Fiscal Responsibility

Republicans always claimed to be the party that would reign in federal spending and keep "big government" off our backs. Well, a Bridge to Nowhere later, we know what happened.

President Bush didn't veto a single spending bill, congressional Republicans feasted on pork, and the federal debt -- our collective debt -- exploded by a couple trillion dollars.

All of this is helpfully recalled in this new video from the House Democrats released today as part of a Democratic effort to get control over the federal budget after six years of out-of-control spending by President Bush and congressional Republicans.
