(snip) REP. STENY HOYER (D-MD), HOUSE MINORITY WHIP: Does the country have a spending problem? The country has a paying for problem. We haven't paid for what we bought, we haven't paid for our tax cuts, we haven't paid for war.

I’d like to think all these idiotic statements coming from the left would cost them votes, but it seems that the dumb are inspired by these people.

Just another quote to be included in the “Dumb Statements Politicians Make” book.

(More transcript)
HOYER: “Well, we spent a lot of money when George Bush was president of the United States in the House and Senate were controlled by Republicans. We spent a lot of money.”

The gall of this blatant lie.

He can’t even afford the jester outfit he deserves to wear for making that statement.

Try that argument with your credit card company, jackass. What a freaking TOOL.

Every time these people open their mouths and try to “wordsmith” their way around the issues, they show themselves as the stupidest people ever to hold elected office.

They couldn’t MAKE it on the outside. They could never “Build That.”

Hoyer is a socialist POS. Socialism Is Legal Plunder - Bastiat

http://www.usdebtclock.org

‘bout time for CIRS - Citizens Internal Revenue Service to serve notice to collect a debt from the politicians/socialists and their friends and families past and present...all earnings, income, investments, property should be fair game.

I just read a post on FR the other day where the poster mentioned needing a TV show named “Democrats Say The Darnedest Things”, great idea.

OTH Hoyer is right in a literal sense, they never have a problem spending; when you can habitually spend what you don’t have you have the spending part perfected.

How does one “pay” for tax cuts, if not with spending cuts?

The country has an elected representative problem; they no longer represent.

I still can't wrap my mind around how the federal government expects us to "pay" for tax cuts.

Apparently, most of the folks in it can't either.

Yeah.

Thanx Steny you Richardhead, I’d be driving a brand new Ford Raptor truck but I have a “paying for problem.”

I’m ready for that asteroid, and I can only hope it lands on DC.

Amazing this guy can hoodwink enough voters in MD to be a senator. The folks in MD must be a special kind of stupid, right along along with DE, KA, MA, IL, WA...

He's actually right.

We elected those idiots.
Now, we're paying for it. And that's a big problem.

Why, as of yet, has nobody spoken (nor asked from these dip-shits) that/how tax cuts cost the gov’t presumes the $$ belong to the GOV’T and NOT the individual??

HOW FRICKIN’ HARD IS THAT TO BRING UP GOP????

And the follow-up, posed in this same thread...Does this same bullshit work in the REAL world? NO.
