But that's what the sheeple think.

Of course it's what the sheeple think.....what else were they supposed to think when that line was force fed to them through the media 24/7?

On the surface it sounds like a very valid reason for breaking promises without looking like they are breaking promises.

AAA bond rating is always a good fall back excuse for raising taxes......they've been using that tactic in Delaware for years........and the last time it was true was back in the 1970's and then Gov Pete DuPont didn't give a rat's behind when he declared the state on the verge of bancruptcy---because it was. Before his first term in office was done that AAA rating was back.

It was nothing but a little blip on the screen.
