I'm not sure if was on purpose or just a total accident that on Tax Day 2011, I opened up the Drudge Report this morning and the screaming headline in bright red print is:
"S&P MOVES USA OUTLOOK TO NEGATIVE"
Following the story inside, it appears we have been dropped from a 'stable' rating to negative. "saying it believes there's a risk U.S. policymakers may not reach agreement on how to address the country's long-term fiscal pressures. "
I would beg to differ with Standard & Poors.............. every slack jawed, limp wristed, pencil necked economic wonk in the District of Columbia knows 'how' to solve our financial problems... they just lack the cojones or the American spirit and patriotism to do it!!!!
I am reminded of the old one liner about the oil men in Houston who once cried.... "Lord, just give us one more boom, and I promise we won't blow it this time!"
If Kate Smith were still alive, I'd ask her to belt out 'God Bless America', one more time -- but this time as a prayer -- not a patriotic song!
