Can't quote AK-47...as I've had him ON IGNORE for a long time. He's right, not "$7 Trillion"... actually closer to $8 Trillion... I erred on the conservative so as not to be called a "sensationalist exaggerator".
Obviously you cant count and again forget to mention that Bush left Obama a trillion dollar deficit,2 wars, numerous new federal agencies to pay for,an economic depression,and a new medicare bill Most of Obamas spending has been on Bushs bills
quote from scataphagos: So I'll give you that it was ok for bush to run up the deficit and not for obama ... settled. Given that, Had YOU been elected this last time around, how would YOU have addressed the issues facing a new president - given the same congress to work with ???
Who said it was "OK for Bush to run up deficits [for his private little wars]"? I sure as Hell did not. And even if someone justified Bush's deficits, how many wrongs DO make a right?
NO EXCUSES.. about the "Congress he inherited" (supermajority, wasn't it?) or "the situation". Odumbo's a SHIT. An ENEMY OF AMERICA! You probably don't want to hear how I would have addressed deficits and spending on Socialistic tit-sucking parasites. I'm a Darwinist. Survival of the fittest. NOBODY IS ENTITLED TO ANYTHING EXCEPT WHAT THEY EARN FOR THEMSELVES. Provide for yourself or perish!
You really should stop saying, "we get what we want"... "we get what we deserve".. total DUMBASS TALK. Think for yourself or stop posting.
quote from scataphagos: Let me rephrase ... given the congress that ANY] new president in 2008 would have had to work with till now ... how would YOU have handled this deficit situation?? And it's fine that you're a darwinist and all that ... but you know that your beliefs could never be adopted by any government under any circumstance. Get real for a minute. I see everyone calling any sitting president all these names, but no one ... NO ONE ... offers equitable alternatives to whatever is steaming them up. If you're going to call a man out, at least be man enough to come up with a solution on how to fix why.
