Hey McConnell "smoke and mirrors" is how we got into this mess
The conspiracy theory that lead us to war on Iraq -aided by the press
The man behind the curtain says tax cuts will create jobs and increase revenue
The myth of net worth multiplied by directing Fannie and Freddie to increase money into the predatory loan system
mythical accounting across the board (private and public)
smokescreening themselves to not see the obvious need for some or any regulation
unweighed money flown out of the country (to Iraq supposedly)
a war not in the budget (supplemental spending)

And you Mitch were there the whole time cheering it on. You repeatedly chose option A.

1. It was exposed as "voodoo economics" back in 1980.
Poppa Bush nailed it when he was running against Reagan for the nomination. So they made him VP to shut him up and then proceeded in destroying our country.
