Michelle Bachman took him down.
Yep, and the Obama campaign celebrated. Now if only she can get rid of Romney and Perry and win the nomination.
Do you just hate conservatives? Seriously. What is wrong with Bachman? Is is because she is a woman? I think Perry could win it. I don't know if that would be good though.
She's a nut Stone. After she voted to raise the debt ceiling by $6 trillion over 8 years she now says she's opposed to any increase in the debt ceiling, a stance that directly led to the recent debt downgrade.
Obama opposed raising the debt ceiling when he was in the Senate and now he supports it. He he a nut too?
No, he's a politician. But there's no way he would have voted against raising it if there was a chance of it not being raised. BTW, Reagan supported raising it 17 times, by your logic that makes him a flaming liberal.
It took Reagan 17 times and it didn't even get over $2 trillion total..... Obozo got over that alone in the last one $2.4.... right...... over $5 trillion total in 3 years......
Reagan tripled the national debt during his time as President. Obama hasn't come close despite inheriting a $1.2 trillion deficit.
nice chart - glad you accept that public debt rose sharply starting in 1981 and fell during the Clinton administration before rising again under Bush. Reagan tripled the debt, that's a fact. Obama hasn't come anywhere close to that.
ROTFLMAO.... good luck with that statement that's not what the chart shows.... Reagan-2, Obozo-5.......
The fact is that Reagan tripled the debt. You an deny it all you want, but facts are facts. Sorry. Reagan inhereted a national debt of $900 billion and handed George HW Bush a national debt of $2.7 trillion (after 17 increases in the debt ceiling. It took 31 years for the debt to go from $300 billion to $900 billion. Reagan tripled it in just 8.
I haven't seen that "FACT" yet, just an opinion.....
It is a fact that Reagan tripled the national debt. Look for yourself: http://www.treasurydirect.gov/govt/reports/pd/histdebt/histdebt_histo4.htm
Spending originates with congress.
Good point, and Republicans have held the House since January. So why are folks like you and CZ blaming Obama for the deficit?
Because they tried to cut spending and Obama cried like a bitch. It's Obamas fault. Everyone knows it no matter how you try to spin for him.
