So, are you sick of this debt-ceiling circus yet?

Me, too.

For many Americans, the episode was an exercise in anger management. Everything we've come to loathe about politics was on full display, and I've been tempted to ignore the entire sorry affair … except for the fact that the outcome has very real consequences for all us.

With that in mind, let's examine the law in detail, courtesy of a number of comprehensive analyses of the new law that are floating around out there.

• A warning of more to come, courtesy of the Washington Post: With the immediate debt ceiling mess out of the way, attention now shifts to a new bipartisan panel “that will have the job of developing a broader plan to control the government’s debt,” writes Lori Montgomery. Prepare for more political games.
• The Christian Science Monitor asks the question of the day: What will debt-ceiling deal do to the fragile U.S. economy?

There are a ton of other excellent analyses out there that I haven't mentioned here. What are some of your favorites?
