 I rarely write about our discussions on the No Agenda Show podcast after the fact, but I really need to replay something my partner John C Dvorak said, to my friends who find themselves caught up in the 'debt ceiling debate'.  As a part of the left/right paradigm, you are being played to buy into this phony debate. The mainstream media is gleefully taking advantage of this wrestlemania match to reel you into reading and watching their 'news.'
Our consensus is that because President Obama himself voted against the debt ceiling when he was Senator because 'he knew it would pass anyway', and his own administration provided the very tax breaks to 'corporate jet owners' he is now threatening to take away, the republicans are only using this to distract from his campaigning efforts which, of course, make use of 'our' corporate jet Air Force One.
