And keep side-stepping away from the fact that the OP is wrong.
Govt spending has slowed far below the rates of repub admins.
But I realize the facts are like kryptonite to you guys and you will blather out any kind of BS to avoid the unsavory truth about your "fiscal conservatives"...
1.4% for Obama, show me any admin that can match that.
I do agree with your statement that repubs make reality out of fantasy.. I just call it "lying" though.
Thx
First, not attributing the 2009 budget at least partly to Obama is completely disingenuous. The stimulus affected the 2009 budget and that was purely the product of Obama/D's. They also passed a lot of additional spending too under that period. That was $1 trillion and clearly 2009 should be given mostly to Obama(and note, Bush was a lame duck by then anyways). AND the Democratic Congress exploded the deficit under Bush. It was $150 billion before the Dems took over in 2007, and they tripled it to $450 billion for FY2008. Then, the genius triple-D trifecta more than doubled it to $1 trillion. Second, even if I do accept your attributions, it still shows Obama has a horrible spending record because he started out with a
record high level of government spending and he maintained it and even added to it! That's insane. Your logic is like saying if I gain 50 pounds a year for 3 years, I'm "making progress" if I go down to gaining 40 pounds a year. No, it's going even further in the wrong direction. You're increasing the deficit and the debt.
Under Obama, the debt's increased faster than any President ever. That's a fact you can't deny. Another fact you can't deny is that more Republicans support a balanced-budget amendment than Democrats. By definition, a party that supports a balanced-budget amendment supports smaller deficits and the party opposed supports bigger deficits.

Notice, that they include the preceding year
in each case... do you want them to make an exception for Bush2?
And to the bold, let's see your "facts" that can't be denied.
I posted mine, let's see yours, if you would be so kind.
Other than that, just sounds like more unfounded baloney blather... back up your "facts".
Oh, and your "fat" analogy... it's more like you put 300 pounds on over 30 years, then you wake up one morning and say "Oh damn!" and now you think going on a "crash" diet of celery and nothing more is in order...
