I believe that Republicans call the Democratic Party the tax and spend party because it's been said so often that uninformed people believe it. It's a useful myth.
But even if it were true, wouldn't it be better than the idiocy of gross spending WITHOUT taxing? That's a simple-minded credit-card mentality. It's why we're broke and China's calling shots like, "Fix Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, or else."
I would think that the "patriotic" crowd would be deeply embarrassed to know that Bush & Co. have sold out to the Chinese. It's just another business at which he's failed.
Guess who's won the best oil contract from the Iraqi government? You got it: the Chinese.
Awk!
