“Responsible” as in “culprit?”

Are you sure it’s not satire?

Nobody could say “mitigate the fiscal harm of his 1981 tax cut” with a straight face.

Liberal Fascist Dictionary:

Responsible: adj., one who supports increased government power, rule by the elites, higher taxes, and socialism, but pretends to support Constitutional limits on government power.

It’s called ideology. The Democrap Party is run by a triumvirate of Marxists. Compromise is not possible. These “Responsible Republicans” aka rinos are only cover, useful idiots for the Marxists.

“During the health care battle, President Obama was unable to find a single Responsible Republican to serve as a mascot. “

Even this writer understands any Republican supporting Obama would be just a symbol. What Republican in their right mind would want to be the symbol of the Republican party’s acquiescence to Socialism.

Anyone else tired of socialist American Jews telling us how wrong conservatives are?

David Frum was fired because he stepped on Kristol's toes too many times.

As for this analysis at Slate, it is a rehash of an analysis presented at the time Frum was fired, which was posted at FR uncountable times.

“....stampeded over Ronald Reagan’s veto of the largest tax increase in history to mitigate the fiscal harm of his 1981 tax cut....”

That superb example of a multi-word oxymoron aptly demonstrates the intellectual vacuity of the left.

Fiscal harm indeed. Journalists are so very......well, dumb. Oh, forgot, that’s why they became journalists whilst the rest of us were actually producing things of value.

Given our current situation, maybe a more relevant question Weisberg should ask is “who killed the responsible Democrats?”

Definition of a Responsible Republican: one whose lips are firmly glued to the posterior of a bigshot Democrat.

Good satire. I like how the link to “heretics” goes to an article on Cheney.
