SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP! I am so tired of these liberal references:
- eight years of failed policies
- the failed Bush years
- eight years of Bush economics
- get us out of this mess that Bush created
Our economic woes have NOTHING to do with Bush. The massive spending at the END of his term was based on the pack of lies our “best financial minds” sold to Bush and the Democratic-led Congress. We were in the midst of a post 9-11 economic recovery and were at nearly full employment two years ago. Give me the Bush economy ANY DAY over Obamanomics.

I’m curious to know at what point will the Pickpocket-in-Chief start to take some responsibility for the economy? My guess, when the economy starts to turn on its own despite his interference. These are interesting times.
I’m an idiot? Your passion is obvious, but your lack of facts is scary. Did you vote with that brain?
1) Fiscal year? Ha. Does it take you ten minutes to realize that a mugger is kicking your ass? Does it take you an entire year to ruin your personal credit? Do you believe that you aren’t broke if you still have checks left? This is Obama’s budget, it is his plan, it is his baby, and it is as ugly as all hell. You don’t need to wait until next year to see the effects of his leadership.
2) You don’t like my chart? Take your complaint to Obamas Congressional Budget Office, since IT is the office that created it. Pay closer attention to the chart, look at the details. The red numbers are the CBO estimates, the PINK numbers are OBAMA’s OWN estimates.
3) Unemployment WAS near full two years ago (well, maybe closer to three years now). When you get down to 4-4.5% unemployment, you are basically at full employment. 20th century British economist William Beveridge stated that an unemployment rate of 3% was full employment. Other economists have provided estimates between 2% and 7%, depending on the country, time period, and the various economists’ political biases. Ok, so maybe 4& unemployment was not full, but it was damned close.
4) Cost of War. Basic Math: $12B a month x 12 months = $144B a year. When did the war start? Here’s just one of the many links that shows the costs of the war. In case your math is as good as your chart reading skills, we have yet to hit a trillion dollars. http://costofwar.com/
Thanks for taking the time to visit my site. I welcome your misguided yet passionate desire to prove yet again that Liberals truly are clueless when it comes to facts, research and the truth.
