Republicans: The New Democrats

The Democrats were always mocked by Republicans as "tax and spend" liberals. But guess what? That's a lot smarter and more responsible than being a Republican who decides to "tax less for rich people and spend a LOT more."

Bill Clinton was fiscally responsible and had the booming economy to show for it. Bush and the Republicans are spending money like drunken sailors, while giving bigger and bigger kickbacks to the super-wealthy in the form of lowering estate taxes and other bonuses that only benefit a tiny 1% of the population.

Republicans are the new "Democrats." If you want a fiscal conservative who is pledging to stay within their means, vote Democratic. If you think our country's economy should be run by people behaving like a college student with his first credit card, vote Republican.

As threader Jerry put it, "We've never known what the GOP would do if they controlled all three branches of government, and now we do: record deficits, wars without end, rampant corruption, isolation from the world community, invasion of privacy and a looming theocracy. Happy?
