Let me head off Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Shirley Jackson Lee or any of the other usual suspects that are routinely dispatched like clockwork by the Democrat Party to make this ridiculous claim.
I’m joking here!
The reason the U.S. was downgraded was because of the amount of our national debt, 16 trillion and climbing.
Both Republicans and Democrats came up with the stupid idea that our debt ceiling should be increased as a matter of course. In addition to this, they agreed on a bogus spending cut that is tantamount to throwing a Dixie cup of water on the fire that consumed half of Chicago in 1871.
So they solved nothing!
Even with this spending cut agreement, the national debt will continue to grow 1.5 trillion a year.
However, President Obama and the Democrats bear the biggest responsibility because it’s their outrageous spending: ObamaCare, Stimulus, Cash for Clunkers, free cell phones for the poor, extending unemployment to 99 weeks, and a host of other free giveaways to re-distribute our wealth that has America on the course of becoming Greece.
It’s Obama’s “only government” can solve our problems mentality that has this country in quicksand!
Like EF Hutton used to say, “Obama earned the downgrade!”
