Remember when we used to worry about the deficit? Remember Ross Perot with his pie charts? You don't? Well, obviously neither does the President nor the GOP leadership in Congress. Andrew Sullivan has a shocking post about what Bush's proposals in the second term would cost us. Think those tax cuts come free? Nope. Expect to have your children pick up a three trillion dollar bill.
How did the party that preaches fiscal responsibility get so irresponsible? What ever happened to pay-as-go?
Ronald Reagan used to say there is no such thing as a free lunch. George Bush is trying to act like Ronnie was wrong. Of course, the next generation will have to pay for Mr. Bush's "generosity."
