Binyamin Appelbaum and Eric Dash, The New York Times News Service: 'Standard & Poor?s removed the United States government from its list of risk-free borrowers... a downgrade that is freighted with symbolic significance but carries few clear financial implications.

It described the decision as a judgment about the nation?s leaders.'
