Scary place, the Pentagon, full of military types who welcome me as warmly as they would a Taliban fighter carrying an AK47. Harry and Nancy are suggesting that, instead of going cap-in-hand to Congress to raise the debt ceiling, I should just seize the national checkbook, cut a trillion dollar check and damn the consequences.1/12/13
