I love all the Economists and Accountants in this thread, who don't even know who makes the decisions on spending money/allocating money. Seriously, you guys are hilarious.
It's like watching a bunch of doofuses argue about blaming a Grocery/Supermarket chain local store manager, for the prices of the product. When in fact it's corporate headquarters that makes those decisions. LOL!!!
Carry on fellas. Good comedy is hard to come by. Keep 'em coming.
Except no. Check your sources, OP. George Bush was and is the most spending president in world history.
Fail attempt to derail Obama...AGAIN.

Its already been proven, Obama has jumped spending by $900 BILLION, going from $2.9B, to $3.8B in only 3 1/2 years, and over those 3 1/2 years, the spending is estimated to exceed $14 Trillion, it took Bush about 6 years to do that.
Deficits under Obama in those 3 1/2 years, exceeded 8 years of Bush..
Check YOUR sources and stop embarassing yourself. Btw, who the hell designated you boss of the thread?
But this Peter Ferrara guys has a history of inaccurate nonsense and flinging horse manure against the wall, in hopes that it would stick long enough to scrub a few numbheads.
I'm against this administration (Obama's administration), but I'm not buying the manure Ferrara is selling.
Makes for sensationalistic trash and that's about it.
Our country is bigger than it has ever been. The near collapse of our economy requires hin to infue massive amouts of cash. All economists of any caliber say that by about 2018 or so our deficit with be 20 trillion or so no matter who is president. So wise up and admit that no matter who is POTUS WE ARE IN FOR A LONG HAUL. You don't fix in four years what took 8 years or more in the making..
So you agree with the post you are responding to. Obama is the all time big spender.
So, during first three years under Bush, spending increased by 23%, and only 8% under Obama.
And Bush was pilloried by both sides for spending like a drunken sailor; "unpatriotic" was the term 0bama used.
0bama increased the federal baseline spending by a trillion dollars, not 8%. Don't even try and use the lame, and dishonest tact, that 0bama only continued bush's EMERGENCY spending levels. As was pointed out in an earlier post, it would be just as asinine as the wife thinking that she can now spend $30,000 a month, because her hubby bought a $30,000 car in January.
This is why the lunatic left gets ZERO respect, you guys float ignorant and dishonest crap like "spending only increased by 8% under 0bama".
0bama spent a trillion more each year, at a time when we have reduced revenue........and...... he has his HHS, FDA, and EPA go out and ADD new punitive regulations that drive up the cost of energy, commerce and increased the day-to-day costs of living and for running a business.
Epic fail of leadership, and overall economic policy decision making, on 0bama's part. The nation is having troubles getting it's legs under it, and 0bama is busy kicking our legs out from under us.
