Primarily, it has been the radical Republican Party with their control of the propaganda. But the Democrats are not blameless. In their silence, they are complicit.
No one had the guts to stand up and say we need to cut the defense budget by 50% immediately. We need to get out of these wars. Our presence in Iraq and Afghanistan is doing nothing to stop terrorism or those that might be planning a dirty bomb in another part of the world. It was folly to go into that forsaken country and it is even more foolish to stay.
No one had the guts, before the last election, to stand up and scream, "Let the Bush taxcuts expire!" Now we have these nuts spread throughout every state spouting their elitist "revolutionary" message. I blame no one but the Democrats for this.
The Republicans must be called on their lies. Barack Obama has not spent more than George W Bush and the Republicans. He inherited a deficit of $1.3 trillion dollars. Once again, like every time before, the Republicans get the old time religion on budget deficits - until they get into the White House again. At the very least, the Democrats should call them on their lies. At the present time, I have little respect for either Party.
