The Times publishes an editorial against the GOP’s “Pledge to America.”  Who would have guessed? <g>

Rather than address this editorial point by point, let’s just look at the Times credibility on this topic.  The Times has published a series of editorials that alternated between lobbying for more spending and complaining about spending.  You’ll recall this paper cries crocodile tears about deficit spending and debt one day and the next day pitches a fit if anyone proposes spending cuts or adhering to “pay-go” rules

Finally, if the “Pledge to America” had actually said it intended to cut Medicare, Socialist Security, and other so-called entitlement programs, which newspaper do you think would have been one of the first to rip that policy to pieces?
