The irony of Dems threatening a govt shutdown is hilarious - and will be seen as noble, of course.

That being said, on Morning Joe (yes, I watch, to see what the loons are up to) the issue was portrayed as a change in financial law that would allow banks to conflate FDIC-insured bank accounts with derivative trading (again?). This sounds like a terrible idea, and if true (doubtful), then Elizabeth Warren is correct on this issue (she and Sarah Palin see eye-to-eye on Wall Street and crony capitalism in many ways).

Can someone explain this a bit more?

If the Dems do follow Lie-A-Watha’s lead and shut down the Government, does anyone believe that the Dems will, actually, get the blame? I’m thinking they will find a way to successfully blame the GOP for the Government shut-down. Someone give me some input here. Am I right or wrong?

That is how I understand it and I agree with Warren on this issue.
