In an already shaky global economy, the biggest buyer of goods (USA) could be making cutbacks. This would be stupefyingly dumb. By playing chicken with the national debt, Washington has already irreparably wounded the US economy. The world depends on the U.S. economy running smoothly. A default would lead governments and companies to rethink their relation to the United States, and this has already happened. One blatant lie is that Republicans and Democrats, the Congress and the White House are serious about reining in budget deficits to reduce the long-term debt. They are not. We socialize the rich when they lose money, and then we socialize their ability to profit.
Read the opinions of the Ladies of Liberal. We are of all ages and backgrounds. The only thing we all have in common is that we are women and we are, in some degree, liberal. Some more than most. We argue, respectfully, and we have fun.

Stand Strong Norway t-shirt from Zazzle.com
In Oslo, Norway on July 22, 2011, a home-grown domestic terrorist planted bombs near the Parliament building, then traveled to a youth camp north of the city, where he opened fire on the campers. At least 17 people died this day, with many more wounded. It has been called Norway's "Oklahoma City." On the back of this fully-customizable t-shirt is an inspiring quote from the statement of the Prime Minister of Norway in response to this act of terror.

Pragmatic Progressive button from Zazzle.com
Are you tired of the left-wing bickering over ideological purity? Would you like to see a Democratic majority that will get us started on a progressive agenda, rather than another election turned over to the R's by disaffected, won't-vote liberals? Claim your identity as a Pragmatic Progressive, and proudly support your stand for Getting Sh*t Done! Styled in patriotic red, white, blue, the background is my own design based on a traditional quilt patterns. Because nothing's more pragmatic than the handmade goodness of an all-American quilt!

GOP Promise Breakers t-shirt from BoldlyLiberal* at Zazzle.com
GOP Promise Breakers t-shirt from Zazzle.com
Remember back in the 2010 campaign when the GOP promised they'd have a "laser-like focus" on creating jobs? They won the House of Representatives that way - yeah, right! It's now 184 days into the 2011 Congressional year, and the GOP has yet to bring forward a single bill that would create job growth! But they have put forward a number of bills attacking women's rights, including women's right to reproductive health care. Hey - if you voted GOP in 2010, you fell for one of the biggest bait-and-switch scams ever!

A movement was born on this night of July 5, 2011! Twitter users will recognize # - and this particular hashtag was meant to be derogatory. Well, never ones to let an opportunity go to waste, the pragmatic progressives who support President Obama adopted it as their own. Take that, #ggreenwald - Yes We Can and Wes We Will!
