Up next in the crosshairs...
...teachers, police and firefighters. Did your representative vote in favor of them, or did they want them laid off?

What does a loyal Republican do when faced with a bill that will reduce the deficit? You guessed it - whatever the party tells him to do. And since their #1 mission is to obstruct the workings of government to make the President look bad, they'll vote against fiscal conservancy and prefer to throw 300,000 teachers, police and firefighters off the job.

Before Bush came into office, nearly every single state had record surpluses and their budgets were balanced. After The Bush Recession, nearly every single state ran a deficit (other possible titles: "why do the Republicans hate Firefighters and Teachers", "when trickle-down becomes pour-down").

Also, since it's an election year, another old enemy gets attacked: science.
This time the character assassination target for conservatives is ... none other than Albert Einstein.
Yes, in their inexplicable "war on science", they are turning some of their propaganda cannons against perhaps the greatest scientific mind of the 20th century. If you can't understand something, it must be the work of the devil. Yea, stay classy, conservatives.
