Republicans had the majority for eight years and did nothing except triple the deficit, stoke immigration fears, pander to paranoids, squander the Clinton surplus, authorize warrantless wiretaps, gut the Fourth Amendment, condone torture, support risky subprime mortgage derivatives, deregulate the oil and mining industries (causing great loss of life) and trick America into war. Without the Bush tax cuts, we could have created a $539 billion surplus in 2005; instead, we added $539 billion to Bush’s already ballooning deficit. Between 2001 and 2007, in exchange for mega tax cuts, republicans received $47 million in “contributions” from big oil. Remember: if republicans take control of the House, Barton (paid BP lackey) will control the Energy Committee. Ah, the hypocrisy! Bush and Cheney isolated America and adopted a unilateral stance that made America the laughingstock of the world; Obama unites America and proves to the world that he is the consummate humanitarian, visionary, and diplomat. Strangely, where was all the Tea Klan outrage during the Bush/Cheney cabal? Americans do not have a clear understanding of who is responsible for creating the deficit currently crippling our country—it’s not Obama; it’s the republicans. The seeds of the current financial crisis were sown early on during the Bush Administration. Working class republicans: If you want to live like a republican, you must vote democrat. America cannot be ruled by the top 2%.
