Democrats Show Their Brand of Fiscal Responsibility in Denver

Hot Air has a story about the Democrats’ money woes going into their convention, with this little gem from the NYT inside it:

The Democratic National Convention Committee decided not to take cheap office space and instead rented top-quality offices in downtown Denver at $100,000 a month, only to need less than half the space, which it then filled with rental furniture at $50,000 a month.

$150K a month, for twice as much premium office space than it needs...if the Dems are willing to blow that much of their donors’ money lavishly before the convention, how many more of the taxpayers’ bucks do you think that Democratic Party control will squander should they take control of the White House in November?

Before Bush, national debt 3 trillion.

After Bush, national debt 9 trillion.

Looks like your boy can spend with the best of them. Congratulations on the Republican spending spree.

Buzz: Did you drink all the Kool Aid™? You may not have noticed 9/11, or the GWOT or Nancy Pelosi’s mitts on the House of Representatives where all spending bills originate!

(Jr. High Civics class: Something for Buzz to look forward to!)

While the Republicans were in control, Bush didnt veto a single spending bill. Your boy signed them all Proof.

True. For which he was criticized by conservatives. But to lay the entire increase in deficit at his feet alone is dishonest. That would be you!

Ok, I guess Cheney and Rumsfeld had something to do with mess were in also. We shouldn’t really pick on the mentally challenged. He was just doing what he was told.

Hey Buzz…

Yes or no?

Buzz - if you paid attention, you’d notice that we decried the spending. It looks like you’re more interested in making dishonest partisan cheap shots instead of paying attention to and recognizing reality.

But hey, at least one person (that would be you), fancies yourself as clever, so at least you’ve got that.
