The Debt Ceiling impasse has come to an end. Truly, Armageddon-Doomsday-Apocalypse has been averted (just paraphrasing Tim Geithner there).
Predictably, both sides are not exactly thrilled: One peeved House Democrat, Emanuel Cleaver from Missouri was rather graphic in his dismissal of the deal reached by President Obama and congressional Republicans late Sunday night, calling pact to raise the nation's debt ceiling a "sugar-coated Satan sandwich."
You've got to hand it to Rep. Cleaver for creativity, mixing alliteration with references to candy, bread and the Prince of Darkness.
