That was your benevolent Lord Zero, high speed. Remember, him and Congress made the decision to spend all that money; not Bush.

Well the poll seems pretty clear. Even though it's unscientific, I don't think it's a big stretch to say that the vast majority of the country thinks it's absurd to raise Congress's debt limit another $1.9 trillion. That's like giving whisky to a whino.

So why are our REPRESENTATIVES even considering this?
