Well, let me distinguish between professional politicians and the public at large. The public is not paying close attention to the ins and outs of how a Treasury option goes. They shouldn’t. They're worrying about their family; they're worrying about their jobs; they're worrying about their neighborhood. They've got a lot of other things on their plate. We're paid to worry about it.
You know, our Founders were all about keeping the power in the hands of the people, the ordinary citizen.
Now Obama comes along and says, "Aw, folks, don't worry your poor li'l heads about all that nasty debt stuff. It's far too complicated for y'all, so just let me and the 'professionals' take care of it. Bless your hearts.*"
...
I am a Christian, and Christian longsuffering and self-control forbid me from saying what I REALLY think.
Bless his little ol' heart.
