OK you are now Barak Obama.

You have put taxes and cuts on the table and have been rejected and woalked out on twice. You say "DOn't call my Bluff" and they say "you'll see whose bluffing"

Greece, Spain and Italy are teetering on total default.
ICeland Ireland and the UK are already wrung out.
Germany holds Greece and the Euro in thier hands.

If you veto on the last day, the default and credit downgrade is yours.
If you go along, the credit downgrade and default is both yours and the extremeists. But you don't know that for sure.

Err on the side of caution is what I would do. I would not use as many words as Obama, As a white guy, I would be angry and succinct, but I would go ahead and sign.


Or would you use simple and volitile restatment of facts along with strong accusations and threats and declare you are following the voice of the People. "I veto this gift to Billionaires. I VETO this murder sentence against the AMerican People!"

What WOULD you do?
The downgrade is coming and will be done by Stadard and Poor's first.
