News that broke during The Situation Room: Fitch Ratings, one of the big three credit rating agencies, put the U.S. credit rating on watch for downgrade because of the gridlock in Congress over the debt limit. Wolf Blitzer asks Chief Political Analyst Gloria Borger and CNN Contributor Ryan Lizza what this means.

    I'm watching the situation room and Wolf Blitzer and Christine Romans talk about ".lawmakers" causing economic damage to the country, That's not accurate. It is entirely the fault of the Repubicans and you do the concept of "news" a disservice by not being straightforward and direct.

    It time for all Americans to petition the Supreme Court for the Following. 1. To have our Federal Taxes Prorated. Since Congress has failed to conduct the people's business and all Government services are shout down. Why Should anyone be required to pay for services that are not available. No Business can stop providing services and still demand payment for services that are not being delivered. So explain why can the Federal Government get away with it.. It's time that All Three Branches of the Federal Government get engaged to resolve this Government mess that is hurting so many Americans. Why can't someone in the media ask this question to the Justices Of The Supreme Court,
    Congress and the President. Their still getting paid so they could care less about the suffering people their supposed to be representing and providing justice for.
