Let me start by saying that I do not always agree with Keith Olbermann's way of express himself in front of the camera, probably because sometimes, paradoxically, it reminds me of some specimens from Fox News. In this occasion, I must say, he has delivered as anyone should have after the agreement on the debt ceiling was announced.
Olbermann addresses, among many others, two very important points in his speech (that you can watch here). One is about the Republican demand of a constitutional amendment to avoid deficit, the other is directly related and, obviously, has to do with the decision to not adding any revenues. With such an amendment in effect, it is scary to think, Olbermann says, what may happen if, God forbid, we are struck by a terrorist attack, or a natural disaster (I don’t have to remind anybody about Iraq, Afghanistan, or Libya). If adding revenue is out the game for the government, who is going to pay for the future boo-boos in the economy? The answer, unfortunately, comes straight to your face, YOU!
