There WAS that little thing called 9/11 that had a teensy weensy bit to do with it, eh??

And Clinton's surplus came from the Dot Com bubble.

So, there are huge outliers on both Administrations. Hardly reliable enough data to draw the kind of conclusion that Michty wants to draw.

I could easily make the case that it was Clinton's Republican Congress that was responsible for the huge surplus and Bush's Democrat Congress that was responsible for the huge deficits..

My tongue in cheek point to Michty was that Obama has increased our debt more than all Presidents before him COMBINED...

This is simply an undeniable fact...

I won't even bother pointing out the loss of US Prestige across the world, thanks to Obama's so-called "leadership"...

Did you see today's news? America ran a surplus last month, of over $100 billion.

Looks like the deficit wars during budget season will be a bit different this year than the past few, eh?

:-)

Michale -

micthy's talking about Dubya Bush. Remember? Clinton raises taxes... big surplus! Bush enters office, lowers taxes... big deficits!

Go back and read his comment again. Hint: the "3 terms" were Reagan and GHW Bush...

The cads!!!! The MORONS!!! The... The.... ASSHOLES!!!

How DARE they actually look out for their own interests...

Why... Why!!! They are as bad as politicians!!!!!!

{/sarcasm}

:D

But this doesn't mean anything because of how stupid and gullible a big chunk of your country is.

That would actually MEAN something if I didn't know that the only reason you consider them "gullible" is because they disagree with you. :D

before you went back and elected another Republican to blow it up (again).

Obama's a Republican!!!????

Who knew!!??? :D

Ahhh michty, my old friend michty... :D

Michale

CW,
As when you posted this originally, I will repeat that % GDP terms (i.e. encompassing the time value of money) Obama has absolutely obliterated your deficit compared to what he inherited.

But this doesn't mean anything because of how stupid and gullible a big chunk of your country is. Remember that after 3 terms of Republicans blowing up the deficit, the last Democrat President fixed it, before you went back and elected another Republican to blow it up (again). So your deficit is sorted as an issue... until 2016.

No red lines???

Amazing....

Michale

Naaw...

The evidence that supports the theory is simply too overwhelming to come to any other conclusion..

:D

Michale

Or maybe there is no "liberal" media :)

In an initiative aimed at rooting out future leakers and other security violators, President Barack Obama has ordered federal employees to report suspicious actions of their colleagues based on behavioral profiling techniques that are not scientifically proven to work, according to experts and government documents.

How ironic that it is Emperor Barack The First, Savior of Democracy, Democrats And The World In General would be the "leader" to bring about 1984, eh??

Michale

Licking their wounds from all of Obama's scandals and wondering how they could have been so duped for so long... :D

Michale

The key word is "known"

My guess is that it's highly unlikely facts like this will ever see the light of day in the "liberal" media

Where is that "liberal" media anyways?
