Roulette Man's last link says you are wrong. Does that make RM a fiction peddler too?

Oh, did I forget? But Clinton! He raised the debt ceiling four times. Because it's, you know, normal, especially in a recession.

And the deficit is down over 40% since Obama took over.


Again a very misleading statement from the fork tongued one. You are talking about the annual deficit, not the overall national deficit...
There is no such thing as the "overall national deficit." It doesn't exist, and never has. Now you're just making shit up to make your argument.

The "national debt" of the federal government is the combined debt throughout our history, and it is still rising, although at a MUCH slower rate than before. The deficit is a one year snapshot.

And the deficit is down over 40% since Obama took over. Even if you don't want it to be.


Again another argument that makes absolutely no sense from you. If the deficit is down 40%, then why is Congress FIGHTING OVER RAISING THE DEBT LIMIT?
Because the national debt is not the same as the deficit. The deficit, for say, 2013, is Obama's "fault." But the national debt is the "fault" of every administration in American history, combined.

But if you do the math, it's mostly Bush's fault.

(Would you like me to do the math right here? I will if you ask nicely!)


You are too funny. That is basically what I was talking about. It is too bad you are so deceitful.

Folks is there any doubt that if Obama inherited a fantastic economic year under a Bush budget, that old Forkie here would be claiming it was Obama? When will the shit from this guy stop?

  • The 2009 CBO federal deficit projection was released on January 2, 2009 under President George W. Bush, eighteen days before President Obama became President Obama.
  • The 2013 CBO deficit projection, under President Obama, is over 40% lower than the 2009.

    Even if you don't want it to be true.

    Oh, and liberals are very eager to part ways with Obama when it comes to NSA domestic spying, Syria, Larry Summers, chained CPI, failing to prosecute both Wall Street criminals and torturers, and so on. While you're with the (Republican) party that's partnered with the Jesus-rode-on-a-dinosaur fundamentalists who want to criminalize anything but Jesus approved sex. We're not we're not starry-eyed true believers like that; we're reality based.

    Thanks for asking. I think Marty should drive this:



    back to 1945 and prevent George H.W. and Barbara from ever getting together.

    You're welcome!


    Obama as the executive in charge for 75% of the fiscal year had the authority to reduce the deficit. He chose not to, thus the deficit is his.

    As usual you didn't read and missed the point completely and then went and turned on your propaganda machine. I was giving the theoretical that if Obama came in and inherited a good economy, that you would claim it was due to Obama at the end of that first year. We see you do that kind of shit time and time again. Get a life forkie. Maybe they have a position of butt wiper for Obama at the White House. You would be perfect for it.

    There is no doubt that is exactly what would happen.

    Can we just all stipulate for the moment that I'm worse than Hitler? Okay, now that that's covered, let's state a couple of truisms:

  • Forky is worse than Hitler.
  • The deficit is down over 40% from the CBO projection made 18 days before Obama became president.

    Now I'm sure we're all in agreement!
