Middle-Class Life Under Bush Republicans: Less Affordable and Less Secure

In addition to tightening the squeeze on families, Republican policies have made our entire nation less secure economically. Republicans have pushed to increase our debt to nearly $9 trillion and have insisted on spending billions of dollars every year on budget-busting tax breaks for special interests and multi-millionaires. Just this week, the Republican Congress protected $5.1 billion worth of corporate tax loopholes for Big Oil companies, but failed to extend deductions for college tuition, teachers’ expenses, and the savers credit that help millions of middle class families.

Middle-Class Life Under Bush Republicans: Less Affordable and Less Secure (http://democrats.senate.gov/dpc/dpc-new.cfm?doc_name=fs-109-2-68 - broken link)
And we're doing much better now.

When will the Democrats take responsibility? They've had control of the House and Senate since 2007 and control of the White House since 2009. This article is obsolete and just proves that the Democrats are full of it.

Right after you list when paygo was passed, and the laws which were passed since its inception which complied with the law...

Can you name ONE bill passed by Democrats which complied with THEIR OWN RULE? JUST ONE!!! Dont talk to me about hypocrits because surely Washington is full of them.. if you think your side is exempt, your out of your mind..

I will give you this one. The Democrats are pretty honest about not giving a hoot about the deficit. They're even worst than the Republicans were, as far as spending goes.
