There it is, the debt ceiling deal is official passing both the Senate and the House and I have lost some respect for a number of people who I thought I backed. The first of those is Paul Ryan and the second is Reid Ribble.
Two that I can throw my complete support behind are Rand Paul and Wisconsin's very own Ron Johnson. You can see Rand's open letter below:

Overall I am disappointed and fear this was a big mistake by our federal government. This has done nothing to shore up our debt situation, the United States was at zero risk of defaulting (you don't think we would have just printed the money??) and our credit will be downgraded anyway! Nothing accomplished except allowing the government to continue spending at an unprecedented rate.
