Re: Spending bill passes the House
We just spent like a month in all-out war between a party that cannot stand the idea of reducing government in any way, and a party that was risking everything to cut the debt back, and you can make a statement like that?
Again, we just raised the debt limit by an amount greater than the entire debt was in 1987. Nobody has even touched entitlements, which, as of 2009, were carrying an unfunded liability of over 100 trillion dollars. But hey, we can fix it all by killing the Bush tax cuts for the rich ($80 billion a year) and getting rid of credits on oil companies and corporate jets.
