Lying leftist half truth ALERT!
"Every month Washington spends billion of dollars (blah, blah) which swells the nation's largest budget and budget deficit in its history. (more blah, blah, blah)"

As a percent of our GDP, the deficit is NOT the biggest in history - period. This tiny fact has only been stated about a gazillion times by the likes of Fred Barnes and Michael Barone. Ergo any article that leads off with this big lie in the first paragraph isn't worth a shi-ite.

LOL, I wouldn't be calling anyone from Mises a leftist. Secondly, the report did not say as a percent of our GDP, just that the deficit was the largest. Just as the $2.6 trillion budget from the party of 'limited government' is the largest budget in this nation's history. But don't worry. This budget and deficit will pale in comparison in a few years when we have to start paying for the pill bill passed and signed by 'limited government' conservatives

YES! Damn that radical left-wing Mises Institute to hell! (/sarc)

This tiny fact has only been stated about a gazillion times by the likes of administration apologists Fred Barnes and Michael Barone.

Barnes, particularly is beyond sycophancy!
