So the S&P (Standard&Poor) just downgraded America and made the stock
market plummet over fears that the government isn’t taking debt
reduction seriously enough. Now we all know the S&P is a bastion of
ethics and honesty (cough-choked on my gum while typing that line-
cough) so of course their only motive would be rationally and honestly
assessing the stock market (cough-damn I’m going to need the heimlich
if I continue with the sarcasm)! How long before His Hopiness runs
further to the right? I give him about 5 seconds. We should place
bets.
