This is the message. Shout it from the rooftops and beat the GOP to death with it.

@SrRochardBunson what does it mean "refusing to pay for it"...isnt a tax cut by definition, something you dont have to pay?
@freemo @SrRochardBunson He means that the GOP can no longer hide behind the ruse of "fiscal responsibility" to cover their actual goal of helping the rich get richer at the expense of the vast majority of American voters.
Ahh so I guess he meant "pay" figuratively... got it!
@freemo @SrRochardBunson If they actually cared about the debt, they would only make tax cuts in one area that are paid for by spending cuts in another so as to keep a balanced budget. Clearly, the do not actually care about a balanced budget.
@larthallor Not to defend the GOP but im not sure its that simple. If they could have their way they would probably cut all or most social programs and give the highest tax bracket a tax cut. Hopefully achieving a balanced budget.
But its not like they have free reign and actually get to cut social programs (since democrats block it). Not saying that is wrong of the dems to block, just saying they dont really have the choice to control both sides of the equation.
@larthallor I am familiar with the concept... It is self destructive because it assumes the democrats will act responsibly and not spend money they dont have.. but we all know that the democrats are just as reckless to their ideals as the conservatives, so such a tactic in practice doesnt work.
