Watching Charlie Rose tonight talking to Chris Matthews and heard Matthews say the wrangle in DC will probably come to a "shut down of govt." What does that mean? asked Charlie. Well, said Chris, the SS checks won't go out. And the conversation went a little too fast at that point and I didn't get it all, but it seemed that whoever gets blamed for that, will have struck the third rail of American politics. What no checks this month? Yeeeeeeooowwwll! Murder with the rim off.
Actually I wanted to do a more thoughtful post on this and may yet, but for tonight this is all: keep an eye out for how the Dems and Repubs play this budget thing, and see who catches the hell. And I think your checks (OUR checks, dammit) will go out. Count on it. This ain't Egypt. Yet.
