Twitter Feedback: S&P Downgrade

Hi My Night Owls,

I had a funny feeling that S&P was going downgrade United States credit rating. United States loss their triple AAA rating for S&P. The White House is challenging S&P about their downgrade on United States. Here is twitter feedback on S&P Downgrade.

Is it possible S&P made a typo and meant to downgrade the UK instead? Or the UAE? Or the UN?

This whole begging S&P not to downgrade the US is like everyone pretending the producer of Ishtar is the powerbroker of Hollywood.

So, S+P warned gov of imminent downgrade, WH challenged figures+methodology+now S+P r not downgrading? We're really in ridiculous territory

Surely the Tea Party is preparing sincere apologies for costing the American people billions by prompting a downgrade by S&P

Wow...never thought they'd actually go through with it. The timing ofS&P's downgrade seems un-American to me.

S&P downgrade is a clear message to the current administration to stop f'ing spending and think of the future. The US should be a leader

I knew it. S&P were going to downgrade US regardless of debt ceiling. Someone wants the economy to tank. Check hedge funds against US $.

Reading about credit rating downgrade. White House is blamingS&P calculations. Absolutely shameful.

Very strange decision by S&P to downgrade US credit rating now, after the passage of a major bipartisan debt reduction package.

Is S&P downgrade enough to get rid of Geithner finally?

The outlook on the new U.S. credit rating is "negative", S&P said in a statement, a sign that another downgrade is possible
