REPUBLICANS AND DEFICITS



Remember when Republicans
Were the party of fiscal responsibility
Telling the nation to control
Its monetary prolificacy

Then came the Bush-Cheney tax cuts
In two thousand one and three
Eliminating the balanced budgets
Inherited from the opposing party

Now there’s DJ
Addicted to bankruptcy and debt
What was good for a businessman
Would be even better for a President

He and his toady Republicans
Stampeded to cut taxes
Adding trillions to the deficit
Not carrying about consequences

On the other side of the aisle
Democrats are not without blame
Refusing to control spending
Imagining a world of no fiscal pain
