I hope so, we have seen Boehner cry in almost two months!

Seriously though - This whole debt ceiling thing is showing how twisted and sensationalized the news has gotten more than anything else.

The unwillingness to compromise that was such a hot topic during the last US election cycle has been replaced by 'the other party wants to end America as we know it'.

In the mean time, Americans still don't care and are getting even fatter.

Good luck guys.
