No, the "crisis" has been caused by the tea party Republicans not wanting to own up to the consequences of their own actions. They passed an appropriations law that included deficit spending. Now they don't want to raise the debt limit to account for the deficit spending they are responsible for.
 
Everyrone passes appropriations bills. Hell, Obama would pass an appropriation bill with his sister.

It's the people that STOP APPROPRIATONS that count.

The tea party Republicans didn't stop the FY11 appropriations bill; they passed it, including deficit spending. That was a done deal, the ink dry. Now they are too gutless to own up to the consequence of their own action and raise the debt limit to accommodate the additional borrowing included in their appropriations law. One could reasonably conclude these are a bunch of whiny, immature, irresponsible hypocrites these Republicans.

You said none of the Repub or Teabag plans preserved AAA. He pointed out that cut,cap and balance would preserve the AAA rating. You misspoke apparently.


Of course the fact that cut,cap and balance couldn't pass wind is another conversation.

I thought I wrote that the two-tier plans doesn't preserve the rating (ie some cut now + promised cut later). That is one the two plans being discussed currently.

Wow...reallly? And all this time I thought the Tea Party voted against the appropriations bill last April.
