hwt 0 #29 September 6, 2010 Quote Basically, yes. All you can do is what you guys do to FDR and say he prolonged the GD. When a pres inherits a POS that is still descening, he has a fair period of time before he owns it. According to the socipaths tho, he owned it 2 weeks into his presidency. Try as you will, your party fucked this up, as with Reagan, Harding Coolidge, etc and we are once again fixing it. __________________________________________ Hello Mcfly, anybody home? The Democrats along with Barney Frank and Dodd are the ones who created this mess . but you go ahead and blame Bush, perhaps a few people out there will buy your B.S... go ahead and explain exactly what Bush did to create this mess. I have already told you what the democrats did in earlier posts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cutting taxes doesn't help when people are unemployed. Cutting taxes doesn't work to stimilate the economy on any long term basis. With the bail out of a bunch of executives, as you call it, a bunch of workers had their jobs protected as well. The failure of Wal Street would have put you well beyond Greece.

BO just announced yesterday that he will be spending another $50 billion dollars on top of what he is already spending. I tell you the way BO spends money, he is making GWB look like a fiscal conservative and non partisans know GWB was NOT a fiscal conservative.

CanuckInUSA 0 #42 September 7, 2010 Quote Agreed. Cut government spending to below income levels and pay down the deficit. Why do people continue to incorrectly use the word "deficit"? I would have thought you would know the difference between a "deficit" and "debt". If the Feds cut their spending below their income levels, there will be no deficit and then the Feds can start paying down their debt.

If the Feds cut their spending below their income levels, there will be no deficit and then the Feds can start paying down their debt. It is the Deficit that is causeing part of the debt. The very first thing that should be obvious to everyone is to stop the budget deficit by cutting programs then cut taxes as it balances out.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
