I just stumbled upon some fresh snark from The Gormogons:
“Democrats are the drunks of the debt ceiling debate. Republicans are the friends trying to take away the keys to their car.”
It gets better:
D: “If you’re too bogus to lend me a couple trillion, China will. I’m totally driving over there to get my money, so I can get me some more PBR, dude! Anyway, no worries. China will never make me pay that money back.”
R: “Gimme those keys, there’s no way you’re in any condition to borrow more money from that loan shark China, much less drive there.”
Good stuff; you should read it in it’s entirety!
