You’re making a German spectacle of yourselves.
Tea Partiers, the Obama administration is on your side.
That’s been the message from the White House over the past few days, as top officials dispute charges that Washington is on a spending binge and encourage conservative protesters to count their blessings.
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, when asked about the Tea Party protests, said in an interview Sunday that the Obama administration is paying more attention to deficit and spending concerns than the Bush administration did.
OK, I LOL’ed. I had to stop reading right there. That Geithner fella, he needs to try stand-up comedy, because he is teh FUNNEEE.
Lord knows he’d be better at that than running Treasury. And (bonus!) we could throw rotten vegetables at him and not be taken away by the Secret Service.
Reality just passed me a note. It says, “Can I stop standing on my head now? All the blood is rushing to my brain.”
Do these morons really think we’re…
Dear God…
Until the 2008 fiscal year, the Bush Administration had declining budget deficits four or five years in a row.
I think any sane person will agree we’re going to have $1+ Trillion budget deficits for the next few years.
They’re paying more attention to deficit and spending concerns? They may be talking about it more, but they clearly aren’t acting.
They’re paying attention to the deficit like I paid attention to my weight up until January 1. I watched my weight consistently for ten years. It went from 165 pounds to 249 pounds.
After that, I decided to start watching what I eat instead.
