Of course the RePIGS don't care about deficits that will eventually wreck the economy, cause a market crash and jeopardize your 401K and the future of the country. They're fucking Trump sycophants and hypocrites. They ought to be ashamed of themselves.

Drive off the cliff already, would you please!

Do it, and I'll applaud! (And, unlike the original, I won't shed tears).

By sheer virtue of being repigs, those scum are unable to feel shame

What straight, fat, white, republican men compare themselves to rape victims who were driven to suicide my heart swells🙄

Can we never, ever, never, ever, never, ever, and by the way, never, ever assume that Republicans in Congress give a flying fuck about the Deficit? Can that never, ever happen again? I mean anyone paying attention knew that since the Reagan years, but assholes keep saying it. Can assholes please never say it again? Ever? Pretty please.

Assholes. They'll be talking about the deficit again in eighteen months the moment a Democrat is sworn in.

I'm failing to find any connection between Thelma & Louise and the deficit. someone please enlighten me.

It is probably a near impossible expectation to expect thoughtfulness, common sense, empathy,coherence, or lucidity from most of the current governance that is associated with the repo party. They are so deep in their affair with trump that they are all giddy school girls hoping he will invite them to senior prom. It is a sad, pathetic series of events and behavior that the republican party has largely become an extension of mother russia, putin, the KKK and let us not forgot, nazi sympathizers.

I tried to write the above without rushing through it with what seems to be my permanent angst and horror about repubs, but I neglected to proofread. "and let us not forget" is what the last sentence should begin with.

Quentin Crisp rocked the look of the OP's photo of a repug so much more successfully than the repug politician.

Yes they will r8, but the question is, can every journalist and every blogger and everyone else in government stop this bullshit and never, ever again take seriously the idea that any elected Republican gives a fuck?

No, rethugs DO care about deficits...if they are fighting to reduce spending on safety net programs, healthcare, education, medical research, and anything else that doesn't make money for the military-industrial complex.

Oh, they also care about deficits if it's a democrat who is president.

R9, in short, it's Susan Sarandon's fault.

He was Louisiana's longtime State Treasurer. Go figure.

And he's ALWAYS been a smart-mouthed, braying asshole.

by Anonymousreply 16July 24, 2019 3:43 AM

They're fine with it now because it pumps billions of dollars into the economy theoretically helping Chumps reelection. The minute a democrat is in power they want to restrict spending for the opposite reason.

by Anonymousreply 17July 24, 2019 3:56 AM

They see Democrats as invalid and inferior, so their hypocrisy is just fine.
