I guess I should thank democratic congress for screwing up so bad.

like i said...he thinks the dems have run the country for the last 8
years....

i guess to the right wing, bush was a democrat...

Nope, Bush be GOP, but did the democrat congressional budget. Makes me
wonder if they teach the Americans how governent works in DC. Bush nor
Obama dictate the budget, it needs congress for that.

and the pres proposes his own budget. the congress does not decide
alone. that's the reality on capitol hill


If anything, you can blame democrate congress AND both of Bush and
Obama. Obama did $1.3 trillion debt-corruption-spend in just 8 months
in office! I would not doubt that is an all time recorded even compard
to 9/11.

he did it to rescue the country from the free market fundamentalism of
the GOP congresss from 1980 to the present.

it's sound economics. if you've ever taken an economics course, it's
standard economic theory. if the consumer collapses, SOMEONE has to
step in to take up the slack otherwise the economy collapses

free market fundies raped the middle class and transferred our money
to their pockets. it's why the weathiest 1% own a huge amount of the
wealth in this country


Starting with Clintons liberalization of bank lending

in a bill authored by the GOP phil gramm and his enron VP
wife....pushin the 'free market' fundamentalism that dominated
economic thinking for the last 30 years.

Might have been, but Clinton being a democrat liberal, cheap loan money
was more important than economic stability.

well, no. clinton had a GOP congress and was a wounded president. the
GOP congress took advantage of it.


and compounded by
democratic congress, being the worst debtors in mankinds history. See,
you liberal dimwitts ignore that Bush/obama's budgets all came from a
debt willing congress.

really? the biggest spender in history was george bush, with reagan
not far behind

oh well, i guess the right wing cant count...


It took Bush 8 years with democrat congressional full support for Bush,
Obama on the other hand is accumulation debt 5 times the rate, if not
more. At Obama's rate, he will double the US national debt in under 8
years. By comparison, Bush wasn't that bad.

and the collapse of the economy engineered by the GOP over the last 30
years calls for drastic measures.

this is merely a reflection of the destructive path the GOP has forged
with its dedication to making the rich richer


DC mentality, either party is a debt-corruption mentality. The
depression will not end until it is cleaned up a bit. Society can't
afford the size of government any longer.

we can't afford the free market fundamentalism of the GOP
