Graham on ABC - We’re going in the wrong direction, but at a slower pace now, with the debt deal. 3 Trillion package that will become 7 Trillion in 10 years.
Graham seems to be “reaching out” to Tea Party with his words this morning.
Geoge Will on ABC - not having tax increases in this deal is a win for Republicans.
Paul Krugman says we shouldn’t be talking about spending cuts AT ALL. This will increase unemployment. Says the average Republican voter thinks the debt deal should include tax increases.
George Will lists all the programs we’ve tried - TARP, stimulus, cash for clunkers, dollars for dishwashers (I think he made that one up), the entire range of stimulus packages simply have not worked.
