CanuckInUSA 0 #13 August 26, 2011 The 2008 Obama campaign slogan was "Yes we can". In 2012 it will be modified "Yes we can add more debt than all other previous federal governments, combined". Republicans can NOT take the high road concerning their past record on government management. When GWB took office, the US Federal debt was $5.768 trillion. By the time Bush left office, it had nearly doubled, to $10.626 trillion. So Bush's record on deficit spending was not good at all. During GWB's presidency, the national debt rose by an average of $607 billion a year. How does that compare to Obama? During Obama's first two years of his presidency, the US federal debt had risen by an average of $1.723 trillion a year — or by a jaw-dropping $1.116 trillion more, per year. Obama is making GWB look like a fiscal conservative and we all know that GWB was NOT a fiscal conservative.

I wonder why? There was a drastic loss from Nov. 07 to Jan. 09, followed by a steep turn around with a fast drop and quick pick up around Aug. 2010 and leveling out, somewhat. All of that was under Dem control. Looking at the two charts (BLS chart expanded to 1945), it appears that the Rep have close to the same amount of success and failure. So, it make one wonder who really has control. Is it the President, congress, or business itself? When I compare the spikes to years at war, it seems that war itself is responsible quick gains and loss. So what is responsible for the spikes in between wars? I think it really depends on what is happening around the world more than it does on who controls congress and the White House. It's just easier for people to blame one side or the other, than to look at the whole picture."...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black."

It's just easier for people to blame one side or the other, than to look at the whole picture. I was just pointing out that over the last decade or so that congress has caused the fluctuations by what they do. Confidence is stronger than a law or regulation and recently the congress nor president has instilled any confidence. After 911, and the 2 recesions in 1980 & 1992 the presidents instilled confidence in the people and businesses and that got us going. All we have now is an over used credit card and bickering in washington. The stimulous could have been 5 trillion and it would not have helped because they were more determined to move this country to the left than to fix the problems we have.
