In Extremis


The United States has lost its AAA bond rating.  Standard and Poors has downgraded the debt of the U.S. one notch to AA+.  See  the MSNBC Article for details.  Our little Timothy Geither and you-know-who have overseen this disgrace to our nation and our flag.  This is something that I would not be proud to have on my resume.  What's next?  The U.S. scrapping its space program (see Sputnik Moment)?  Continued high structural unemployment (see: Reuter's Take)?  The abandonment of our traditioonal allies (see: To the Wolves)?  The dismantling of our energy industry (see Luddite-in-Chief)?  More hope and change?
