    Man, it’ll be nice to get a Dem. president and have the adults fully back in charge.

  2. Haplo says:

    I agree that you can’t trust the Republicans with your money. I’m curious though; does Oliver think that one can trust the Democrats with your money?

  3. mdhåtter says:

    Or your daughters.

    Or your sons. /snark.

    Come on. Can you trust ANY politician with your money? It’s kind of a forgone conclusion.

  5. SaveFarris says:

    Glad to see you’re back on the Budget Balancing rhetoric. Of course, it wouldn’t have been possible without the tax cuts you so virulently fought against. But today is a new day!

  6. Duros62 says:

    August is right, Farris. You are adorable.

  7. z adura says:

    I agree with Farris. Let’s eliminate all taxes. Only then will the government have a balanced budget. Right?

  8. Rex Mundane says:

    No, actually I think what Farris is trying to say is that balancing the budget would be impossible if fearless leader’s glorious tax cut (which I still havent seen a penny of, incidentally) hadn’t screwed it up in the first place. Kind of an odd philosophical thing there, like if Bush hadn’t fucked things up then we wouldn’t have anything to look good for fixing. Like if there is no disease there can be no cure or something. Kinda zen there man.

  9. Duros62 says:

    Rex, you didn’t get your $600 hush money, uh bribe, I mean tax rebate at the beginning of his term?
    We’re all supposed to just shut up about it now, I guess.

  10. SaveFarris says:

    You can’t get a rebate of taxes you never paid to begin with. I was hoping remedial Economics 101 would have taught you that, but I guess our educational system is in bigger shambles than I believed.

  11. Duros62 says:

    I got $600, I pay taxes. Perhaps I mispoke. Not a rebate, but a…. what did he call it? Besides Pissing away a first-time-in-history surplus, I mean.

    The increase in the National Debt for 2007 [xls file] is projected to be a record $843,128,100,785. Hail Bush! Those tax cuts to the wealthy really pay off in debt to the poor.
    You have to hand it to Republicans: no one mismanages the economy and government like Republican Party Apparatchiks.

  13. Rounds77 says:

    It most be difficult to be a GOP “apparatchik” (I like that one) these days.

    I mean, for how long can one remain in that 4-month-post 911 mentality? To them, all this borrowing to fight Bush’s 911-revenge war justifies the GOP’s grossly un-conservative fiscal policy.

    That ever-shrinking 26% better pray harder because they’re doomed by their inability to accept they’re own fallibility.

  14. Dr. Victor Davis Handjob says:

    I’ve never understood why Republicans care about an unbalanced budget. Their ideology preaches that any time they’re spending too much money, they can just cut taxes and have more revenue come in. So why not spend even more! Too many earmarks? No need for Pork busters — just cut more taxes to pay for them! Have all the earmarks and trillion-dollar wars you want! Economics is easy when it’s a theology instead of a science!
