Fiscal Shock - NYTimes.com - Boehner - Boner rides into the house on the false promise of deficit busting

I was going to be snarky all the way here, but actually let’s be serious: the gullibility of much of the media establishment on all this amounts to journalistic malpractice..

Republicans have, after all, been the party of fiscal irresponsibility since 1980; the GW Bush administration confirmed, if anyone was in doubt, that unfunded tax cuts are now in the party’s DNA.

Thank you Krugman for yet again pointing out the truth behind the GOP rhetoric. All the GOP cares for is Big Business. We need to have a congress that looks out for the people (not Big Business) and we need journalists that do their jobs and report on what's really going on.
