They have no shame...
or honesty.

If I had voted for Bush and had watched him and the Republicans take us to war on lies, charge two wars to the credit card, give a big pay-off to the insurance companies thru the Medicare drug program, give away the farm to the wealthy thru taxcuts, then drive our entire economy off the cliff, I would be embarrassed to admit that I had voted for him.

But there is no embarrassment or shame in these people. They have conveniently forgotten those eight years. They prefer to blame it all on Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. After all, we were doing pretty good until the Democrats took over the Congress in January 2007, they say.

The Tea Baggers appeared to have a little conscience left in 2008 as they threatened to leave the Republican Party for all the big spending. But that was short-lived. They forgave and forgot. Now, everything is Barack Obama's fault.

1. Here is why they have no shame. They DO NOT consider themselves reprehensible.

3. If I had voted for anyone
who expanded the war on terror, supported the continuation of the patriot act, was willing to consider cuts in medicare and social security, praised the firing of an entire high school staff, was willing to bail out banks but not people, and thought GWBs policies were good enough to continue most of them,

I would be ashamed.

5. It really is all Barney Frank's fault
How a minority party member of the House was able to get everyone else to loan trillions of dollars to illegal immigrants so that they could buy up all the real estate, I will never know. But he is the cause of the global financial meltdown, or so I've been told...along with ACORN, of course.
