Mark Steyn:

America is the brokest country in history. We owe more money than anyone has ever owed anyone. And Obama and Reid say relax, that’s no reason not to spend more — because the world hasn’t yet concluded we have no intention of paying it back.

Indeed. The fact that there are any Democrats left in Congress after last November is a sign that too many Americans are oblivious to the basic facts of our current financial situation.
