Allen West, had you even bothered to read the Standard and Poors release, you’d have seen this (via Think Progress):
It appears that for now, new revenues have dropped down on the menu of policy options. [...]
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.
Then again, what else would we expect from someone who claims it’s “socialist” to recognize the (ever-growing) gap between rich people and the rest of the country, fought to defund Planned Parenthood, called Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz the most vile, unprofessional and despicable member of the US House of Representatives, and had my friend and radio host Nicole Sandler arrested for committing democracy?
