Well…I was reading an article today that had ole Boehner talking about how bad the deficit is and how it is the only important thing for the house to focus on…but his reasoning made my jaw drop and it is still on the floor as I try to absorb the stupid…his reasoning went like this: because we have run deficits for 55 of the last 60 years, it shows that the government needs to bet cut and live within it’s means or there will be some sort of huge catastrophe….get that?
