Politics and Money

[SOROS]

Really? Low deficits and low spending? Obviously you skip some posts because the truth is too hard to swallow. At least check out the chart on the first link.

Here's another chart to look at and analyze again, as the blame liberals throw around for not enough income versus who is spending too much is kind of shattered by this. When looking at the spending explosion, do the dates sort of jump out as to who was in the cat bird's seat during this time? His quote about deficits in 2006 used the phrase "the buck stops here" when telling the people how he would rule as president. Seriously scary, pitiful, and sad that 53% STILL believe what comes out of his mouth, as if he is any different than any other politician.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, 'the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."

~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006
