Some folks apparently don't know anything about basic economics. If you think the economy is bad now, or has been the past 8 years, it would have been10x worse if the deficit was reduced during a recession.
By the way, I don't care what your political leanings are, but I hate when people argue based on ignorance.
Says the deficit.
So how is our national debt 19 trillion, son to be 20 trillion? And wasn't it obama railing about GWB ruining our young people's future by running the debt to 8 trillion?![]()
The budget shortfall fell to its lowest level since 2007 during the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, the Treasury Department said Thursday. The deficit declined 9% from the prior year to $439 billion--around 2.5% of gross domestic product and below the average the U.S. has run over the past 40 years.
pesky facts...

The Ncaa beat him to it.....![]()
My apologies, I meant to quote gracetoyou's post.Where did you get that dribble from my post on how many zeroes in a trillion? Ignorant?

With a shooting form like this, is it any wonder that Barry's NCAA picks are the kiss of death?

In before the lock. But what the heck, Trump 2016
Unfortunately Kentucky is one of the dumbest states in an already dumb country. Who would imagine they'd be republicans
What do you expect from the worst President in 100 years?
Oh geez do you have any idea how weird that is gonna be when me and my wife do our usual Christmas DVDs and in Home Alone 2 we could potentially see the President-Elect giving Kevin directions in the hotel????
Now how he intends to persuade the swing states/voters in the general election that is going to be a tough job.
He wouldn't be the first President to have appeared in movies before being elected.
If people are dumb enough to vote for that disgusting excuse for a woman, H.Clinton then nobody can convince them not to.
Says the national debt growing from $9 trillion to $19 trillion the last 8 years.
Think about that... from George Washington to George Bush $9 trillion. Barak Obama in 8 years = $10 trillion.
That's who says for one
Newsflash. There hasn't been a penny spent by the Federal government since 2010 that hasn't been approved by the GOP.
Like him or hate him, Obama sure as hell just called the GOP's confirmation bluff and nominated about as qualified
of a centrist candidate for the supreme court that could possibly be found...he's on the list of a lot of Republicans.
They'll either confirm the guy, or they'll undoubtedly face a far more liberal choice if Hillary takes over, and then
what will they say? They will have painted themselves into another corner.
GOP needs to get its act together and take the party back from the extremists before it's too late and fractured.
Shame Kaisich was not received better, he could have been a bridge to unity.

arguing government spending is something neither side can win. Both have done it, and will continue to do it. What can be argued is that our National DEBT is beyond ridiculous and who is to blame for it.

Our political system is beyond unity. It needs to be blown up and rebuilt with real people not career politicians.
And this dumb state has been mostly controlled by democrats for 100 years, so....Chicago, IL, and Detroit, MI...what do they have in common?
Both have been controlled by democrats for the better part of 50 years. Would you like to tell us how that has worked out for them?

Exactly!!Obama has taken our debt to levels never seen before. Its on him.
He told Bush he was un-American for the debt when he was in office. lol. Thats how much a a dip ish the guy really is.
Forgetting us libertarians.. Although I vote Republican because we have no more Ron Paul's to run..This is a great moment for all UK fans. We can all come together, Republican, Democrat and celebrate this.
2/3rd of voters who failed to finish high school voted a way you probably do not want to acknowledge lest it disturb your stereotype.Unfortunately Kentucky is one of the dumbest states in an already dumb country. Who would imagine they'd be republicans
True, but until term limits are the law of the land, without a revolution of some sort, that's not going to happen.
My view is Kaisich is the only candidate who can take away enough votes from the left while keeping the right intact.
Trump or Cruz cannot do that, they are hated within their own party.
Exactly!!
Not that you asked but here is my take on all that.
Kaisich seems to be a great guy, but he's about 25-30 years too late. He would could walked over by every politician in Washington and elsewhere.
Cruz, you are correct. The left hates him and the right probably hates him more.
Trump, politicians on the left and right hate him. He is the only guy in the field that can shake things up and not just talk about doing it. If a career politician is running for office, they don't have my vote. They are all liars and in it for self profit, not the job. So until enough non-career politicians prove me wrong, I'll back them.
Did you see this asshole delegate in one of the Dakotas say that we don't elect our officials, that the delegates do?! THAT is why we need someone to clean house and start the process of remodeling or political system.
