[StBernard] Worthwhile reads

[Westley Annis]

But you're not so naïve to believe that once one party (the Democrats)
opened the flood gates that the Republicans were going to let the Democrats
be the only ones to reap the surpluses, did you?  Fault always lies with
"who started it."  Besides, add up the years starting with LBJ and tell me
which party controlled the spending for how many years.  True, both parties
are at fault, but only one to blame.  That's why the tea partiers like Paul
Ryan have it spot on and appear to be the only ones who get it.

Yes I can see that...from your second link:

That enormous amount of money has allowed ***both parties*** in Congress to
fund innumerable wasteful programs and pork-barrel projects while concealing
the size of the deficit.
