Just In: Attila the Hun Announces Support for Debt Ceiling Compromise

EASTERN ROMAN EMPIRE (GB) - Attila the Hun, the legendary and ruthless leader of the Huns, took to his Facebook page Wednesday to urge Congress to adopt a compromise debt ceiling plan that cut spending and raised revenue.

"Look, I'm a pretty conservative guy," Attila wrote from his encampment outside the walls of Constantinople where he was leading a long and deadly siege. "Folks are always trying to get to the right of me. But this is some crazy shit coming out of the House of Representatives, man."

He added, "Want to pillage and plunder? Be my guest, amigo. Invade the Roman territories and impale your enemies' heads on stakes? Don't mind if I do. But the one thing you never do is risk downgrading your country's credit rating. That's just sick, dude."
