    That was then and this is now, Hoss.

    Nope. Entitlements.

    Bill posted surpluses and paid down the debt. Dub spends and borrows. Barry spends and taxes.

    So do I and I'm not even eligible for Social Security or Medicare.

    Wise up. They didn't revoke it because Dems were for better health care. The epitome of hypocrisy is republicans claiming that the future health deficit is all about Obama's Trillion-dollar Health Plan and ignore that Bush's Trillion-dollar Health Plan constitutes half of it.

    We're on Barry's watch. Don't act like that makes no difference.

    Fine, but he's still mostly paying on Dubya's debt right now. Don't act like it isn't there.

    Nobody said it wasn't there. The point is that Obama is adding to it in historic proportions with no effort to reduce it.

    He campaigned on hope and change and many Americans said OK, let's see what you got. Now they see and are rejecting his proposals but he tosses those objections aside and does what he and Pelosi and Reid want to do. I cannot believe that you continue to defend him.

    I just love the way all the tea partiers, conservatives, and republicans have now all come to Jesus on the deficit in the last 2 years, when a lot of spending was done because the economy tanked.

    Where the F*** were they before?

    I don't know. But we're here now.


    Why does this piss you off? Face the facts that the Obamareidpelosi monster needs to be stopped.

    You can call it a tax if you want. Only way to pay down debt is allocate money for it. I'm talking like $10 per person EVERY person for a series of years. And not parking it in the general fund where politicians will just take and use.

    I don't see anything funny about this. Slash income taxes, slash spending. It's pretty simple.

    Also another problem is that the TPM needs to actually stand up and vote for real fiscal conservatives. Because if you have been voting for the Republicans of the past you are nothing more than part of the problem.

    And as far as I'm concerned you have nothing to bitch about..

    Too much talk and too little action. I blame the Boomer generation of credit and consumers.

    You just contradicted yourself. First you say tax everybody to pay down the debt, then you say slash taxes. WTF?
