Constantly insisting democrats and Republicans are equal, except when the President is a Republican the blame then shift unequally to be the Presidents blame alone shows outrageous and uneven blaming gaming.  Its not a clever getaway with it game, its clear how your game is played, roamer1.
The buck always stops at the top, we already exposed that farce.  Democrats rarely are held accountable and many complain about it here and often.

They seriously ARE equal. Republicans, by their promise, should be slashing at the federal behemoth, chopping away whole unconstitutional departments, substantially reducing regulations and costs, putting the fed back in its Constitutional box. That has never happened in my lifetime. Never.

And when costs DOUBLE under a Republican administration, Nearly doubling the costs incurred by the swingingly liberal Obummer administration... Doubling over even ObummerCare... Well how the hell is that justified?

If it were a few hundred billion or trillion more... you might be right... I might just be chewing sour grapes... I might could be convinced of it as a temporary measure. But this is 15 trillion ... sure to go to 20 trillion this year... That's drive us into the ground money.

And y'all try to justify it. There is no justifying it. NO EXCUSE even possible. I cannot vote for that and I will not throw fiscal conservatives under the bus. I made that vow under Reagan's watch and I sure as hell won't break it now, just because the circus is in town.

None of the Democrats wet dreams matter if the Republicans turn us into Venezuela. And they are.

And why are the Democrats not held accountable? Ever ask that question?


It just might be because there are Republicans in the same schemes who would be exposed.

In all too many instances, the Swamp is a non-  or bi-partisan effort. It is independent of Party lines.

That's right. And there is no opposition. Including Tumpy and this clown-car administration... If it were true that he is standing in the breach, the first thing to do is choke the dragon... cut off it's air... Its air is money, and the money is going UP.. I mean SKYROCKETING... Not going down.

Everyone here was moaning under ObummerCare, how we couldn't afford it... How it was going to drive us all into the poorhouse...

Now Republicans are spending near TWICE that, and nobody is even flinching...

Don't even criticize Democrats ever again for their big government spending... Because all y'all are voting for more than they have ever done. Fiscal conservatism is now officially off the table.

But that is what I am here for. That is one aspect of those principles of conservatism that we are all supposed to stand upon. Principles... Truths... Unchanging Truths. First things.

So much for all that.  *****rollingeyes*****

The democrats get their way aND GOLLY GEE, NO BLAME, EXCEPT REPUBLICANS SHARE THE BLAME.  Yet when Republicans get their way, and not hardly in the last FOUR YEARS, you blamers can't find a voice to share blame, with democrats, eh?  You really must think people are stupid to not see through that.

When the Republicns had two years to reverse Obama administration policies (some of which hadn't even fully kicked in yet) they FAILED. IF you want something to 'shout' about, try shouting about that.

They failed to seize the moment. In doing so they continued to act as if the Democrats were running the show. Someone would have to be pretty uninformed to not see that.

Sorry, I like 99% of your posts, but going back in time, is not valid for me.  I would have to remember EVERYTHING..that went on in that time!  LIKE DEMON-RATS saying they will OBSTRUCT and resist everything POTUS try's to do, good for America. Like going on VACATIONS, for a month to Puerto Rico.  NOT BEING IN SENATE, HOUSE, to vote on a bill.  POTUS sat all my himself, waiting for them to come back to work!  Then, POTUS learned about E.O.'S.  He was trying, FIRST, to get demon-rats to work with him.  An E.O. can be removed by next president, unless it was, AN E.O. BY DEMON-RAT OBAMA.  What moment was to be seized?  New cabinet, trying to follow our rules & constitution.  I DON'T CARE FOR going back in time, when one needs to have all sorts of facts to EXPLAIN why things weren't done, at a time.  There WAS A REASON.  The above is by memory.

The nazis, NATIONAL SOCIALIST DEMOCRATIC PARTY NSDAP AND communists of last centuries Germany forced Kaiser Whilhelm out and took over.  The Nazis and Communists rebellions and warring factions brought Germany down with the addition of the Great Depression.  It was a free for all for a while.  Much like todays lock-steppers are doing in American cities with brownshirt tactics of so long ago.

SINCE obama and all demon-rats GUTTED OUR MILITARY and medical supplies and anything else that would help Americans, I have no problem with spending money on military and fixing Obamacare, for THOSE STILL ON IT, till it can be totally removed.  Not all 'deficit' is on POTUS TRUMP.  He is not taking his $450,000.00 yearly salary. POTUS returned 20% of the money allotted him, to set up his cabinet. POTUS is very thrifty. POTUS is having NATO pay, their delinquent accounts.  OBAMA did not do that.  CHINA is sending us BILLIONS IN TARIFFS.  ONE TRILLION WAS PUT INTO TREASURY.  Do I have to remember everything?  All you focus on is the "deficit."  NOT WHAT IS COMING INTO AMERICAN COFFERS and that it takes time, to turn things around.  I am not worried.

Smoke and mirrors. Military and 'fixing' obummercare is a PITTANCE against 15T (soon to be 20T) dollars in four years.

Yes, you are using smoke & mirrors.  Did it ever occur to you, that YOU are not getting all the information about our 'deficit"?  That is the only drum you keep hitting. Obama was, who started us down that road. NO BUDGET FOR 8 YEARS. Sending pallets of green cash to IRAN.  You are not looking at the total picture. You support BIDEN/KAMALA? 
THEIR PLAN IS TO SPEND 4 TRILLION DOLLARS ON THE  NEW DEAL, ALONE.  NO STEAKS TO EAT.  NO AIRPLANE TRAVEL.
I still say TRUMP ENVY.  How about you beat up BIDEN/KAMALA?  THE COMMUNIST who will take ALL YOUR ASSETS AWAY FROM YOU.  I forgot, they want to destroy all our buildings, start from SCRATCH.  Time for reality. FOCUS ON THE REAL ISSUES AND THREAT TO OUR REPUBLIC.  THANK YOU.

DEMOCRATS!!! BOO!

And in the mean-time justifying the biggest spending boondoggle in the history of man.
It seems you've got your koolaid by the gallon. Keep on chuggin.

There hasn't been a balanced budget since Clinton, and that only because the 94 Congress was Conservative and forced it on him. But no budget under Bush, even with Republican held houses. and no balanced budget under Tumpy either. Don't be ridiculous throwing dirt in the air about Obama, when your boy is twice as bad.

You are absolutely correct; there hasn't been a balanced budget since Clinton and Trump IS responsible for the current deficit. 

I highly doubt we'll see a balanced budget if Trump is re-elected (too far down that rabbit hole).  Nothing that he has done during his administration indicates that he'll even try.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Nope. I expect he'll double down.

In 1918 the Nazi Party (under its earlier name) was a minor regional rabble-curiosity and Hitler was not a member until the latter half of 1919.

Losing condescending snarks like the one I edited out might be wise.

I think I am correct regardless... The senate has never had an inclination toward turning off, or even turning down the spigot... Until a month before the election, that is. And that is no 'come to Jesus' moment... Just making sure the voters think they are being thrifty... I fully expect them to knock the chocks out again in early november.

I won't be voting for any Republicans this year but one... The only one not guilty of signing those spending bills.

There are particularly two marijuana referendums that I am driven to vote against... so yeah, I will be voting... Just not for your boy.

And all I have ever done here is stand upon Conservatism, just like I always have. I would have thought that a no-brainer in a conservative forum. Obviously not. Timeless Truth is obviously less important that getting Trumpy's fat ass past the finish line.

I have never exonerated a Democrat. I have never said Obummer is good. I have never justified a damn thing coming from the left. I expect the left to be LEFT.

I don't expect it of the right. Like I said, I don't give a crap about the left. The problem is that the right is nor acting as the right. They are offering *no* opposition... And there is no consequence for it. None whatsoever.

And I am not your friend. And I care not a whit if you think me an enemy - Your shallow accusations mean nothing. ALL I care about, and all I am here to defend, are the Principles of Conservatism. Principles that are otherwise not being defended in the least.

So don't expect me to join the fetid rah rah Republican thing, nor this insipid administration. What they need is a good ass-whoopin, not praises... And certainly not endorsement.

I'm not putting it on POTUS so much, lots of OJT there. But Congress mostly wasn't new to the job, and should have been ready to go, rolling back Democrat crap like Democrats are when they get a chance to steamroll out Liberty. They have the Bills written and on the shelf, multiple versions, just waiting for opportunity. I definitely did not get that from the GOP, which seemed totally unprepared for the opportunity they got with control of both houses.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
