Maybe ruining the nation's credit rating is precisely the point. The whole plan may be to wreck the economy while a Dem is in charge, so they can take control of the White House and Congress, and blame the resulting disaster on the Liberals.
After all, the only plan they seem to have is to cut spending and lower taxes. Jobs and the economy will miraculously improve if they only can get their way. They can then dismantle all social programs and the safety net, vote themselves a business-friendly and tax-free environment, and not even have to worry about paying off our international creditors. After all, businesses go Chapter 11 all the time--fire their employees, screw their creditors, sell off their assets and leave their investors holding the bag. Only upper management makes out. Why not do it to a whole country?
It's not a stupid plan. It's a very clever, long-term one. I think they've been implementing it since the Reagan Administration, and they've been planning it a lot longer than that.
