This is the winner of a recent National Debt Video Contest. Though slick and well produced, the creator fails to mention how the freedom-loving squirrells chose to fight 2 decade-long wars on two different continents that were never paid for, and the total cost of those wars exceeded 4 trillion nuts. Meanwhile nuts set aside for Social Security were stolen annually by corrupt squirrells in Congress to pay for general spending and make deficits appear smaller. Our Verdict - MASIVE FAIL.
Profanity warning. Everything you won't read in the mainstream media about the debt deal.

Video - Lieberman on the Senate floor - Aug. 2, 2011
The Senate's leading shill for useless war does not hide his extreme prejudice yesterday as he discusses budget priorities.
It's a pretty decent new read from NY Mag's Jessica Pressler, albeit with an anti-Taibbi slant and a decidedly pro-Lloyd flavor. What Pressler misses, or in some cases glosses over, are the details of Goldman's control over Washington via an endless stream of Government Sachs Squid turned Treasury policy makers, from Dan Jester to Neel Kashkari, Henry Paulson and a dozen more. She also neglects to recount how Goldman drove AIG into bankruptcy and then demanded a bailout (see Tavakoli's Arsonists With Fire Insurance), or how Goldman acolyte Jester purposely sabotaged AIG's plea for leniency from the ratings agencies after having followed Paulson there from 85 Broad Street, or how Paulson installed former Goldman executive Ed Liddy as CEO of AIG in order to facilitate a counterparty payout at 100 cents on the dollar for Goldman and its clients, and finally how Goldman execs lied to Congress with the claim that Goldman did not receive ANY of the AIG counterparty payments, when in fact it leaked a few months later that more than $3 billion went straight to the Squid.
That said, you might enjoy reading Pressler's piece for a look inside Lloyd's now 'constantly unquiet mind.'
