Representative Issa (R-CA): Bush admin got us voted out of office, They were the BIG SPENDERS.

[Tx4obama]

Excerpt:

In a brief interview with the Huffington Post following the House's passage of the health care reform bill, Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Cali.) scoffed at the idea that his party misstepped by going all in against Obama's health care proposal. Asked about a widely circulated column by former Bush speechwriter David Frum, which argued that the GOP would have benefited in the long run by having traded support for more conservative legislative language, the California Republican attacked the messenger.

"A former staffer, and you're calling it credible?" Issa said. "We have an obligation to vote, at the end of the day, based on whether we believe it's the right direction, the wrong direction, not withstanding some former Bush staffer. Remember, President Bush was the administration that got us voted out of office. They were the big spenders.

1. "They"...Ahhh More Revisionism

Gotta love these asshats trying to pretend none of them were around during the dark days from 2000-2008. And what were Issa's votes on boooshie's wars for profit and tax cuts for the rich that made this defecit soar? Well he won't talk about that.

Denial doesn't flow through Eygpt but right across the rushpublican party...

2. "Do'h" - Darrell & Republicon Homelander Cronies

Thanks a pantload for inflicting your beloved Chickenhawk Republicon Preppies -- xCommander AWOL Bush & Dickie 'Five-Military-Deferments' Cheney -- on America twice.

Too frikkin late for you to whine about it now, Darrell, and to pull the typical republicon stunt of trying to avoid responsibility. You and your chickenhawk republicon cronies have already done the damage to America.

4. A decent interviewer would have asked him how he voted on all those Bush* Spending packages..

"We have an obligation to vote, at the end of the day, based on whether we believe it's the right direction, the wrong direction, not withstanding some former Bush staffer. Remember, President Bush was the administration that got us voted out of office. They were the big spenders.
