Cut and paste: "FOXfact[s]" about GOP budget nearly identical to GOP Rep. Ryan's op-ed
Summary: While interviewing Rep. Paul Ryan, Fox News aired "FOXfact[s]" purporting to describe facts about the House Republican budget. However, all of the sevenon-screen "FOXfact[s]" were nearly identical to portions of an op-ed Ryan published in that day's Wall Street Journal.
hypocritical Republicans. They spent like there was no tomorrow during Bush and now the are the party of fiscal discipline, and their graph on this budget goes out 7o years! it's no wonder they have no credibility.

Not to mention how they stopped pushing for a balanced budget amendment
when Bush was installed. Of course, we had a balanced budget and a surplus
back in 2000.

Yup. Funny how fiscal responsibility goes out the window when the Republicans are in power. Although, we did not have a balance budget and surplus in 2000. Please stop repeating that myth. Clinton borrowed money from Social Security to balance the budgets. Still his deficits were much smaller compared to Reagan and Bush 2. I don't consider taking money from SS to be balancing budget because that money has to be paid back. It's like using a credit card to pay your bills and saying that everything is great.

hypocritical Democrats. They bashed the Republicans like there's no tomorrow on spending too much and then proceeded to spend more money in a matter of days than the US government spent collectively since its inception. And their graph only goes out 5 years perhaps to hide the long term effects. It's no wonder their credibility is going down like the Hindenberg
You know what, they're all *******s. Every one of them. All the R's under Bush who spent like a scorned housewife and then cry conservatism later, every D who shamed the other guy for reckless fiscal policy and then spent even MORE, who voted for the largest spending bill in history without even reading the damn thing, and every armchair quarterback who sits on one side of the fence and refuses to think for even one second that his party of choice could be equally, or hell even moreso, to blame.
I'm afraid the fact is that as long as the lobbyist for fat cats have so many politicians in their pocket .. both democrat AND republican.... whoever is holding office will continue to tax the wage earner and shell out to the rich.
But for the Repubs to travel to Merry old England to try to put this man on the spot. I hate them even more!!!!!!!!!!!!!
