A Political Comedy

If this does not forebode disaster, I don’t know what will. This is a game, People. If those of you who continue to call yourselves Republicans do not wake up, it won’t be leftists who destroy this country. It will be your petty attachment to the letter (R). This could be the official end of the Tea Party OR it’s authentic birth. Now, let us listen to Limbaugh and Levin bash US for bashing Republicans. It is they who are responsible for this. We have no one else to blame.

clipped from cafehayek.com   Suppose that in a mere three years your family’s spending, spending, mind you, not income jumps from $80,000 to $101,600.  You’re now understandably worried about the debt you’re piling up as a result of this 27 percent hike in spending. So mom and dad, with much drama and angst and finger-pointing about each other’s irresponsibility and insensitivity, stage marathon sessions of dinner-table talks to solve the problem.  They finally agree to reduce the family’s annual spending from $101,600 to $100,584. For this 1 percent cut in their spending, mom and dad congratulate each other.  And to emphasize that this spending cut shows that they are responsible stewards of the family’s assets, they approvingly quote Sen. Harry Reid “Both sides have had to make tough choices. But tough choices is what this job is all about.”
