Yeah it was almost a warning as to where the GOP was headed when they started the "Greece/USA" comparisons about a year ago... like a self-fulfilling  prophecy.. After all the 'waaaaaaaa' about how Greece defaulted on it's debts and has spiralled out of control because of it, a year ago, you'd think those same people would be eager to pass a clean debt-celing raise.. since they know what this country is in for..

but nope..

like Bohener said last night... This evil president wants to raise $400Billion a year in taxes on the wealthiest in this country over the next 10 years.. to offset the Trillion dollars in spending cuts and $700Billion in medicaid/medicare/SS cuts Obama gave them..

well, we can't have Gates/Buffet/Oprah/Shell/Exxon/Koch getting their tax-loop-holes closed at the rate of $40Billion a year now can we? The audacity!
