Raising it to historic levels with the help Democratic majorities in Congress and then being FORCED kicking and screaming to reduce it to a level HIGHER than ever before is not really reducing anything.
it was your hero shrub who inherited a surplus from bill clinton, turned it into a record shattering $1.539 trillion dollar deficit, ad handed it off to obama, who then fixed the mess your party left him, like democrats always do.

Robert Byrd was a Klansman.
"was"
your party is endorsed by the Ku Klux Klan and the American Nazi Party.
your minority whip in congress is a guy who bragged that he was "like KKK leader david duke, but without the baggage"
you have a senator from mississippi who said she would "be in the front row" for a good ol' fashioned lynching.
you have a governor in florida who kicked off his campaign by calling his black opponent a monkey.
your president called for the execution of the completely exonerated central park five a month before election day.
you even have a congressman who actively supports avowed nazis like goldy faith. your party did nothing about it until he blatantly questioned why white supremacy was a bad thing. then all they did was strip him of committee assignments without asking him to resign.
your party supported a guy who, when he was 32 years old, lurked around shopping malls and custody hearings (custody hearings FFS) to hit on 13 year old girls, take them out to the woods, get them drunk, and rape them. in his defense, he claims he always had the mothers' permission.
but you already knew that.
