    You know what I'm going to say. This is dishonest.

    Let's just take the first item, which like all of them is headlined "Dirty secrets Washington liberals don't want you to know".

    It claims that senior government officials racked up $146 million in upgrades.

    Yet if you google this issue, you'll find that

    and that the audit covered flights
    Now, who was in charge of the executive branch in 2005-2006? I don't think it was the liberals.

    Now for the last one, about how we spent $2.6 million teaching Chinese prostitutes how to drink responsibly....

    Here's the actual story:

    Oh, and your link says:
    Well, when do you suppose that grant was made? Yep, in 2008. Shame on Obama and Congress for failing to cut spending by the liberal Bush administration.

    Good website, ABM. This is one of the reasons we're so far in debt and have outrageous taxes.

    Why does it matter who was in charge? Either it's a good idea or it's not.

    Oh, what the heck, one more. The $500K to paint a salmon on a plane? That was an earmark engineered by those famous liberals from Alaska, Republican senator Ted Stevens and Republican representative Don Young. During the liberal Bush administration, of course.

    Are we starting to see a pattern here?

    Now, what can we conclude about the Heritage Foundation, which seems to have put together this little bundle of lies and misinformation?

    So if I say it is all Ed O's fault, that's perfectly ok? Doesn't matter who we blame, as long as it is actually a problem?

    Maybe if the crops fail we could burn a witch or two?

    You can say it, sure. It doesn't undermine whether it's a problem or not.

    No one suggested those things aren't problems. [Edit: well, actually the prostitute thing doesn't sound like a problem]

    It's not clear to me why you are defending lying about the source of the problems.

    lol really? the website is trying to bash liberals...if a bunch of these "facts" are the fault of republicans, it matters to the credibility of the link, and the link is the crux of the original post...so....really?

    I think the website bashes federal politicians in general.

    I guess if you overlook the headline in huge type at the top of every page, maybe.

    "dumb republicans all feast on feces and worship satans cock"

    and then a bunch of pictures of republicans cramming rolled up bibles up their asses, and sucking off gun barrels

    would be bashing all politicians too

    Whether it's true, or not, I've always loved playing the Conrad Dobler part. :gasoline: :angel:

    So...are you Republicans critical of the Republican Congress and President for doing these things?

    Let's hear it then.

    Who said they are Republicans... The right-wing/conservative side of things is splintering into Republican, Tea Party & Libertarian. While the Tea Party people & Libertarians don't like being grouped in with the Republicans or each other, the sad thing is that since Tea Party & Libertarian ideology is vague & rather impossible to implement, they have to live vicariously through the well funded Republicans.
