To those wild spending, much vaunted moral guardian Republicans, their Halloween celebration is all tricks and no treats.

The other evening I listened to a tricky talk on TV by glib talking Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison of Texas.  As I heard her rant on about what a good job Republicans had done for the U.S. economy I thought that, in all fairness, Kay Bailey should instantly change her name to Kay Baloney Hutchison.

It took a lot of gall to declare that the Bush-led Republican robots had helped the U.S.A. economically.

The wild spending spree of the unneeded Iraq War with the ever-ascending $350 billion ever rising price tag debt represents the biggest national debit in the history of planet earth.
