:Any irresponsible policy making and out of control deficits on the Hill, were due to Democratic decisions for 40 years, compared to 12 Republican years.
40 years of Democrats Versus 12 years of Republicans, it does not take a rocket scientist to figure out the Democrats mishandled, misspent more Social security funds than the Republicans, who the Democrats accuse.
I'd contend its both parties faults... When you consider that the people on the Hill all have childish mentalities, neither party comes out clean. They both sell out to their own little special interests and friends and both waste money on things like taking trips on our dime, etc. etc. etc. The worst is the stupidity of increasing spending and decreasing taxes... Great way to run up a record deficit (what the last eight years of Republican control have netted the nation financially). Both parties tend to spend money like it is burning a damn hole in their pocket.
