Republicans moan and groan about “fiscal responsibility”

From Valdostadailytimes.com


How dare they speak of fiscal responsibility when their President failed to veto a single appropriations bill during their period of congressional control. Bill after bloated bill was signed into law by President Bush, enacted by a Republican Congress that showed no concern over the dramatically increasing national debt. In election year after election year, we see and hear Republicans talk about “tax and spend” Democrats. Republicans, by their actions, have proven themselves to be the party of borrow and spend, and they are borrowing it from our children and grandchildren, more likely our great grandchildren.


The republicans have become very big spenders. Lowering taxes dose not make you a fiscal conservative. They should focus on lower spending and taxes will take care of themselves. That said, the spending we have seen with the latest "stimulus" is jaw dropping, and dose make republicans comparatively conservative.
