the real cliff

so i am home yesterday nursing a respiratory infection, and broken ribs, and wisdom teeth extraction and wondering if it could get any worse........watched the "local" news.....nothing there......FBI storms bunker in alabama, hillary running for president, john kerry making sexist jokes about a man running the state dept.(lol he's funny)....naacp says soda ban is racist....ho hum.....not so bad after all

but....like the idiot i am  , i turn the chunnel to the financial staions....fox business, cnbc, etc etc......wow......turns out the President is looking for a way around the automatic spending Cuts that he agreed to 30 days ago........and he's looking to raise taxes becuase we need addittional revenue......oh and for good measure he is suing the S&P over the mortgage backed meltdown of 2008..........2008 ?  yep, that's right.........and this has NOTHING to do with the S&P downgrading US Debt in August 2011? ? .....he must be suing ALL the ratings agaencies right ? ?     nope, just the S&P.........wow , that's weird.

when the  US attorney that had the misfortune of standing before the podium to announce this lawsuit was pressed as to why we werent suing any of the other ratings agencies....he said, and i quote "I am not here to comment on that".................that sound you hear in the background is the entire nation crammed into a little schoolbus going over the grand canyon in sloooooow motion......
