Pretty funny to see it in action. Media constantly does it.


Then there's the "hide the football" strategy and the "look, a squirrel" strategy.

The Experts™. Admiralty Law. Who's the Captain now?

Round up the usual suspects. Wascally Republicans with their fiscal responsibility.
Mr. Burns. I think I see where they got the idea for The Simpsons.
Be Afraid, say the Central Bankers. The Grim Reapers are harvesting.

Article here: archive.ph (WSJ - no bias here. nah. Just great conservative reporting. LOL!)

News Crap says Republicans will be to blame for starving granny after letting her go. Because Central Bankers must collect their interest on the paper they created from nothing. It's Harvest Time. Because they have to stop inflation. You know, the inflation that was created from the paper they printed to deal with the problems they created.

As the Federal Reserve rapidly raises interest rates to combat the highest inflation in decades, a slowing economy could also result in lower tax receipts going forward.
With Republicans set to assume control of the House next year, the federal government’s finances could once again become a political flashpoint. Some Republicans have said they could refuse to raise the nation’s borrowing limit without an agreement on broad cuts to the federal budget, including potentially Social Security and Medicare.
Such a debate could bring the U.S. to the brink of defaulting on its debt, a feature of clashes between Republicans and Democrats during the Obama presidency. During the Trump era, Republicans largely let go of their concerns about government spending and reached multiple agreements with Democrats to raise the borrowing limit without imposing deep spending cuts.
