Its interesting that a few House Republicans are the ones acting like spoiled brats insisting on getting their way, even when the country needs a compromise that is fair and reasonable, but you blame President Obama and the Democrats. That's classic Machiavellian, LOL, since, it's really the House of Representatives, "Tea Party", who only makes up about 1/3 of the House, that are pushing and praying for a default that might usher in Armageddon. Perhaps I'm old fashion, but that doesn't sound like fair representation to me.
