This article contains a healthy reminder that the United States isn't "facing" bankruptcy, it is actually bankrupt.

"The
reaction of the self-described progressives to this dire scenario?"
"Sweep the facts under the rug or ignore them completely, as it appears
that the most important things in their lives are the legalization of
gay marriage, free contraceptives and abortifacients, worshiping at the
altar of extreme and discredited environmentalism, mocking and
undermining all organized religion (except Islam), and telling the
American people what they can eat, where they can live, what may be
taught in their schools, how they must operate their businesses, and
what health care they can access."

"To
the true believers on the left, re-electing Barack Obama is not a
matter of what is or is not good for the country; rather, for the
majority on the left, the primary motivation is geared solely toward
defeating their sworn enemy: conservatives and Republicans, whom many
falsely believe are a right-wing horde determined to create a theocracy
and impose old-fashioned morality. But what they fear most from the
right is a determination to reinstitute unfettered individual freedom
and concomitant economic growth, which would relegate the American left
to the back bench of American society."
