A Republican-Pandemic; Selective-Deafness!!

The numbers below do NOT reflect the actual National Debt. Instead, they reflect the amount of the INCREASE in the National Debt during each presidential term.

> Ronald Reagan’s First Term – $656 billion increase

> Ronald Reagan’s Second Term – $1.036 trillion increase

> George H.W. Bush’s Term – $1.587 trillion increase

> Bill Clinton’s First Term – $1.122 trillion increase

> Bill Clinton’s Second Term – $418 billion increase

> George W. Bush’s First Term – $1.885 trillion increase

> George W. Bush’s Second Term – $3.014 trillion increase

> Barack Obama’s First “Year” – $1.573 trillion increase

To summarize, the National Debt increased by huge amounts under each of these presidents. The largest increase for a complete term occured during George W. Bush’s second term. The largest increse during a single year occurred during Barack Obama’s first year.

Current Obama administration projections indicate that the National Debt will increase by approximately $6.5 trillion during President Obama’s first term. If that happens, then he will obviously overtake President Bush’s record increase in the National Debt.

It is clear that the National Debt has been growing uncontrollably in recent years, regardless of which political party has been in power. To reverse this trend, we need to hold our elected officials accountable and demand that they balance the budget and reduce the National Debt.

The National Debt by President The National Debt Crisis

" The largest increse during a single year occurred during Barack Obama’s first year."

That would be the FY2009 budget, passed in 2008 when bush* was in office

Obama 1st budget is FY2010, which has a deficit lower than FY2009

Instead of playing games with #'s (and lying about who is responsible for the FY2009 budget), the following graph makes clear who is responsible for the national debt

Hers the problem s0n..........its 2010. This is a political forum..........everybody and their brother knows who's jacked the debt through the roof.

Proof?

Head on over to the RealClear homepage and check the election results

Wingnuts think the majority is always right. Like when the majority supported slavery.

ps.......alwyas note....the liberal forum member always posts up graphs and stats that dont bring the viewer up to date. In the above case..........the graph conveniently ends at 2008!!!!:funnyface:



Its almost 2011 s0ns!!!!!

Here:

FY 2009 budget was passed before Obama took office, and included TARP money

The right will just deny deny deny and then lie no matter how many cold hard facts are laid before them.


They see politics like a religion.

They will believe whatever their preacher tells them and scream that anything other than what the preacher tells them is the work of the devil.


There is no thought process left in their minds , its all about believing the earth is flat and and the sun revolves arround it.

What's worse is that they NEVER accept responsibilty. The country has been destroyed particular over the last 8 years and they are absolutely LIVID at Obama for not FIXING it within 2 year. He sucks because he hasn't FIXED it FAST ENOUGH, but bush is great for DESTROYING over the span of 8 years.

Yet they want to call themselves the Party of Personal Responsibilty....

RepubliCON$ live in Bizzaro World

Try again to get past the federal government's own data.
Jeez.
I never said the office of POTUS has "the authority"...I stated very clearly that the Fed does not function with autonomy.
Your interpretation is the Federal Reserve can, without oversight, make any decision it wants within the law.
Well technically that is true., but it is not accurate.
The mere fact that Obama has spent so incredibly high amounts of money, the federal reserve has been printing fake dollars for nearly all of Obama's admin.
You have a problem with facts that do not fit the liberal template.
I really think it is disingenuous to defend this admin because is is wrecking the country.
Bottom line. Read carefully.....The dollar is in an incredible slide. Prices for commodities and precious metals are skyrocketing because traders are hedging against the crumbling dollar. This President is solely responsible for the fall of the dollar. These are the facts. They are not in dispute.

1) You havent posted any data
2) You said Obama had the Fed print money. Now, you're backing away from it. You didn't say anything about "autonomy" until after I pwned you
3) It is true. Period. End of sentence. Only a liar like you would be unwilling to admit the obvious truth:

You lied

4) Govt spending does not affect the Feds' decision to print money
5) You have not posted facts
6) The dollars slide was mostly while bush* was president
7) Wingnuts claim their lies are not in dispute. The baseless claims are obvious lies, which is why even other wingnuts, like the far-right Heritage Foundation, disagrees with you

Moron...where the hell do you think the deficit one government spends comes from, the sky?
Of course the fed reserve must print new currency to cover deficit expenditures.
You're hanging by the thread of one word in a sentence.
Look, we're done here. It doesn't matter what you post or think. You are not in line withe facts.
The dollar is getting hammered on the currency markets. The root cause is devaluation via creation of more currency.The printing is necessary due to wild spending by the US Government.
Now you can strand in the middle of the room and scream LIAR all you like. It changes nothing. The facts are clear. You cannot stand to see the facts because the facts are not kind to the Messiah.
You should really find another hobby because you are not very good at this.
Your entire contribution to this board has been "You lied"...
No one here is interested in the rantings of an irrational hysterical angry lib.
Go bake cookies or take up knitting.

Moron...where the hell do you think the deficit one government spends comes from, the sky?

We borrow it Einstein. That's why it's called the National DEBT

the "real issue" according to who??

That above article is just the political realites related to the massive GOP gains at the state levels. No spin there............its reality. Of course......the k00ks hate to face real in their lives. Its foreign.


Heres the reality......and the "real issue".

They say a picture is worth 1,000 words ( although more like 700 in this economy!!) The reality is.......the American people think Democrats dont give a flying fcukk about the debt............

The REAL issue is what do you cut?, Lad.

I took it as a given that even people like you would understand that.

Dont worry, you dont need to worry about what to cut, people like me can decide. Lets start with Ameircorp.

AmeriCorps

Is that the best you got, wingnut?

How much does that save?

[Mr. Shaman]

Over half of the deficit we have now was there before Obama was inaugurated.

.....Everywhere, but TEX......oops!!

​

"The point, however, is that just the other day Texas was being touted as a role model (and still is by commentators who haven’t been keeping up with the news). It was the state the recession supposedly passed by, thanks to its low taxes and business-friendly policies. Its governor boasted that its budget was in good shape thanks to his “tough conservative decisions.”
