Hastert just said they'd continue to "Hold the line on spending".

[patrice]

I can't stand this anymore. What alternate universe are these people living in??????????????

[MadMaddie]

1. Apparantly not the Average Americans....

He also said the economy is great.....

[patrice]

11. God, I hope Average Americans know enough to KNOW what he just

said IS COMPLETELY *I*N*S*A*N*E*!

[maxsolomon]

2. one where there are no consequences for lying

"its just politics" - GWB

[LSK]

3. i was thinking that too

[AndyA]

4. I guess they're going to try to keep it from going into another galaxy.

It's already blown through the roof, into the stratosphere under their "leadership :eyes:" so I guess they're going to try to stop it before it gets to Mars?

[Trouser Trout]

5. I had no idea Hastert was a comedian n/t

[TornadoTN]

6. Keep repeating it, maybe someone will believe it

Eh, Dennis?

The numbers and the facts speak for themselves. Most thinking Americans know this and the others are catching on.

[originalpckelly]

7. I now know why Hastert is so fat...

he is totally full of shit.

[trof]

8. WHAT LINE?

The 'line' was erased years ago.

[Marnieworld]

9. Sure, Hold the line while you are moving it

How many times have they raised the debt ceiling now? How do the press live with themselves when they let these things slide?

[RobertSeattle]

10. Stay the Course

...on massive deficts
...on no oversite of the executive branch
...on sucking up to corporate interests

[Garbo 2004]

12. Ah I see, the nation has record deficits due to GOP Congress' fiscal

prudence. :puke:

[LiberalArkie]

13. on welfare, medicare, food stamps, and other costly programs.

[Vincardog]

14. They are holding the line on all SOCIAL SPENDING. Cut Vets medial

Cut schools. Cut maintenance on the roads and Bridges.
Let no dime be left behind for the public good.
That is the RepubliCANTS holding the line.

[lpbk2713]

15. Don't do us any favors.

If he's talking about a 'line' on a graph, it's going upward at around 45 degrees.


We sure as hell don't need them to continue sending the US Treasury into bankrupcy.

[Mountainman]

16. They are trying to gain something with each one of these events

Blame gays, blame Dems, Label Foley (D,FL), take no responsibility. Maybe they think we will drop it if it looks like it will have a positive effect on the repugs chances. Just goes to show you how damaging they think this can be.

[TheDonkey]

17. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAHAHAA

sorry but this is just too much

[Kierkegaard]

18. How the fuck do they sleep at night?

I can't imagine the stress level involved in having to lie, cheat and steal at such a high level, on such a routine basis.

How do we weed these evil fuckers out of our government?

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

[bunk76]

19. WTF?

So,let me get this straight,hold the line on spending,but give a child predator all the rope he needs to spend,got it Denny,you're doing a heck of a job.

[leftchick]
