Spinning....
Reference (Just one of many such stories) So....basically...the Democrats overspent by $857 Billion dollars on the completely unfounded assumption that they would be able to raise taxes to cover it. Then they try to blame Republicans (who are not yet in control of either house, btw), who are just doing what they have always done. They do this by assuming that taxes should be raised (read: more of your money should be stolen taken), and then calling anything less than that a "tax cut" and "adding to the deficit". Does anyone else see the insanity here?
