One of My Favorite Videos Explains

in Vewy, Vewy Simple Language, exactly what kind of shit the Koch Brothers' Republican hirelings are trying to force public service workers to put up with now their labor has been extracted but the money they were promised would be put aside in exchange for that labor has -- whoopsie! -- all been spent to give tax cuts to the wealthy and underwrite a variety of other catastrophically bad Conservative social and martial experiments.

Maybe you're old enough and Liberal enough to remember that waaaaay back in the Olden Days, when a man named "George W. Bush" was President, even hinting that the gummint should put neither massive wars nor massive tax cuts on the national credit card (much less doing both of these spectacularly reckless things at the same fucking time) was considered Liberal Treason and Heresy against the Dear Leader by the very same fuckwads in funny little hats who are now suddenly Born Again Fiscal Hawks.

Now that a Black Kenyan Socialist is in the White House.

Now that Thor's Mighty Deficit Hammer can once again be wielded to beat the crap out of whichever of their favorite scapegoats is on the menu today.
