What many of you really don't like about it, is that the shoe fits.

What should baby Bush have blamed on Clinton? He inherited a sound economy, sound finances...

No he didnt.. Please become educated before you post again..

See that 2001 drop, which happened for 2 quarters in a row? Thats a RECESSION, and Bush took office 1st quarter 2001..

I do note a difference because Bush understood he was the commander in chief, and responsible for the economy. I dont recall Bush ever blaming Clinton, but I guess thats the difference between a leader, and a community organizer.

Sweetheart,

Wow. I just tried to be nice to you and after posting a response to you, this post is what I found...

If you read my many posts, you'll discover that I'm not unaware of how our country has gotten into debt.

Our country is in trouble because Washington refuses to work together on problems.

Neither party has the answers but laying down the axes and rolling up their sleeves, we might actually find some way to make things better for every American.

btw -- you said, "your life is nearing the end". Sometimes wish I was older... as you also said, "You grew up in better times"... Now, because of a democrat, no matter what happens to you, you're always going to have health insurance.
In response to your last post, my screen name is not One World Citizen....

But, you'll be happy to know that I've had other small minded "christians" on city data "straighten me out"...
One even tried to make my screen name into some kind of cult name.

Just so you know, I actually attended a christian Bible College. In my life, I've spent time working with people less fortunate.

but...

The Republican party is full of self righteous, closed minded people like you who talk about their God and use judging, name calling and screaming at other people as a defense for their lack of compassion. That is exactly why nothing gets done in Washington. That is also why so many "lefties" want nothing to do with your God.

Unfortunately, I voted Republican for many years. I know exactly what I'm talking about.

You really should visit City Data's Christianity Forum. It sounds as though you'd fit in well over there.

But, dear,... in just a few short posts you've earned a coveted spot on my Ignore List.

Have a blessed day!

Hm, what exactly did I blame on Bush? I don't remember
Nor did I say that the good economy and balanced budget were Clinton's merit alone, I just asked what Bush could have blamed on Clinton...

Nice chart on the budget:

Topic isnt about you, its about Obama placing blame and you claiming Bush had nothing to blame on Clinton.

If you are going to link to a chart that comes from the CBO.. Link to the CBO charts.. not ones that ignore VERY important facts.. The chart ignores intragovernmental borrowing, which ran DEFICITS during those imaginary surplus years.. The ONLY way to view a surplus is by IGNORING other deficits and lying.

Even better chart, "Federal Budget Deficit as a PERCENTAGE OF GDP"..
http://www.heritage.org/research/features/budgetChartbook/Images/debt-deficits_05-2-850.jpg (broken link)

But percentages of a budget is NOT real dollars..

Check out
The Myth of the Clinton Surplus

I mean seriously, do you think I havent seen the imaginary claims of surpluses before?

I have no health care and i do not want the government to be in my business period.We are in this mess because of free entitlements[SSI,MEDICARE]that is bankrupting this country. Health care needs reform but not 2700 pages of pork and 1 yr of wasted time.I wonder how much tax-payer money has been wasted on this so far. At 2700 pages for each Congress-person,want to be political correct they killed a hell of a lot of TREES...LOL LOL LOL...WHERE ARE THE TREE-HUGGERS WHEN YOU NEED THEM? You have to cut taxes to promote growth its been proven to work and live within your means something they don't understand.Please don't wish your life away,old age comes around fast enough,being in pain every day is no fun .Besides why would you want the government to run anything they lose money...Amtrak,Medicare,Social Security?Now they are robbing SS to pay the bills & interest on these Chinese loans we will never get out of this crippling debt.
