My addition to the title was supposed to be "(Fool Me Once...Oh go ahead I'll fall for it again-Republicans)" but it wouldn't all fit.
Pretending to care about the deficit -- created exclusively by their own profligate spending -- Democrats demanded that Bush agree to a "balanced budget" package with both spending cuts and tax increases.
In June 1990, Bush did so, agreeing to tax hikes in defiance of his "read-my-lips, no-new-taxes" campaign pledge.
Again, Democrats, being Democrats, produced no spending cuts, and within two years the increased federal spending had led to a doubling of the deficit.
Coming attractions: Deja vous all over again.
