    Did you happen to read the subtitle?

    Fresh off a gigantic spending binge, Republicans now say they want to eliminate the deficit. Uh-huh.
    So they run up deficits with their tax cuts, then posture over the deficits caused by those tax cuts.

    So how is that railing against the deficit since the deficit was expanded by the binge they just did?!

    Fiscal Terrorism is not "railing against deficits". It's posturing over deficits they created with their policies.

    Pointing out Conservative hypocrisy over the debt and deficit doesn't mean we share those same phony concerns.

    We're not the ones posturing over the deficit like Conservatives have the last 10 years.

    Since you lack an economic or fiscal argument in favor of yiour stupid policy, you choose to make an emotional argument.

    When taxes are cut, household debt increases.

    So people aren't getting to keep more of their money.


    you're a retard.
    You're so stupid, you got conned into voting for a reality TV show host.

    Trump just handed us the largest federal monthly deficit ever.

    He's also grown the debt over $22T.

    Where's the 3% growth you promised?

    So then since it can't be patched just make it bigger,
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Agreed. Both parties become concerned about the deficit and debt only when the other party is in power. I do see a lot of liberal posturing on the deficit now.

    None of that has anything to do with my posted links to conservatives criticizing the deficit. I'm sure with a more thorough search I could find many more conservatives critical of the deficit whether they blame it on the tax cut and or excessive government spending.

    Really? How so? Posturing how?

    Again, pointing out Conservative hypocrisy on the deficit doesn't mean we share the same phony concerns.

    Holding Conservatives accountable for their teabagging doesn't mean we believe the lies they teabagged about 10 years ago.

    Only one of your links actually had criticism over the deficit created by Conservative policy.

    The others didn't.

    So I don't know why you keep insisting something that simply isn't true.

    Conservatives stapled teabags to their faces 10 years ago to posture over the deficit.

    Then 8 years after that, they passed a massive tax cut that expanded the deficit.

    14 months after passing that deficit-expanding tax cut are they now saying they are concerned over deficits.

    But the deficit only exists because of tax cuts in the first place; tax cuts Conservatives have made orthodoxy.

    Funny how the teabag crowd is now strangely silent on the thing that caused them to staple teabags to their faces and posture over the debt 10 years ago.
    Hey uber moron, you are evidently one of the only intellectual midgets in your sorry excuse for a party who thinks deficits are a bad thing: https://theweek.com/speedreads/82245...ing-more-money

    This is just one example. The problem lies in the congress, who holds the purse strings as they are so fond of reminding us. You leftards come up with some stupid expensive vote buying giveaway scheme, and spineless RINOs go along with it. Then you get that idiot obama in there who constantly told us that "America has to pay it's bills!, Don't shut down the government"

    Do you have any solutions for this? If not, shut the fuck up. The tea party was against high taxes, that's it, they never "stapled tea bags to their faces" or any of that other stupid shit. You want to solve this shit? 1) SLOWLY wean people off these expensive government programs 2) SLOWLY lower taxation 3) Teach your children to be self sufficient

    That's a start. Maybe in a few millennia, after we rediscover Atlantis and solve the riddle of travel at the speed of light, we can get the deficit down to a manageable level

    Your idiots voted for a tax cut that created the largest monthly deficit ever, and has us on track for trillion-dollar deficits beginning this year.

    10 years ago, the trillion-dollar deficits had you so worked up that you stapled teabags to your faces and screamed like barnyard animals about the deficit and debt.
