... similarly Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has said that he is confident that that [a downgrade of US Treasuries] will not happen.Of course not. Congress has its lusty eyes on the trillions of dollars in 401K plans.

If the triple A rating isn’t in trouble, somebody’s not paying attention.

Of course it is.
Moody’s warned of this before deathcare passed.
Of course, if Moody’s is warning now, and did NOT catch the financial mess of 2008, what does that say?
We are in deep trouble of exactly that, loosing AAA.
Then all of those Arm resets coming down the pike will REALLY kill the housing market.

Are we in trouble? Yes.
Unfortunately, the people in a position to do something about it won’t.
Have a nice day.

Yes it is at risk. And Moody's should be slapped, hard, for contributing to the moral hazard we already face with a Congress and President who think that there are no downsides to unlimited deficit spending.

We would be better off if they had to pay junk bond rates. If they can’t sell our debt, then they can’t borrow.

You bet your sweet bippy we are in trouble. The Chinese can OWN our real estate and considerable access to our natural resources almost without firing a shot.
And don’t worry about having a work force to extract these natural resources. They have plenty of young male overseers to assure the process goes smoothly (for them).

The ONLY real question is how long does the government last at Aa and A before falling to Baa? Or does it tank all the way to Ba (only 0.8% of municipalities get Ba ratings)?

I’m going to have to stock up on my maps from AAA while they’re still around.

Lets hope so. As soon as America falls flat on its face primarily due to Obama’s anti-american policies, the sooner we can build ourselves back together, stronger than ever.

I think that this fascist administration is putting great pressure on the ratings companies to not lower the rating...
