Wallace points out the defecit record of the dem congress. Steny Hoyer defends it by saying it is a better record than they inherited?! lol
Steny says we were in a “deep hole” (which they’ve been continuing to dig for the last two years)
On the Pledge to America, Hoyer agrees with conservatives that it is “milk-toast”. Wallace points out that those conservatives don’t like it because it doesn’t go far enough in cutting spending, etc.
Hoyer blames Repub’s for not extending the Bush tax cuts. Wallace points out the dem’s hold the majority. Hello??!!
The Democrats took control of Congress in Jan 2007. They inherited a $160 billion deficit. They did not, as they lying claim inherit a $1.3 trillion deficit from GW Bush since THEY controlled the Congress that created that $1.3 trillion deficit!
Stenchy just called Wallace “Charlie”
Wallace asking about Steven Colbert testifying as comedic character being appropriate.
What a lying POS, talking about Clinton’s great economy and Bush’s terrible economy.
Any idiot could look at economic performance charts and visually locate the historic congressional majorities and elections.
Steny Hoyer is all over the place this morning. (Chris has to remind Steny what his (Chris’s) name is at one point.)
Talks about the best(90’s) and worst (2000’s) economic periods in his lifetime. Not sure if he realizes the “worst economy” in his lifetime occurred while the dem’s were in the majority.
That explains part of the problem then; they should have looked for "ladder ready" jobs, not shovel ready.
Of course, Steny and his buddies are going to need bigger shovels if they want to see this to voters. Joe Isuzu should replace the donkey as the dems symbol; "would you buy an economic policy from this guy?"
