Fiscal Responsibility? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You just have to sit back and appreciate the hypocrisy involved in the GOP voting enmasse against Pay Go rules yesterday. The DCCC didn't let them slide on it either.

House Democrats passed a budget rule called PAYGO today that requires new entitlement spending bills passed during this Congress to be deficit neutral -- meaning paid for. Under the statutory pay-as-you-go rule, theoretically a tax cut would be offset by a spending cut and a spending increase by a tax increase.

PAYGO passed 265 to 166, with all but 24 Republicans voting against it and all but 13 Democrats supporting it. A press release was distributed to media outlets in 40 GOP districts, including party leaders John Boehner (Ohio), Eric Cantor (Va.), Mike Pence (Ind.) and Pete Sessions (Texas).

"Today, when given a chance to match all her tough talk about fiscal responsibility with a vote on restoring pay-as-you-go policy, Representative Mary Bono Mack just said no," DCCC spokesman Ryan Rudominer said in a release to the California Republican's district. "Representative Bono Mack's vote against Statutory PAYGO after all her rhetoric about the need for fiscal discipline proves yet again that Bono Mack will say one thing at home and do the opposite in Washington."

For anybody who is a politics junkie this really isn't all that surprising, but I think independents will be might surprised to find out just how big of hypocrites the GOOPers in the House are when it comes to fiscal responsibility.

Now the question is, will any of the Villagers even bother to point this vote out?
