Get a grip. The House, under Boehner, passed Cut, Cap & Balance this downgrade is all on the Reids do-nothing SENATE and Obama.
And then he proceeeded to cut Jim Demint off from trying to get 4 votes to pass CCB.
Oh, and agreed to a Super Congress who CAN raise taxes despite what Boehner claimed to his rank and file..and if the taxes aren’t raised.. the DEMS can threaten granny and DOD.
