Its kinda funny — how come so few people (especially those on the

thing?
Whatever your political or economic views are, it is not up to me to
tell you what to believe. However, you need to be intellectually

suits your purposes at the moment. If you do so, you best be prepared to
be charged with being intellectually dishonest, and to be categorized
as called a political hack. Or worse.
When Romney wins in 2012, I expect most of the deficit hysteria to disappear.
