Thank you, Tea Party - UPDATE - Thank you, Bush

This video is very good. It was produced just before and released more or less at the same time as Standard & Poor downgraded the US credit rating from AAA to AA+.

Of course, the teabaggers won't take responsibility for it, and perhaps we should expect to see Sarah Palin on Fox News blaming Obama...

UPDATE (via Andrew Sullivan). It all started with Bush...
