Minnick a deficit hawk? Um, not so much

One-note Walt Minnick, who's always carping about the deficit being too high, has now signed a letter urging Democratic House Leadership to continue the tax cuts that benefit the wealthy. Extending tax cuts for the wealthy is estimated to cost around $700 billion over the next decade. The deficit is "OMFG WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE," unless it's to help rich folks like Walt avoid paying their fair share of taxes.
