SOTU: "Congress was right to return people's money"

[phillybri]

Hey asshole, you only "return" people's money when there is a surplus!!!

When you "return" people's money while running a massive deficit, the money is actually a LOAN!!!!!!!

:grr:

1. that's the same way as saying

"Congress was right to cut government services"

2. Except that..

"When you "return" people's money while running a massive deficit, the money is actually a LOAN!!!!!!!"


Except that usually the persons taking out the loan (getting the money) are the ones to pay the loan back. Not so for this "loan". The wealthy got the "loan" and the rest of us (especially tho poorest among us) will pay it back - or get a visit from the repo man.

3. The irony

(OK, maybe it ain't ironic in the classical sense)

That little tidbit nearly fell word for word out of the mouth of the idiot fictional Republican running against Martin Sheen in the day's "West Wing" re-run.

Seriously.
