Who Is The Whiny Nine Year Old Here?

A while ago, then-GOP National Chair Michael Steele said - and this is an exact quote:  "You have absolutely no reason - none - to trust our words or our actions at this point."

In today's Star Tribune, noted GOPer apologist Jason Lewis demonstrates this continues to be true.  I'd fact-check Jason, but what's the point?  It's not like pointing out (once again) that Reagan said "facts are stupid things" and GOPers live it will really change their deceitful ways.  No, today Jason whipped out something that needs to simply be mocked, ridiculed and scorned:  Jason calling the pot black.  Here's what he wrote:

"The glorified mob, from Athens to New York, is threatening social instability if it doesn't get what it wants (as Chris Christie once pointed out, this trait is also quite prevalent among 9-year-olds), but it will bring about only the economic chaos it pretends to oppose." (emphasis added)

Earth to Jason; earth to Jason!  Republicans gave Wall Street Banksters everything - EVERYTHING - they wanted, and the results are not only the economic chaos we are still in, but driving the world's economic system to the brink of meltdown.

When reading Lewis, and Kersten too, it's pretty easy to tell who are the whiny 9 year olds demanding everything they want - it's the less-regulation/no regulation, "my way or the highway" GOP.

Gentle Readers may recall GOPers - like the whiny, (mentally) 9 year old Lewis - ranting about their belief in "free markets" and "competition" and what wonderful things that "competition" will do for the economy.  Well, remember those words while we take a look at the results of their deeds:

Only a fool would believe what GOPers say - and what their apologists, like Jason Lewis and Katherine Kersten, write.

Jason Lewis is simply today's example of:  "You Couldn't Trust The GOP Then, You Still Can't Now, And Tomorrow Won't Be Any Different."
