Run the deficit up as fast and hard as you can when the Rethuglicans are in charge and then scream about the deficit (that they caused) when the Dems take over. What have these deficits gotten us besides huge interest payments and richer rich people?

Just a reminder that Democrats have been cleaning up Rethuglican messes since 1933.
