And here you go - the worst economic downturn since the 1930s was not caused by systematically undermining the protections that kept investment bankers from gambling the economy away or by allowing Wall Street to take insane risks with our money for even more insane bonuses.
No, it was because the Democrats got elected in 2006 and - stick with me here - even with a Republican president in the White House (who had done his best to personally bugger the economy to bits), the *prospect* of tax cuts expiring in 2011 caused the economy to roll over and die.
We knew guys like Norquist are liars, we knew they're not really very bright - in fact they're dumb as hell - we knew they think we're stupider than roadkill, but really how long do they think they can keep pulling this shit???
