AA+

The Obama Economy has reached a new low. There have been plenty of economic lows over the past fews years, all generated by the catastrophic policies of President Obama and his Democrat wingmen in Congress: the massive expansion of government, unprecedented spending, record-breaking deficits and debt, and socialized medicine. These policies took a shaky economy and turned it into a gasping near-corpse, to the point where 9.1% unemployment and 0.4% GDP growth is "the new normal."

All of these disasters, however, were merely the opening act for the big hurricane that hit us on Friday night: Standard and Poor's downgraded U.S. debt from our previous sterling AAA rating to AA+. An A+ is only great in grade school.

The Left is in freefall (along with the stock market, which sees it too). The Left sees its wealth redistribution ideology collapsing before its eyes, swamped by its own internal contradictions and disastrous consequences. So the Left flails and blames everything and everyone for the downgrade but themselves and their policies. The Tea Party becomes "terrorists." The Republicans become "obstructionists." Blame gets laid on everyone from President Bush to "millionaires and billionaires" to corporate jet owners to ATMs.

They cannot possibly look in the mirror and find the fault within themselves---because to do that would mean the end of liberalism, the end of their very existence, the end of their cottage industry of victimhood and dependency, the end of their calamitous agenda and policies. This they will not abide.

So they continue their lies and their Blame Roulette and their insults to our intelligence. But we know the truth: that the Left has wreaked enormous destruction, that the GOP put forth the ONLY plans to deal with the debt crisis (the 2012 Ryan budget and Cut, Cap and Balance), and that their ideology is now permanently discredited.

Is it the End of Liberalism? I'd like to be that optimistic but I'm not, because there are plenty of left-wingers who are deeply invested in their wealth redistribution ideology to go down without a fierce fight. Witness what's going on tomorrow in Wisconsin: $30 million has poured in to defeat GOP state senators in recall elections. The Left will not go gently into that good night.

And that is why we must stay on the offense. A dying ideology lashes out. Be prepared for the most vicious attacks and underhanded, destructive policies to come. Hold the line, fight back, and never, ever let the conservative guard down. They are fighting. So must we.

Two out of three investors believe politics should be ignored and the credit rating be placed at AAA. The political attack on the rating agencies was predictable, and however that may resolve, the public generally believes Gov't spending is out of control, and there is doubt regarding repayment. So 30% drop in DOW?

Despite trade imbalances, despite unemployment, despite borrowing to hand out free money to foreign countries, despite a total lack of desire to reform the way Washington does business, …. They are bashing on regardless, and blaming the credit agency. That surely is the path of severe corruption, corruption corrupting absolutely.

I always finding that pointing blame at either party does nothing. The problem is simple: Spending is too high and not enough revenue is coming in. Its so easy to point blame at one political party. Everybody is involved. Common sense economics say you need to cut spending, cut subsides, and raise taxes in some areas. But unfortunately, politicans and those who support their parties will stick to their idealogies in order to stay in office....

/////////China Tells US 'Good Old Days' of Borrowing Over

: Saturday, 6 Aug 2011 |

China bluntly criticized the US on Saturday one day after the superpower's credit rating was downgraded, saying the "good old days" of borrowing were over.

Standard & Poor's cut the U.S. long-term credit rating from top-tier AAA by a notch to AA-plus on Friday over concerns about the nation's budget deficits and climbing debt burden.

China -- the United States' biggest creditor -- said Washington only had itself to blame for its plight and called for a new stable global reserve currency.

Dem Talking Point du Jour says it's a 'Teaparty Downgrade'. The UK Telegraph sees it differently.

OBAMARXISM: DOWNGRADED (gringo header)

America’s debt downgrade is a damning indictment
of President Obama’s Big Government disaster
Telegraph [UK], by Nile Gardiner (h/t Luciane.com)

The decision by credit agency Standard and Poor’s to downgrade America’s AAA credit rating for the first time in 70 years is a massive blow to the credibility of the Obama administration, and a damning indictment of its handling of the economy. No doubt the White House will pathetically try to blame the Bush Administration, Republicans in Congress, and of course its favourite target, the Tea Party, for the move by S&P. But without a shadow of a doubt, responsibility for the country’s financial mess and staggering levels of debt lie with the current US president and his administration.

Comments:
Crisply and clearly laid out--another good piece from Nile Gardiner as he flails this "intensely ideological" president and his equally psychologically damaged enablers and hangers-on. That Obama has to force himself to pay for his own 200-guest birthday party solely to prevent photographs that doubtless would be spread everywhere with "Nero fiddling" captions is as despicable as the rest of his misrule.

[gringoman]

PROF. JACOBSON: S&P Drops U.S. Credit Rating to AA+ // Obama and Reid’s Crowning Achievement. “Democrats own the downgrade. They fought Republicans and Tea Party supporters every step of the way, and forced a deal which was insufficient. They played class warfare and race politics against arguments that we needed to drastically change our spending habits.”

But you can bet they’ll blame the Tea Party.

PEAS: TO EAT OR NOT TO EAT

Standard & Poor’s historic downgrade of the U.S. credit rating is an attempt to bring adult oversight to the political squabbling over out-of-control government spending. But rather than “eating his peas,” President Obama is throwing a tantrum.

The day after the S&P action, the White House took aim at the messenger. Administration officials launched a blistering attack on the agency’s integrity, accusing S&P of employing flawed methodologies and making basic math errors in its analysis. When the bureau acknowledged and corrected one of the problems, chief White House economic advisor Gene Sperling pounced, saying that the credit downgrade “smacked of an institution starting with a conclusion and shaping any arguments to fit it.”

Speaking of OPC (Operation Pest Control) at Monicamemo........

Environmentalists Blamed for Deadly Bedbug Plague
Government policies on the use of pesticides have led to a resurgent population of bedbugs — including some that carry a deadly antibiotic-resistant germ.

Bedbugs had been almost completely eradicated in the United States for half a century through the use of the now-banned pesticide DDT, but their population has grown rapidly during the past decade, overwhelming hotels, hospitals, schools, and apartment buildings, according to a report from the Heartland Institute.

Canadian researchers have recently discovered bedbugs carrying methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). MRSA is a bacterial infection that is highly resistant to some antibiotics and can be deadly if it reaches the bloodstream.

H. Sterling Burnett, a senior fellow with the National Center for Policy Analysis, blames the bedbug resurgence on “poor policy decisions.”

He told Heartland Institute: “Most households have never seen a bedbug before now. But in the early 1970s, the government banned the pesticide DDT, and now we’re seeing bedbug infestations in European and North American cities.

“This is another legacy of Rachel Carson’s ‘Silent Spring,’ the 1962 book credited with starting the environmental movement, leading to the ban of DDT.

“By banning DDT, we’ve killed people in developing countries through the spread of malaria. Now we’re subjecting the U.S. population to bedbugs and other pests and vermin.

“Government should lift the ban on DDT and other pesticides that are effective in treating pests like bedbugs.”

Angela Logomasini, director of risk and environmental policy with the Competitive Enterprise Institute, agrees.

“We had eradicated bedbugs in the past, then we banned DDT for home use, and now they’re back. I think this policy needs to be reevaluated.”

She also said, “We need a better regulatory environment. Rather than removing products from the shelves, which is where we are today because of the precautionary principle, more evaluation and experimentation is needed.”

From that National Review article:

"The big new element on Friday was an official outside recognition that U.S. creditworthiness is being undermined by a new factor: political insanity. S&P didn’t base its downgrade on a change in the U.S. fiscal and economic outlook. It based it on the political game of chicken over the debt ceiling, a game that Republicans initiated and pushed to the limit, and on a growing gloom about the partisan deadlock. Part of S&P’s gloom, moreover, stemmed explicitly from what a new assessment of the GOP’s ability to block any and all tax increases."

So, how's that in blaming the Conservatives!

CNN has a much-needed and revealing poll on the Tea Party movement, with full breakdowns available at their site that reveal — no huge surprise — that it looks like a subsection of the Republican Party. The headline: Eleven percent of Americans have given some kind of support to the movement, with 5 percent attending rallies.

The demographic breakdowns: Tea Party activists are 60 percent male and 80 percent white, with 77 percent of them self-identifying as “conservatives” and 44 percent identifying as “Republicans.” While 47 percent of Americans report making less than $50,000 a year, only 26 percent of Tea Party activists make that little, while 34 percent make $75,000 or more.

"The Republican Party's attempted government shutdown of 1995 marked the new domination of the Republican Party by Southerners like Newt Gingrich, Dick Armey and Tom DeLay. The impeachment of their fellow Southerner Bill Clinton was an attempted coup d'état by the Southern white minority in the United States, which, as in 1860, was frustrated because its candidate lost the presidential election.

The debt ceiling crisis is the latest case in which the radical right in the South has held America hostage until its demands are met. Presidents Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln refused to appease the Southern fanatics. Unfortunately, President Obama and the Democrats in Congress chose not to follow their example and instead gave in. In doing so, they have encouraged the neo-Confederate minority in Congress to find yet another opportunity in the near future to extort concessions from America's majority by sabotaging America's government.

By Mark Duell

9th August 2011

A mystery investor or hedge fund reportedly made a bet of almost $1billion at odds of 10/1 last month that the U.S. would lose its AAA credit rating.

Now questions are being asked of whether the trader had inside information before placing the $850million bet in the futures market, or if the bet happened at all.

There were mounting rumours that investor George Soros, 80, famously known as ‘the man who broke the Bank of England’, could be involved.

In his New York Times Sunday Review essay “What Happened to Obama?” Emory University psychology professor Drew Westen summed up the president’s lack of experience with devastating succinctness.

“Those of us who were bewitched by his eloquence on the campaign trail chose to ignore some disquieting aspects of his biography: that he had accomplished very little before he ran for president, having never run a business or a state; that he had a singularly unremarkable career as a law professor, publishing nothing in 12 years at the University of Chicago other than an autobiography; and that, before joining the United States Senate, he occasionally, as a state senator in Illinois, voted ‘present’ on difficult issues,” wrote Westen, author of The Political Brain: The Role of Emotion in Deciding the Fate of the Nation.

The presidential scholar Matthew Dickinson went even further with a post under the headline “Run, Hillary, Run!” on the blog Presidential Power. “She did warn you,” Dickinson reminded his readers.

For those who might not about the Adam Smith I mentioned earlier in My "Republicans have it wrong about Capitalism."

"Adam Smith (baptised 16 June 1723 – died 17 July 1790 [OS: 5 June 1723 – 17 July 1790]) was a Scottish social philosopher and a pioneer of political economy. One of the key figures of the Scottish Enlightenment, Smith is the author of The Theory of Moral Sentiments and An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. The latter, usually abbreviated as The Wealth of Nations, is considered his magnum opus and the first modern work of economics. It earned him an enormous reputation and would become one of the most influential works on economics ever published. Smith is widely cited as the father of modern economics and capitalism."
