   Yeah! I agree anything but the last two presidential “Shrubs” which I take you are not placing any fault for the present state of affairs on

   And here I thought polls showed it was the PEOPLE who were blaming the republicans for the sequester.
   

   
   Well when they have no foundation upon which to base their position the republicans fall back to their tried and true tactics of “lie, obfuscate and redirect the focus.”

   Right-e-o. It’s the GOP who are the shysters, and have their right-wing media to keep the lies going. Less than 10% of the population are aware that the deficit has been drastically reduced under Obama.

   Yes, it’s disloyal to the nation to attempt to advance any but rightwing talking points. Democracy would be perfect if you could do away with traitors who think before they vote.

   The deficit has NOT been reduced. If you believe that, you would believe ANYthing! He has increased the deficit more in 4 years than GW Bush did in 8. People like you are the reason I stay away from Liberals – I’m allergic to nuts!

   He believes it because he is told to by his anointed and drinks the required amount of Kool Aid to discourage critical thinking.

   I doubt it. We’ll probably see you here again.

    Let me give this a try.
    The national debt is an accumulation of years of deficit spending.
    2009 was a particularly bad year because of Bush’s poor policy management.
    Each year since the amount of deficit spending has been less, but it is still deficit spending.
    We were on the right track.
    But putting more people out of work and taking away 20% of government workers pay is going to make matters worse.
    We needed jobs, jobs, jobs.
    Instead we got abortion, gay marriage, Benghazi, and constant threats of government shutdown.
    The only thing Republicans have accomplished is to take the word “lunatic” out of official papers.
    Wonder why that was so important.

    Ah, talking points from Bill O’Reilly who implied that President Obama is responsible for a 75 percent increase in federal spending over the past decade. But federal spending has increased only 18.8 percent under Obama — and it increased 66 percent under President George W. Bush.

    And Media Matters, of course, never lets their liberal bias enter into their statements. For a guy who chastises O’Reilly, you sure do fall for Media Matters hook, line, and sinker.

    @Ionizer

    So tell me where the bias is, as I tell you where O’Reilly’s is. If you can.

    
    If you can’t, then hush up and go away.

    Zuhlamon, you must have gone to a gub’mint school. Jan ‘09 the debt was $10.626T, That was the month PresBo was coronetted, in Sept ’12 the debt hit $16T and today it’s $16.6T, so in four years PresBo ran it up $6T. Need I say more
