(81,125 posts)Well, look in the mirror, Georgie-boy. High n mighty holier-than-thou elitist CONservatives like you have been building toward this very result FOR YEARS. THIS unintended CONsequence is what you get when you work for decades to badmouth, undercut, and cripple government and offer public prayers to the tax cut god and preach so sanctimoniously about the pestilence of lazy moochers and the desperate need to comfort the already-comfortable.
THIS condition now is where that selfish, shortsighted jerkitude can lead - and now actually HAS taken form and shape.
THIS is what you and all the rest of us are reaping - from the seeds you carefully sowed and tended and watered and fertilized over several decades.
THIS is what that lame-ass supply-side economics and starve-the-beast bullshit will produce for you.
THIS is the logical CONclusion.
THIS is the then that inevitably leads from the if in your if/then scenario.
THIS is the result you get. Your god Reagan and his penny wise-pound foolish gospel of tax-hating and screw the poor and IGMFU worldview (I Got Mine, F-U) have led you by the nose through all that pie-in-the-sky to this dismal time.
As you fervent, glazed-over-eyed republi-CONS said with your own slogan blared out to the world during one of your big CONventions (I think it was the McCain/Palin one): You Built It.
Happy now?
