By creating so much debt, did Republicans throw away our future?

Watching a 60 Minutes on America's aging infrastructure and the huge cost, I wonder if Republican threw away our future.

3 trillion in debt from the ill advised Bush Tax Cuts that Obama was blackmailed into extending.

3 trillion in debt from the Iraq fiasco.

Unknown trillions into the future taking care of many tens of thousands of young Americans maimed in Iraq.

The deregulated and shattered economy that cost trillions.

The tens of thousands of factories closed costing trillions.

The millions of jobs moved to China from 2001 to 2008 that were lost.

Have Republicans made sure we are destined to become a third world country? Has their damage been that broad?
 
Obama ran up more debt that all previous Presidents combined, more debt than anyone in all human history

Obama's in trouble, Obama Fluffers to the Kneepads!!

You bet they threw it away.

And the American people just gave them license to throw more of it away.

Why don't you move to China ? I am sure you can get one of those factory jobs.

They'll pay you and you'll no longer be collecting welfare.

A win-win.

Look at the deficit pre-Reagan (especially Carter). It was nothing compared to Reagan's historically large deficit, which is the turning point, and set up a series of deficits that would continue to double (but for Clinton).

Reagan wanted a military that cost 3x as much, but he didn't want to pay for it. He was the first conservative president to abandon pay-as-you-go. He also said that lower taxes and deregulation would create the kind of economic growth that would trickle down to the middle class in the form of jobs/benefits. And we bought it. But then he liberalized trade and the jobs trickled to China in order to give his cronies cheaper labor costs.

We swallowed poison in 1980.

On another note. Bush hid the cost of Iraq off-budget in "emergency spending". He did this to hide the costs from the American people so they would not get sticker shock. Was Obama stupid for putting the War back on the budget, so the American people could start to see the truth?

We swallowed poison in 1980, and the government has never recovered.

Pure garbage.

Clinton and Newt had us on the road to no debt (essentially cancelling Reagan's debt build up), but failed to seal the deal.

GWB really screwed us.

Except he hasn't. When do you rightards stop lying?

Debt accumulated under Obama: 7,339,513,003,993
All other presidents combined: 10,626,877,048,913

Debt to the Penny Daily History Search Application

Oh, and those are nominal figures and include the Great Recession Bush handed Obama and include Bush's budget for the first half of FY2009..

Real figures reveal...

Debt accumulated under Obama: 6,469,890,000,000
All other presidents combined: 10,062,940,000,000

Obama stopped the rise of the oceans, even before he was elected, why hasn't he fixed all these problems?

But of course, that didn't hide the cost of anything.

No, Obama is stupid for a huge long list of other reasons.

Bush didn't hide anything off budget, congress might have but Bush never had the power of the purse. Evidently you have no concept of truth.

So , you're going to say Obama good because he only created as much debt as 2/3 of the Presidents before him combined.

Are you sure that's where you want to go here?
 
It is amazing how many posters simply cannot respond to this thread sensibly.

Instead we see 'Oh bullshit!' but no one seems able to explained why.

So far, I have the score card at: rdean 10 others 0.

If just once RDean would say "Obama has made the situation worse" rather than just blaming the GOP he wouldn't be viewed as the piece of shit that he is.
