Here is a beautiful view of how the world sees Boehner and the Republicans in Congress. I do believe "right wing nutters" is pretty danged appropriate. What the Republicans are trying to do would throw the whole world off balance. Their actions will cause a chain reaction of government failures across the world. Why would they do this?

Mr Cable said the row over whether to raise the American government's debt ceiling was a more serious crisis than the eurozone's problems.
But he added: "The irony of the situation at the moment, with markets opening tomorrow moning, is that the biggest threat to the world financial system comes from a few right-wing nutters in the American congress rather than the eurozone."
