I saw signs in a yard that depicted him as Alfred E. Neuman. And the phrase went more along the lines that you said. - The Ruiner Aug 23, 13:25

- I don't think we get a Tea Party with a President Hillary. And the Tea Party drove the recent debt scare and the 2010 House win for the GOP. - TWuG Aug 23, 13:22 22
  - If she had done all the same money-printing that Obama did, sure. - Dr.Johnny Vermin Aug 23, 13:28 1

  - Bull, the Tea Party was driven by Washington suddenly thinking a $1.8 trillion deficit was hunky dory. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:25 19

      - Anti-tax isn't pro-deficit when they're also anti-spending. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:30 11

        See, your problem is that "=$0" part is a total strawman. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:35 9

        And yet that level of deficit spending was significantly less than what started the Tea Party. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:54 5
        
        You can say however much you want to about how bad things were under Bush, but the fact remains we never had a trillion dollar deficit until... - Ender Aug 23, 13:56 4

        In Nov '08 the FY 08 deficit was scored by the CBO at $455 billion. The shit didn't hit the fan until '09. - Ender Aug 23, 14:11
        
        ergo, the Tea Party caused the increase in the deficit!!! -- nm - znufrii Aug 23, 13:58 1

    - And that started with Obama? -- nm - Jim Aug 23, 13:27 4
      - Before they took power the Dems were bemoaning $400 billion deficits. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:28 3

        The total public debt has been neither $400 billion nor $1.8 trillion in quite some time. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:36
        
        sure, when it went toward tax cuts for the rich and a war of choice against an enemy who hadn't actually attacked us. -- nm - znufrii Aug 23, 13:33
some, perhaps, on a personal level. but in terms of the institutional opposition of the GOP against the legitimacy of his administration, I doubt that - znufrii Aug 23, 13:15
