'Hotter than Bond. Cooler than Bullitt,' movie posters proclaimed. John Shaft was indeed a shut-your-mouth detective to reckon with, a fact emphasized from the film's start by Isaac Hayes' Academy Award-winning Best Original Song and Oscar-nominated score. Richard Roundtree plays the smart, tough, confident lead, a private investigator whose hunt for a kidnapped woman puts him in the middle of feuding syndicates. Gordan Parks directs from a screenplay that Ernest Tidyman (that same year's Oscar-winner for The French Connection) co-scripted from his own novel. John Shaft is an icon of change from an era of change. Today, Shaft still tells it like it is.

House Speaker John Boehner raised the specter of another debt ceiling fight; insisting that Congress would not raise the debt limit this time around, unless he gets cuts and reforms greater than the debt limit increase. Then the GOP controlled House goes ahead and passes the Defense Authorization Bill -- adding $8 billion more than the spending caps in last year's budget and almost $4 billion more than what President Obama requested. Up host Chris Hayes, along with panelists Betsey Stevenson, former Chief Economist for the Obama Labor Department, Karl Smith, assistant professor of Economics and Government at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and MSNBC policy analyst Ezra Klein, discuss whether the debt limit should be a crisis at all.
