Funny how right wingers suddenly discover fiscal responsibility now that their profligate borrow-and-spenders are out of office.

Funny how you keep using this argument to justify bad fiscal responsibility for the group you support.

QuoteQuoteFor how long of a period do you feel the government should provide unemployment benefits? A year? 18 months? 36 months? Indefinitely?
As long as there is a lot of unemp, 9.5% then it's warranted. Let's say 7% is a good time to let up as a start.
What part of "for how long" don't you understand?
Edit to add: In case the concept slipped by you.....for how long do you think any one person should be able to collect unemployment benefits from the government?

>All Democrats want to do is borrow money from China to buy votes.
By that measure, all Republicans want to do is borrow money from China to kill innocent Iraqis. Of the two I think the Democratic goal is a little less vile.

Two wrongs do make a right in your world apparently.
Two wrongs from the right, Saint Ronald Reagan and G.W. Bush, between them multiplied the national debt by a factor of nearly 6. On average the neo-con presidents raised the national debt by 10.8% EVERY YEAR.
The three largest increases in debt/GDP ratio since 1945 have been under presidents Reagan, Bush and Bush.
Under the Reagan/Bush administrations the USA went from the world's largest creditor to the world's largest debtor.
From July to October 2008, while Bush2 was president, the national debt increased by over $1 Trillion. In Oct 2008 alone the national debt increased by $500 Billion. No month or 4 month period before or since have seen such large increases.
Did all this borrowed money go to make us safer, educate our children or improve our infrastructure? No, mostly it went to make the rich even richer.

No, I think it's more likely to be pure hypocrisy.

most of self proclaimed cons here complained about Rep spending also
however, you are correct - Libs are consistent
they want to spend us into ruin during a Republican administration
and they want to spend us into ruin during a Democratic administration
congrats

But unless (and perhaps anyway) Obama loses his reelection bid, he's going to join them.

Sounds like bad accounting, since the actual cost of TARP is going to be around 100B, not the 700B face value. As this money has come back, the Democrats have seen it as money to be respent without having to treat it as new debt, even though that's just as stupid as in college when you pay the bill with a credit card and take "free" cash from your buddies. And we already know that TARP was not desired by many of the participants, so painting it as a bailout of the rich is another simplification.
Extended benefits may be fine, but something else has to give on the budget. Get out of Iraq, buy fewer F35s, scrap the Mars mission, or take the money out of the Stimupork package.

Tell that to the US Treasury - it's from their data. I guess you'll do it right after you tell the IRS how to do its job.

QuoteFactoid indirectly related to the topic:
According to a report I got today, only 25% of 2010 college graduates with bachelor's degrees have found jobs or admission to graduate school so far. Even traditionally employable majors like engineering are way down.
Summer's not over yet. I don't know of many college grads that aren't drowning them selves in beer or whatever right now.
