800 Billion More Debt

[depittydawg]

At least my states Senators are independent enough to say no to the latest midnight spending package of congress. Where is the outrage of the Tea Party over this massive extension of federal debt? Where is the outrage over another trillion dollar debt increase rushed through a lame duck session of congress without time for debate or analysis of any kind? Our country has simply gone berserk!

"Nevada Democrat Harry Reid gave up on the nearly $1.3 trillion bill after several Republicans who had been thinking of voting for the bill pulled back their support."

Hard to do when you have to negotiate around your foot.

its not the country that has gone berserk, its the elected officials, people WE ALL put in office. Both sides used the " Bush Tax Cuts" like a political football, to posture, pander and wheel and deal...this lame duck session was used to get pork projects for both sides...Until both sides get these earmarks out of bills,it will remain business as usual in Washington DC

You gotta love a party who's raison-d'etre for the past two years has been to criticize the Bush/Obama stimulus and unfunded expenditures, then turns around and passes a 850 billion dollar stimulus package and just heap it on the already 13 trillion debt! Can anyone name ONE THING that has been done in this session to curb spending or even attempt to pay for this package? Obama froze federal payrolls to the tune of 65 billion saved. Just a whiz in the ocean, but at least its something.

Nothing like a little earmark hypocrisy...

Kind of like what I've been saying about both parties!

Hard to defend Republicans when they are no better than the Democrats.

The rest of the story;


"Two things:

One, this piece fails to mention the fact that it was the Tea Party folks, led by Sen Jim DeMint (R-SC), that forced the Republican senators like McConnell and Kyle to back away from earmarks.
Two, there is no mention of the Democrat's earmarks, or the fact that Reid and Pelosi stuffed the Obama Tax Compromise with MORE spending."


Just here to help........

Last I checked the Dems still had control of both houses and the white house. Seems they are in charge.

You will be whining like a little girl if and when they start cutting government programs like they should.

Your hero Obama increased federal pay the past several years and has not frozen step increases. Don't act like he is some type of savior. What needs to be done is lay off government workers or make them take a pay cut.
