MSM spinning the S&P downgrade as a result of
poor management and the lack of cuts.

I've now watched three of the main news out lets here in So. Cal, and each one has failed to mention anything about S&P's clear statement on the Republican obstruction to governance or their radical obsession w/ choking revenue by blocking tax hikes on the rich.

It's damn near treasonous. :evilfrown:

1. The only thing anyone needs to say is
S&P also gave the substandard mortgage securities a AAA rating.

3. After Operation Shocking and Awful, anyone who relies on the
MSM as a source for anything other than entertainment mixed with weather reporting is truly a few fries short of a Happy Meal.

4. Wolfe Blitzer and co were all over this last night.
They said S&P explicitly blamed the Republicans for the downgrade, then showed clips of all of the Repub. presidential candidates blaming the problem on Obama. They then said that obviously, the Republicans didn't get it. I almost fell off my chair!
