‎The political brinksmanship of recent months highlights what we see as America's governance and policymaking becoming less stable, less effective, and less predictable than what we previously believed. The statutory debt ceiling and the threat of default have become political bargaining chips in the debate over fiscal policy. ~ S&P downgrade statement 08/05/2011 In other words, when Republicans like Mitch McConnell, Michele Bachmann, Rob Portman and Paul Ryan tell the American people that holding debt ceiling increases hostage to draconian cuts while threatening to default will be the "template" for ALL future negotiations, they create a real fear that if they don't get what they want, America will not pay our bills. There are a lot of things republicans could do to make the situation better. Threatening to default as political strategy is stupid and, as we see now, dangerous. How far away from treason are their actions?
