The Latest in Debt Crisis "News"

As far as I can tell, this is the latest "news" on the talks in Washington on dealing with America's debt "crisis"...

Congress Continues Debate Over Whether Or Not Nation Should Be Economically Ruined 

The above is an article from The Onion, one of the best "news" sites on the web because they don't take the "news" all that seriously. And because of that attitude, they are actually more perceptive than the mainstream press and actually more accurate in their portrayal of the "news".

Personally the debt "crisis" is a joke. The Republicans, who say that government spending must get under control "right now" or doom will happen, were perfectly happy 8 months ago to give away a $4 trillion tax break to billionaires and millionaires. Note: a tax break = add to the deficit. If you don't collect taxes, then your spending will exceed your revenue. But the Republicans haven't figured that out. All they know is that "government is the problem", "deregulate, deregulate, deregulate", what the world needs now is more tax breaks for the rich, and America will implode tomorrow if Obama doesn't agree to spending cuts immediately!
