Ever notice how when there's a Republican in the White House the Republicans belly up to the trough and spend like gluttons? But when a Democrat gets in the White House, they suddenly become born-again "Fiscal Conservatives"?
Here's a little history/economics lesson:
Fiscal Conservative Ronald Reagan left us with a $200+ billion dollar DEFICIT.
Fiscal Conservative George H.W. Bush left us with a $300 billion dollar DEFICIT.
"Tax and Spend Liberal" Bill Clinton left us with a $200 billion dollar SURPLUS.
Fiscal Conservative George W. Bush left us with a $482 billion dollar DEFICIT.
I don't know how many more of these "fiscal conservatives" we can afford.
