When Cheney made the statement "Reagan proved Deficits don't matter"

[Winterblues]

Which one of these Republican Deficit Hawks stood up and said Cheney was full of shit? Which one raised holy hell and tried to put in place a freeze on spending? Which one? .....crickets, is that what I'm hearing? Does anyone else hear all those crickets chirping?

1. Speaking of Cheney,

is that war criminal in prison yet? Why do I still see him on television spewing his bile?

3. He's on TV because

the MSM has been republicon since Ronald Reagan, and because intimidation WORKS. Death threats work. Suicides work. Exploded planes work.

The Bush bunch are well aware of it, and have been doing it for a loooooooooong time.

2. Cheney proved that Republicans don't matter.

4. They changed that rule.

Now, deficits don't matter unless a Democrat is President.

[Old and In the Way]

5. So, I guess you're saying that Republicans are unprincipled, opportunistic hacks?

It is amazing how they've rediscovered their roots...after their 'taxcut and spend' philosophy has pretty much imploded the world economy.

6. This deficit will leave a larger deficit than obama's,

apparently.....they've fudged the numbers a bit.

[Badlands Democrat]

7. Republicans didn't say squat...

But I will defend my Blue Dogs, who DID speak up. I know they are much reviled on here, but at least they're consistent.

8. The way I see it, Cheney meant deficits don't matter

when running for re-election.
