New Republican word of the week: Trickle Down Liberalism via Giovanni Montelli This was uttered by Joe Scarborough this morning, March 6, 2014, on his show (hes even written op-eds on the term, see below), with Congressman Jim Demint, as they talked about charter schools. msnbc/morning-joe/watch/demint-unite-the-us-around-core-set-of-ideas-184245827757 He said that Liberals have this idea of everything trickling down from the top to the bottom. Oh really Scarborough? Trickle-Down Liberalism And A Decade Of Debt - Joe Scarborough politico/blogs/joe-scarborough/2013/01/trickledown-liberalism-and-a-decade-of-debt-155359.html Did he forget that the so called father of conservatism, Ronald Reagan, along with his administration, and a Republican controlled Congress ushered in the era of trickle down economics, in a series of Omnibus budget bills? Liberals had nothing to do with it!! Joe, do you remember G.W. Bushs out of control spending on wars, two tax cuts for the wealthy, bailouts to banks with TARP, etc., that helped fuel the Great Recession? Democrats have long pushed bottom up economics, so where Joe gets this madness of comparing Democrat economic policies to Republican trickle down economics fails to register with me.
