=revisionist and apologist.
george bush may 1st 2003 on the deck of the abraham lincon:
"major combat operations in iraq have ended.in the battle of iraq,the united states and her allies ...have prevailed".
whittle is correct that bush never once says "mission accomplished".do i need to point out the semantics here?

then he goes on to conflate that somehow iraqis ability to vote (while ignoring the massive amount of data concerning fraud,intimidation and outright scandal) is the very thing which inspired epypt,syria and jordan to rise up against their theocratic,oppressive regimes.
this is patently false and the reasons are well documented and not one of them is iraqs ability to vote.

waterboarding was the reason we got positive intell on bin laden?
ok now he is just making stuff up to fit his own premise.there is NO documentation to back that statement up.in fact the intelligence has revealed the exact opposite.

article 3 of the geneva convention CLEARLY states that waterboarding IS considered torture.case closed.end of discussion.

this video is so chock full of disinformation that my head may explode due to the sheer volume.
bill whittles bush-love is well known.
the only satisfaction i get from this video is the fact that bin laden was assasinated under obama and must keep this tool up at night crying into his pillow.
poor poor whittle.
