"It's time to have an adult conversation about spending."

The "new" Republican soundbite uttered this morning by Orangina and Pence.

Glad to hear it.

There is so much waste in the military budget, especially as so many services have been privatized.


Sadly :sarcasm:

the difference between the dems and republicans is that the republicans will spend to give to the rich folks and themselves. there are dems who do that too, but predominantly the republicans want to shift the burden of paying for everything onto us and off of rich folks. they still spend, they just don't pay for it. they pass the bill on to us. they borrow the money figuring by the time we notice, they'll be long gone. because they aren't interested in helping you or i. they get paid while they are there, and they are planning their getaway with benefits from us and new cushie jobs working for the companies they just handed tax cuts and more to.

it's no coincidence that when the republicans are in charge the deficit goes UP. spending goes UP. and they charge up the credit card and trash the room and then duck out on the bill leaving us to take the fall for it.

which is more responsible? Jr. spent like a drunken sailor with no clue about how to pay the bar tab.

NOW they care apparently. and then he also cooked the books what with keepig the cost of the war off the budget. then when obama corrected it, oh look at how he already increased the deficit. and people wonder why we need friggin independent media, not all owned by for or five big multi conglomerates.

Lesson 2: It's raining.

They must be totally dependent on a block of voters without a clue

Nah, I didn't think so, either.

Columbia, Israel, Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea, Somalia, and Iran, the Stans, etc.

That would be refreshingly adult, but I'm not holding my breath.


Fortunatly, Social Security and Medicare are all pay as we go programs and we already paid.


Just because somebody stole it for those wars isn't our fault. We already paid.


Any responsible adult would conclude it's time to slash the war budget. Big time.

The list of spending topics might be a bit more expansive than they counted on. Be sure to capture the moment when they realize that the corporate giveaways and military contracts they have been pimping out their entire political careers are on the top of the conversation's agenda.

Oh, and the Adult Convo BS--Oooo, I hope they talk about the birds and bees. And porn. And wide stances and screwing the American people who aren't billionaires. Oh, this should be a spicy talk.

ask all the relatives who can employ him.
