Schadenfreude is delicious at the moment.

We need to face the reality that the strident positions of the Freedom Caucus WILL put the US into default next year. Any movement led by a sociopath that throws his Spaghetti against the wall when angry can not be expected to run the country with integrity.

The cretins that sent these people to Congress fail to understand the gravity of their decision. A default on the debt holds catastrophic consequences.

Of course, they only want those for other people.
I'm reminded of a sign that I saw in a photo
of a Tea Party gathering back in 2009-2010.
The sign read Keep the Federal Government Out of My Medicare.
