Shameful

Shameful that a deal to raise the debt ceiling passed today  8/1/2011. 

Shameful that anyone from the Democratic Party should applaud this deal when it puts more burden on the middle class.

Shameful that this is not a balanced deal and requires more sacrifice from those who have already suffered plenty from the follies of Wall Street and the previous administra­tion.

Shameful that this deal cuts programs thereby adding an increased cost of living to those who can sorely afford it.

Shameful that this will further hurt our economy causing an increase in job losses by further restrictin­g spending vitally needed to grow the economy instead.

Most shameful?

That so-called liberals/d­emocrats are more willing to score a victory for their side than to fight for those in need

Even more shameful is that Obama will sign it just to get it over with so he can concentrate on his election to a second term.  Little does he know !
