12. Offset Spending Hypocrisy

House Republicans have sought to balance the budget with offset spending for everything including natural disasters like: Hurricane Sandy Aid, Tornado Disaster Relief, etc.

Since Republicans are suddenly so concerned with being spend thrifts, where's the House Republican's plan to offset the taxpayer money they're spending on their list of investigations?

Darrell Issa (R-CA) said he had a list of things he wanted to investigate before he even took office, did he also have a list of things to cut in order to offset spending millions of taxpayer dollars on this list of things he wanted to investigate?

Since nothing is getting done without offset spending, why have House Republican's gotten away with wasting tens of millions of taxpayer dollars, by repeatedly voting, in a futile attempt, to repeal the Affordable Healthcare Act?

Better yet, while House Republicans are consumed with spending offsets and sniffing out scandals, where's the House Republican's plan to offset the billions of taxpayer dollars being spent on Gitmo?

Since Gitmo was first conceived by Republicans as a Constitutional loophole for human rights abuses, shouldn't it fall upon House Republicans, to find an offset?
