If you're going to say that Republicans were responsible for the surpluses of the 1990s, you'll have to blame them for the deficits of the 2000s.

I do indeed blame House Republicans for being fiscally irresponsible from 2000 through 2006. They were spending like Democrats. Which is why the voters booted them out of power in 2006 and got rid of a bunch more in 2008.
It would appear that unlike Democrats, when Republicans screw up they do not get reelected. Whereas the more Democrats screw up the better their chances of being reelected.
