Does anyone else find it side splitting funny that the U.S. officials are talking to the Europeans about how to control their debt?

Also, do you think Obama will be hurt by his decision to bail out failed European economies with U.S. tax payer money? I would think the republicans will hammer him over the head with it.

It happens right here on C-D. Threads opened up (mostly by conservatives) about Europe's financial failures. Cracks me up.

Then when i mention that they'd do better to worry about our own problems, i always get some offhanded bull that makes no sense as a response.

US has not made such decision so it won't hurt anyone.
