Bernstein on debt fight: 'Fake, manufactured controversy'

Carl Bernstein, Vanity Fair: "We’re headed for a train wreck.

Carl Bernstein, Vanity Fair: "We’re headed for a train wreck. There’s a fake, manufactured controversy being stimulated in Washington, and particularly by the Republicans on this issue of the debt limit. They’re gonna take it to the cliff, and pull back at the last minute. But the consequences of that are very dangerous. And at the same time, it really is time in this country to deal seriously with entitlements. But we’re not going to do it before the election."
