Obviously neither side cares about a deficit as long as the things they want are getting through.
The right didn't want the healthcare bill passed so they complained about how we couldn't afford it.
The left didn't care that we couldn't afford it as long as they got what they wanted by passing the healthcare bill.
The right wanted tax cuts all across the board, not just for middle and lower class even if we can't afford it.
The left didn't want tax cuts and complained about how we couldn't afford it.
Before you get all high and mighty you should realize that both sides play this game.
