DeMint got schooled...

[babylonsister]

and I'm pretty sure this has gone viral. It's all over cable and FB...

1. It is a great line no doubt, but

how much money is being thrown away money on useless wars and lost on unaccountable spending at the Pentagon?

[madashelltoo]

2. And, who set up those policies

that allowed so much waste? Was DeMint a part of the government spending on wars and unaccountable Pentagon spending? That spending bolsters their contributors and they will never stop doing it. So, the occasional road is at least something tangible Americans can see that their money was spent on. They're fighting tooth and nail to keep those spending practices while cutting help to the very people who have contributed and could contribute one day.

3. DeMint is a king of the Tealiban

You expected truth and logic instead of propaganda and demagoguery? He's a douche bag too, but to say he's a douche bag teabagger would be redundant as is with the entire GOP. Not one honest broker among them. Purging them from the landscape would clear the air and get us out of the depression. Republicans depress the economy and the national psyche. Misery loves company.

4. My response would have been: Well, since you admit it, why don't you resign?

And let someone more competent take your place?? You've been in DC forever, and obviously are too dumb or too crooked to do your job right.

5. It's what happens when double-entry bookeeping takes hold

Maintainence of capital equipment and real property is a straight expense - if you keep deferring it, nothing bad happens - for a while.

6. Another oppurtunity to dis-inform,

2 Billion is a rubbish number obviously meant to cover an estimated 20 Billion lost through stockholder defection and other collateral damage to the economy.
It would be different if the JPM was the sole loser but the Taxpayer is on the hook again and the Fed will just loan them more to cover it at .01% interest.
If You or I tried that shit then We would be in Jail instead of the Senate kissing Our ass and pandering for more campaign donation's.
Hopefully this footage will surface again as the election draws near.

7. I had a LOT of money. Then I "lost" it feeding my kids.

Stewart is a treasure.

8. I don't have any kids but I still lose money!

you know, paying for RENT and FOOD!

9. Wanna cut $2 billion, DeMint?

End the wars. Stop paying outrageous prices to military contractors. Stop putting marijuana possessors in jail. Stop subsidizing the most profitable corporations in human history - the oil companies. Stop the bleeding of tax revenues by ending tax havens in Switzerland, The Cayman Islands and anywhere else that money is going outside America.

THAT's where the money is "lost".

11. let's add

they should all take a pay cut like the rest of us

[gopiscrap]

10. Excellent

[progressoid]

12. Demint was thinking of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

[SCantiGOP]

13. the only good news about Demint

Is that he is saying he won't run again when his term expires in in 2014. of course, that is probably because he thinks he is going to run for President.

[Quantess]

14. Oh goody!

Imagining DeMint as president is just surreal. Bleh.
