Republican Congressman Joe Walsh is allegedly a dead-beat dad according to his ex-wife who is fighting to get 9 years worth of child support. This is ironic because Walsh has been a harsh critic of President Obama and government spending. Cenk Uygur explains.

  • Joe Walsh is a total asshole! He's willing to dick ride the government but not bother to take care of his own kids, putting money toward a campaign he's guaranteed to not win....loser ass deadbeat father!

  • Um. . . my wife and I never missed a penny in child support for her kids once. in 10 years of paying.

  • I think his wife has the financial troubles...

  • If he needs a calculator to figure what he owes, he might try the DeadBeat Spreadsheet.

  • @rza1m - Indeed. Politicians are so bad these days you have to measure them in "Which one was the least harmful" terms. Very sad and infuriating. I just think Clinton was the "least harmful" President since Nixon, not that Clinton was very good.

  • @A86 It's a sad state of affairs when the government is unable to balance the federal budget let alone the deficit.

  • @rza1m - He left with a federal budget surplus but still helped increase the national debt (not the same thing). But, Clinton did increase the national debt by the lowest margin of any US President since the 70s.

  • @A86 I thought Clinton left office with a surplus?

  • @Mxyzptlk562 LOL
