This from the Conservatives who turned down $4 trillion dollars in debt reduction for maybe $2.4 trillion dollars in debt reduction all because you didn't want additional tax revenue and so you can curry political favor with the Tea Party faithful.
Thanks for sharing!
I still haven't found that $4 trillion you keep talking about. Where is it and who offered it?
No, I just enjoy calling out people who conveniently gloss over Bush's deficit increases while laying 100% of all blame for everything wrong in the U.S. at Obama's door. It's almost as if Bush were never president the way some of you talk...
All conservatives know Bush was a terrible president. We also know that Kerry and Gore would have been worse.
Yeah it really is too bad that abortion of a president spent so much, isn't it? It's also too bad he didn't listen to Clinton's expert on Al Qaeda. I'm sorry to hear all of those who lost their lives were your closest friends. What are the odds? My condolences.
About this debt, like the overwhelming majority of Americans, I think we should cut spending and raise taxes. And we should go ahead and pass a balanced budget amendment so when another drunken idiot is in office he can't spend us into oblivion again.
Show me the poll that says a majority of Americans want taxes raised. I would surely entertain a link about that one.

Income from the $200k plus crowd dropped by $450 Billion in 2002, the lost revenue even if the tax rates had stayed the same would have been about $140 Billion. The budget assumed an increase of $42 billion in revenue increases, not a $140 billion loss of revenue due to a loss of income, not tax cuts.
I know you have a lot invested in your party, and your left/right debate, unfortunately you are just being lied to.

No, but I wonder why you would consider using the word in an argument where it shouldn't be anywhere in the radar. You could have just said... Bush had a plan in 2001, to pay off the entire debt... using tax cuts. Realities begged to differ, however.
He has spent about $4 trillion in 2 1/2 years and was trying for a clean bill to give him an added$2.4 trillion for the next year. How deep would we be if he got everything he wanted?
I nearly forgot to mention the number of times I have been called a racist because I didn't vote for Obama. Do you suppose that all of the nearly 50% of our people that saw through his lies are all racists? i think not but it sure made me one to you left leaners.
What you just did was much like attorneys saying things to juries and being told they shouldn't and then the juries being told to forget that. You could have deleted that sentence before posting it, but didn't. Now are we all to forgot what you said?
It was humorous, to me, and I think that if we stop spending for defense we will have no military and then it will be easier for certain parties to take over our government with no opposition.
There are lots of way to cut DOD spending without having any real effect on their abiltity to do their job, Billons paid to companies such as Haliburton are unaccounted for, start with civilian contractors.

Wrong. Try again. Perhaps you may want to address/talk about the whining and crying on budget deficits that you participated in?
Please don't spend too much time poking. It will be wasted time.
