They said clearly that we need to raise taxes too.
Everyone with a brain and No religious devotoion to Norquist knows just cuts wont do it.
We have to bring in more money and cut.
We have been cutting and cutting.
Now we need to raise taxes to fix this mess.
Pretending we can fix it and not raise taxes is what the S&P said they made their decision on.
Show us where they said "raise taxes."
There are many ways to raise revenues and more taxes *can* be 1 way but realistically it does not always work that way. Capital gains taxes being raised gets the Government less taxes. Thats like concluding that because they said we needed more spending cuts to get our spending under control if I said See, S&P *clearly* said we need to end the department of education. While ending the DOE is a good idea reality is they didnt give a specific and I would have to of lied, just like you did
So fact, per your OP S&P did not say we needed more taxes, they said we needed more revenues and the Bill Republicans were involved in was destructive to the economy, killing revenues.
TM you can spin it all you like but you have literally put works in their mouth, nothing more.
Do you ever get tired of getting owned so hard TM? Hey, do you like my sig by chance?
