Am I reading the insinuations properly, that people are blaming Republicans for the rating change because they dare to question printing unlimited money, and belive if Republicans were more "responsible" and just allowed money to be printed unchecked there would be no problem?
I see no evidence that either party wants to restrain spending when in power, but pretending this is a partisan issue and that one party is at fault for questioning spending as apparently some are doing is reality distortion to a new extreme.

If the GOP has an issue with "printing unlimited money", perhaps they should have cut spending when they had full control of Congress and the White House, rather than implementing cut taxes and boost spending:

The debt limit adjustment is to allow the treasury to borrow enough to cover payments already approved by congress. It is meretricious to object to that: if you don't think the money should be spent you should not have approved the spending in the first place.
