Because North Korea really doesn't have the power to do much. The Republicans
really can make us default.


NK can rain down 10's of thousands of rockets on Seoul within minutes killing millions if they wish.

Harry Reid can avert a default in a few minutes by simply discussing and passing the bills already passed by the Congress.

What kind of awful people use brinkmanship like that, if that's really what it is, against their own country and the whole world?

You know, I thought that is why we have elections. Apparently Tenchu thinks it is OK if you lose to take the country hostage to try to do something you failed at the ballot box.

Elections have consequences. Or so I am told.
