Sen. John Kerry on Sunday laid the blame for the recent downgrade of the nation’s credit rating at the feet of conservative House Republicans.

“I believe this is, without question, the tea party downgrade,” Mr. Kerry, Massachusetts Democrat, said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Standard & Poor’s rating agency on Friday dropped the U.S. credit rating from AAA to “AA+, questioning the ability of leaders in Washington to deal seriously with the nation’s debt crisis.

We now know the Democrat talking points. The GOP, of course, will blame Obama and the Dem’s and nothing will get done about the debt, which is the real reason for the downgrade.

Dumb comment from the bunny suit.

The tea party doesn’t have even one seat in Congress. It isn’t even organized.

It is only an idea: “America shouldn’t spend more money than it takes in.”

I suspect that not adhering to that principle is what caused the Obama DownGrade that goes hand in glove with the Obama Downturn in the economy. (Which has, so far, lasted his entire presidency.)

And we’re not out of Afghanistan.
And we’re not out of Iraq.
And we started another war with Libya.
And we are not out of Gitmo.
And we are still getting electronic intelligence.
And we still have the Bush Tax Cuts.

And there is no hope; and there was no change.

Oh, NOW I understand. We will "get there" when the US credit rating is CCC.

I learned from John Kerry that President Nixon ordered him into Cambodia on Christmas day 1968.

People know the part I’m playing

Ooh, what they’re saying’

Thank you. Thank you very much.

The Senate and House DEBT-O-CRATS havent produced budget in over two years and this “COWARD POS” has the nerve to say its the Tea Parties fault.

Maybe if you did you job Mr Ketchuphead we could have avoided this.

You could start by paying your taxes on your damn sailboat that have stored in another state you TAX-CHEAT!

YOU ARE THE PROBLEM THE COMMON MAN IS COMPLAINING ABOUT BUT YOU ARE TOO ARROGANT, BETTER YET TOO STUPID TO REALIZE THIS.

CANT WAIT UNTIL YOU PASS LIKE YOUR UNCLE TED DID. THEN I CAN TAKE A ROAD TRIP AND CRAP ON YOUR GRAVE AND TED’S TOO. IF I CAN WAIT UNTIL HANOI JANE FONDA JOINS THE BOTH OF YOU I CAN MAKE IT A THREESOME.

YOU ARE NO WAR HERO YOU POS,YOU THREW ALL YOUR UNEARNED MEDALS INTO THE POTOMAC AS A PROTEST TO THE WAR.

YOU ARE DISGRACE TO EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER SERVED IN THE MILITARY AND DESERVE NO RESPECT FROM ANY OF US THAT DID.
