Former Bush administration White House Press Secretary Dana Perino said yesterday that rising deficits are “this year alone higher than the last four years of the Bush administration combined."
This is rather like shooting somebody and then criticizing them for running up hospital bills. The point here is not that we had to spend to turn around the economic collapse the Republicans caused, but instead, unless we want another meltdown, to never let them be in charge again.
Let’s compare apples to apples, look at Clinton’s last four years. Talk about screwing the pooch. …I meant that with respect to Bush’s deficits and not Clinton’s escapades.
