8. What bullshit nonsense
"Tax cuts will keep government spending in check"

Well, you'd think. But nooooo.

"Federal tax receipts relative to the overall economy have reached their lowest level since Dwight D. Eisenhower was president, while government spending has climbed to the highest point since Bill Clinton declared the era of big government over, according to new figures released by the Congressional Budget Office."

Which of these things is bad for the economy: a "tax and spend liberal" or a "slash tax and overspend neo-conservative"?
