Compare and Contrast: Your Taxpayer Dollars vs. Partisan Politics

Here's a fun exercise: go to this site, part of the US Treasury department, and scroll to the bottom of the page. Pay special attention to this quote:

"America has a choice: It can continue to grow the economy and create new jobs as the President's policies are doing; or it can raise taxes on American families and small businesses, hurting economic recovery and future job creation."

Now go to this site, part of the Republican party's website, and scroll to the bottom of the page. Pay special attention to this quote in the second-to-last paragraph:

"America has a choice: It can continue to grow the economy and create new jobs as the President's polices are doing; or it can raise taxes on American families and small businesses, hurting economic recovery and future job creation."

Now, compare and contrast! The difference: the first quote was paid for with your taxpayer dollars! That's right, my friends, all that money that you sent the government this month, now you know where it went - to pay for that website.

I now return you to your regularly-scheduled program.
