Do you suppose it occurs to Republican voters that the battle going on over the debt ceiling was manufactured by their Republican representatives in congress? They’re the ones that put the cost of wars and tax breaks for their rich donors in a budget that couldn’t afford it. That the battle going on is about their Republican representatives demanding the cost of their spending be placed on the poor, the sick, the elderly, and the people in our nation least likely to be able to afford it? If we stopped bombing the appointed enemies of the corporate oil barons, and reducing their taxes to less than zero it wouldn’t be necessary to fight this fight every time there’s a Democrat in the White House trying to balance our budget.
