Political Factoid
By mid-2013, the "spendthrift"
conservatives in the GOP, who
had been slashing spending
everywhere they could,
... were starting to blame
things on "President
Obama's spending
cuts."
- Missile test failures
(GOP claimed Obama cut missile
shield research spending and that
caused the failure.)
- Flood, hurricane, tornado, fire,
and oil shipment disasters
(e.g., Gov. Rick Scott (R-FL)
and other GOP governors complained
that the Coast Guard and National
Guards had not filled sand bags
in anticipation of hurricanes
and flooding.)
- The collapse of foreign
governments
(e.g., GOP demanded Obama restore
order in Egypt.)
- ... etc.
