This week, Jake and Eric joined me in studio for yet another goofy session of The LEFT Show. We covered the S&P’s downgrade of America’s credit rating – and the GOP delusion on how it had nothing to do with them – Romney and Huntsman have major problems, cell phones are funny, epic rap battles … 1 vs 3 and I challenged seven major Republican figures to come out to Utah and fight me in the ring.
All in all – a pretty goofy episode.
[Note – Sorry about the sound. It’s not bad, but – one of the microphones went rogue – and Eric and HIS mic were apparently fighting – JMB]

The S&P Quote:
“Compared with previous projections, our revised base case scenario now assumes that the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts, due to expire by the end of 2012, remain in place. We have changed our assumption on this because the majority of Republicans in Congress continue to resist any measure that would raise revenues, a position we believe Congress reinforced by passing the act.” — Standard & Poor press release Aug. 5, 2011
