So I've posted the S&P statement in full, and then reposted a quote of their specific comments relating to the politics of the debt ceiling, and you still pretend that they didn't say what they said. I can't decide whether you are trolling or deliberately lying. I guess there's little difference.

Obama offered $4T in deficit reduction on 90% republican terms, and Boner walked away because he couldn't control the nutcases in own his party. This was a deal any republican up to 2008 would have considered a total victory. A slam dunk finger in your face in the end zone victory celebration. The GOP walked away because the Tea party kooks didn't want a deal under any terms. This was: ok let's cut entitlements and spending by $4T and oh by the way can we please close a few small tax loopholes? It was the mother of all no brainers but the Tea Party freshmen would have no part of it. Why? Because they want to take down the federal government and damn the global economy if it goes down with it.

So cut the bullshit. You guys were offered a deficit reduction deal way slanted in your favor and that met everything the S&P said, but the GOP said no... again. THAT is why the S&P lowered the rating and that is why they said they did it. READ THE FUCKING QUOTE.

But who the hell I am kidding? Your side long ago gave up arguing the issues based differences of opinion on the facts. Now you just make up bullshit and repeat it over until enough people believe it. Your side has no honor and no integrity, and that is why I despise you people.
