I would be much more impressed at the party of Hoover's new-found concern about the Federal deficit if they were not the same pack of clowns who cheerfully went along with every deficit-busting measure that George W. Bush wanted. It's not that they are from the same party, it's that they are the exact same people. Virtually every one of the Hooverite senators and congressman who have been all over the news recently complaining about the deficit had zero qualms about voting for Bush's massive tax cuts while at the same time ramping up two wars and also adding additional defense spending, not including the costs of the wars, which was added in outside of the budget process.
Jon Stewart smacked John Sununu around about the same thing last night. As you will see, Stewart also got in a few licks at the party of Hoover's thirst to deregulate everything.
