Ha! Mutt Sludge caught in another lie

I'm not shocked but who will call him on it?

His phony Headline:

FLASHBACK: Every Dem Sen -- including Obama -- voted against raising debt limit in 2006...

But it's not true at all...

Pennsylvania
Yea PA Santorum, Richard (R)
Yea PA Specter, Arlen (D)

But I'm sure his suckups will be parroting this all next week.

3. Never mind then, the website identified him as a (D) I guess

Sludge was right, Every Democrat voted against raising the debt ceiling in 2006.

Here I thought I had caught him in a falsehood.

4. The point should be....

Bush was running up the debt so fast while giving huge tax breaks to the wealthy, that was a much better time to fight a clean debt ceiling hike. Our economy is in much worse shape now and repugs want to 'balance the budget' (it will never happen) on the backs of the poor, sick, elderly, and hard woking people of this country.
