Day After Obama Promises to Curb Spending-Dems Pass Largest Debt Increase in History

[LibocalypseNow]

"Hope and Change" really are just simple mantras for simple minds in the end. When will more people catch onto this farce?

 

[edthecynic]

How does one pay for two wars that were financed through a tax cut without running a deficit?

Because they were financed by borrowing money from the Chinese, not via the normal budget process.....Lots and lots of stooges with (D)s by their names went for that scam too, your irrelevant mewling about tax cuts nonwithstanding.

The libs would like to think it was the wars that are increasing spending
But they are only kidding themselves

Truth is the worst enemy of the left


US Budget Deficit TRIPLES Under Obama & Democrats– Media Silent …Update: Dems Plan 2nd Stimulus

Thanks Barack. This didn’t get much press for some reason but Obama and democrats spent billions this year on their failed stimulus plan and set all kinds of spending records along the way.

The US budget deficit tripled in Obama’s first year in office.
The unemployment rate nearly doubled.

The reason your phony chart got no play from honest media but tons of exposure by GOP hate run media is, as you well know, it is a premeditated lie, typical of CON$.

Your chart shows a debt of merely $400,000 for 2008 as "actual" but the actual debt was much more.
ONE TRILLION $ MORE!!!!!!!!!!
So would CON$ who lie about tripling the debt tell the truth about doubling UE?
Of course not, UE was 7.2% when Bush left office and maxed at 10.2% 2 months ago.

Debt to the penny:
12/31/2008 $10,699,804,864,612.13
12/31/2007 $ 9,229,172,659,218.31
----------------------------
$ 1,470,632,205,393.82

 

[LibocalypseNow]

Yes but the GOP didn't run around the country lying about all that "Hope & Change" B.S. That was your guy. So is raising the Debt ceiling still "a burden on the backs of our children and grandchildren?" and "a failure of leadership?" Just asking a question.

 

[LibocalypseNow]

Just asking a simple & direct question. I'll wait for the Hopey Changey replies.

Day After Obama Promises to Curb Spending-Dems Pass Largest Debt Increase in History

Tip: Gateway Pundit

After tripling the national deficit in one year, last night Democratic President Barack Obama promised he would not leave Americans with a mountain of debt.

Rather than fight the same tired battles that have dominated Washington for decades, it’s time to try something new. Let’s invest in our people without leaving them a mountain of debt. Let’s meet our responsibility to the citizens who sent us here. Let’s try common sense… To do that, we have to recognize that we face more than a deficit of dollars right now. We face a deficit of trust -– deep and corrosive doubts about how Washington works that have been growing for years. To close that credibility gap we have to take action on both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue — to end the outsized influence of lobbyists; to do our work openly; to give our people the government they deserve.

Today ALL 60 democrats in the US Senate voted for the largest increase in debt in US history.

The Hill reported:

Senate Democrats passed a $1.9 trillion increase in the federal debt limit Thursday, seeking to push off another politically painful debt vote until after the midterm elections.

All 60 Democrats and no Republicans voted for the debt limit increase. The measure, which the House has yet to vote on, would put the debt ceiling at roughly $14.3 trillion.

Well, he meant right after that increase, obviously.

remember when he signed his "porkulous" bill,, right after he said he wouldn't do pork? well maybe next year

Only a liberal would think giving things to people with no expectation that they become self sufficient is helping.

Let me know how your kids turn out... my gut tells me they'll be living at home till they're fifty and even more narcisistic than yourself.

 

[EriktheRed]

This is needed to be able to keep paying for things like Medicare Part D (remember that, GOoPers?), which will in itself raise the debt to beyond its current ceiling.

Obama to Spend $10.3 Trillion on Welfare: Uncovering the Full Cost of Means-Tested Welfare or Aid to the Poor'

Obama Scheduled to Spend more on Welfare than Entire Iraq War

In his first two years in office, President Barack Obama will increase annual federal welfare spending by one-third from $522 billion to $697 billion. The combined two-year increase will equal almost $263 billion ($88.2 bil lion in FY 2009 plus $174.6 billion in FY 2010). After adjusting for inflation, this increase is two and a half times greater than any previous increase in federal welfare spending in U.S. history. As a share of the economy, annual fed eral welfare spending will rise by roughly 1.2 percent of GDP.

Under President Obama, government will spend more on welfare in a single year than President George W. Bush spent on the war in Iraq during his entire presidency. According to the Congressional Research Service, the cost of the Iraq war through the end of the Bush Administration was around $622 billion. By contrast, annual federal and state means-tested welfare spending will reach $888 billion in FY 2010. Federal welfare spending alone will equal $697 billion in that year.

While campaigning for the presidency, Obama lamented that "the war in Iraq is costing each household about $100 per month." Applying the same standard to means-tested welfare spending reveals that welfare will cost each household $560 per month in 2009 and $638 per month in 2010.

Most of Obama's increases in welfare spending are permanent expansions of the welfare state, not temporary increases in response to the current recession. According to the long-term spending plans set forth in Obama's FY 2010 budget, combined federal and state spending will not drop significantly after the recession ends. In fact, by 2014, welfare spending is likely to equal $1 trillion per year.

Yet another example of when CON$ get caught lying they just continue to lie.

Just because you continue to lie does not make your lies any more truthful.

It can't be Bush's fault because it's Clinton's fault.
And if it's not Clinton's fault, it's Carter's fault.
And if it's not Carter's fault, it's F D R's fault.
And if it's not F D R's fault, it's the Democratic Congress' fault.
But it's never, ever Bush's fault.

Yep--The State of Obama included - this President proclaimed "that this is the worse economic crisis since the great depression" that he signed off on over 9000 EARMARKS-in a 450 BILLION dollar bill & simply called it last years business that G.W. Bush refused to sign---

It's the Hopey & Changey you can believe in--LOL

You know why I laugh at this bullshit? Because 97% of you mother fuckers bitching about spending since late January 2009 didn't have a single fucking complaint about the astronomical spending done by the Neocons for the previous 8 years. You hypocrites even defended it by CELEBRATING 9/11 every single time you couldn't justify a position. Which really, was all the time.

 

[Zoom-boing]

Did you hear him on CSPAN today when someone asked about earmarks? Obama said there weren't any earmarks in the recovery bill.

 

[Ame®icano]

How does one pay for two wars that were financed through a tax cut without running a deficit?

The way Bush did, just hide the cost and ask congress for emergency supplemental spending bills every few months.

Republicans really hate to see how much everything costs. Here it all is in the budget and they freak out!! They'd much prefer it hidden away in supplementals.

Borrowing money to pay for unnecessary wars is .....PATRIOTIC

Borrowing money to help American citizens is..........SOCIALISM

Borrowing money to buy American votes is..........CORRUPTION.

It' hard to read that because the first sentence is a blatant lie.v You guys are just so easy to lie to. You don't check facts. Why would anyone who has a clue as to federal finances over the past 10 years would even want to spread a blog with a blatant lie as the opening sentence is beyond me.

Will all of the budget fiscal information that has been published in the past couple of weeks, only someone not seeking the truth would write and/or circulate the above blog.
