Barack Obama is 100% right and NOBODY can dispute otherwise
strawmen are funny.
What's really funny is that when Dumbocrats lose a debate based on facts, they falsely accuse the debate of being "strawman" or the debater as being "racist".
Can you please describe what was "strawman" about my post? It took Barack Obama's exact words and applied it to the exact issue (raising the national debt) which he was referring to in his words.

Hi Rottweiler: I have yet to see party leaders on any side talk about paying taxpayers back for past misspending or abuses, but only blame each other for spending more of future taxes.
So unless they talk about holding the actual govt leaders and corporations responsible for where our money had gone all this time that got us over our heads in debt, and talk about paying it back over time, then ALL these arguments are distractions from real solutions.
I wouldn't necessarily call it a strawman. more like using each other as whipping boys.
You take a statement, and use that to whip or slap someone around with it.
And it does nothing to solve the real problem of why can't we hold people responsible
for paying back money they abused their govt or corporate positions to spend
that we can show weren't lawful or Constitutional, but unethical conflicts of interest
and/or weren't the most effective and efficient means to achieve tasks,
and thus VIOLATED the Code of Ethics for Govt Service for federal govt:
ethics-commission.net
We need to start holding the specific parties responsible who spent our tax money,
set up federal reserve accounts to lend against this debt and charge it to the wrongdoers not to us,
while using those credits to pay for the work and create jobs FIXING whatever was neglected or broken
while the money went into pockets of private interests, conflicting contractors, or campaign contributors or whatever it went.
We have enough lawyers and lawschools in the country furious with both parties,
we can surely form teams to go after all of them, pay law students/interns on commission
to collect millions in paybacks on our behalf as defrauded/abused taxpayers forced into slavery to work for govt,
and not submit to the insanity of paying any more taxes if our money we already spent could have paid to fix the problems already.
why keep charging us more for these mistakes they haven't even paid us back from the past, thinking they are immune or can't be held accountable?
They can be if we treat them like employees that work for us.
Either fix the problem or we will hire people to fix it and charge it back to you for how much you owe us.
Period.
Not taking lame statements out of context here and there,
and blame this person or that party, back and forth which does nothing.
