If the GOP is the party of fiscal responsibility, why do they allow their junior staffers to spend profusely?

If lower level junior staffers can spend so liberally, can you imagine how the major players spend their contribution money? Is the GOP really the party of fiscal responsibility?

The Republicans haven’t been the Party of Fiscal Responsibility since at least the 1970s. Before Ronald Reagan, Republicans were all about running the government like a business, balancing the budget even if that meant spending cuts, tax increases, or some combination of both of those.

Then along came Reagan with his cheerful idea that we could balance the budget by spending MORE and taxing LESS. It was like one of those fad diets where you lose all the weight you want by eating only chocolate and Mexican food. It had the great charm of never having been tried. But it was tried, and it failed -spectacularly-. In a single term, Reagan doubled the entire pre-existing national debt. Well into his second term, on his way to tripling the debt, Reagan was still insisting that his tax cuts for the rich and corporations would boost the economy enough to pay back the debt he’d incurred. It didn’t even cover the interest on the new debt.

But Republicans believe that you haven’t failed until you admit failure. (This is why they also refuse to admit GW Bush’s egregious failures.)

The GOP is really (and has always been) The Party of Privileged People. Staffers believe themselves entitled to spend lots of party cash, because they deserve it. Just as millionaires deserve to make their capital gains tax-free and corporations believe they have the right to move their mailbox to the Cayman Islands to escape their own tax liabilities.

Traditionally the GOP has always had a lot more campaign money to spend than the Democrats. That’s no longer true but it’s hard for them to change their privileged mindset. 8^)

Is this bad news, cons? Florida Democrat Wins Congressional Race to Replace Wexler?

It seems the republican attempt to make people turn on the Democrats because of health care didn’t work. The Democrat trashed the republican.

November is going to be a bad month for the cons.

Why is the Governor of Florida leaving the Republican Party?

http://cbs5.com/politics/charlie.crist.governor.2.1655793.html
Is it because he wants to run for higher office next time around and doesn’t want to be in "The Party Of No"?

Any republican that shows the least bit of willingness to work with the dems is persona non grata. They eat their own. The party of no tag is appropriate. More power to him.

Why did Eric Holder NOT invite Florida to the gulf states oil spill meeting?

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Attorney General Bill McCollum wasn’t on the invitation list for U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder’s meeting Tuesday with Gulf state attorneys generals and U.S. attorneys after his tour of areas affected by the massive Gulf oil spill. McCollum’s office didn’t even know about the meeting in New Orleans until a reporter e-mailed a Justice Department press release to his spokeswoman

Why is this partisan Eric Holder the US Attorney General? Isn’t he supposed to represent and/or at least PRETEND to be the pillar of JUSTICE in America? HE’S THE US ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

But….. Eric Holder was appointed by 0bama, who also appointed that self avowed communist as Green Czar… 0bama also booted Fox News out of the white house. Does anyone else smell something odd about this 0bama administration?

What is you opinion?

Lets see Holder snubs Florida, 0bama snubs Jindal and Brewer, I get the feeling this administration could care less about the Southern states. I think that is it, so time to impeach and vote them out.

I want to get involved with volenteer work can somone please give me ideas?

I am very interested in politics, the glbt community, and the environment and I was wondering if there were any nonprofit organizations if Florida that could help me get involved with this. If anybody could help me out I would greatly apreciate it.

See the All for Good web site, which lists volunteering opportunities in your area.

What’s the most concerning ISSUE to worry about in politics RIGHT now?

I found out that FREEMASON members who switched over to the ILLUMINATI have been rigging the powerball for several years. Most recently, the POWERBALL moving to Florida has been the most significant sign of manipulation and fixed winners in three years. WHEN are you AMERICANS going to wake up and stop GIVNG MONEY TO CROOKS?

That sounds like a conspiracy theory to me.

Why is Florida’s Atlantic coast exempt from off shore drilling and states further up will be in jeopardy ?

Politics maybe? I hope North Carolinians will express some concern.

It’s all about money.

Florida is a big tourist destination and besides Orlando, people go to the beach. Tons of oil slicking up Miami Beach or Daytona Beach would be bad for tourism. Florida makes more money from tourism now than they could get from oil. There are other areas that are covered as well including places where the fishing industry is important.

Why did Florida get a $25 billion exemption from 0bamacare?

0bama’s New Politics my @SS!
