No, I was addressing YOUR point of how spending cuts led to balanced budget under Clinton. Here's that post for your inconvenience:
You can't. It is why you rely entirely on parroting right wing talking points.
Says you, and then you post spending increase stats to falsely try to imply Obama reduced federal sending, when Obama simply rolled trillion dollar emergency spending funds into every year of federal spending.
It's like you made a one time purchase of $20,000 for a new car in 2009, and then your wife added $20,000 in additional household spending each year afterwards, and claimed she had not increased household spending.

Correct my numbers. BUT, may be third time will be a charm... weren't you talking about Gingrich, Clinton and balanced budget?

The numbers I presented span EIGHT presidential terms, with spending increase calculated by term. Aren't those facts handful?
The tax questions are DONE... the liberals have NO leverage in the negotiations with spending cuts. It is going to happen once you hit the cap... I wonder what is going to happen... No need to wonder...

In other words, we're getting massive spending cuts. Wasn't that the right wing demand? Why are they shedding tears now?
The fight will start in earnest and will need a lot of people to exercise their voices in what needs to be done. First of all, make sure Congress allows for the payment of bills they rang up.
Well, neither side (includes the president) has a plan to balance the budget. So I guess it doesn't matter.
I wish all the partisan hacks here would wake up and realize there isn't enough income to be taxed to cover the spending and neither side has proposed actual budget cuts. They only talk in terms of fairy tale reductions in future increases and claim that is a cut....lol
It's all a sad joke. BOTH sides are working together to fool the ignorant and the overwhelming majority of people buy into it.
Continue on with your side sucks and my side is good commentary. You are all WRONG!
With the fast growing welfare class, the debt can only keep rising. Plus Obama has in mind a very huge amnesty and after that many more foreigners will be added to disability rolls and wanting their piece of the free American pie.
www.usdebtclock.org and usdebt by president. They are all very quilty of destruction. As you can see from the data. Each and every politician must be watched daily to save the nation.

$600 billion cuts to Medicare and Defense (taking the spending back to 2000 levels) ... half of the deficit gone. Good idea?

There are no real cuts. There are only theoretical reductions in future increases, called cuts instead.
If I am spending $100/week on food today and "plan" on spending $200 next week, but then decide to only spend $150 next week, I did not impose a cut. I actually imposed a 50% increase. However, the politicians will tell you it is a cut.
Pure silliness, but eagerly accepted by the willing.
