Members of Congress who blame tax cuts for causing deficits might as well argue that gun manufacturers cause homicides, fast food restaurants cause obesity and cigarette makers cause lung cancer. Surely no one would agree with that flawed logic.

Uhh...this is a joke, right?

Not that he's wrong, he's 100% right, but isn't this pretty much the DNC platform?

I think ... I know what he is trying to say is that there is not a direct correlation between the two.

For some people and the Democrat Party platform cause means equals so: tax cuts = deficit; gun manufacturers = homicides; McDonalds et al = obesity; tobacco manufacturers = lung cancer.

Most people realize that some correlation exits but not total. I don't think it is a joke ... the joke is that many people don't care to hear the facts. They'd prefer to be told something and just restate it.

Facts after all have a way of tipping the apple cart and messing things up. Doesn't matter where, be it politics, ideas or even at home.
