How fast is the federal deficit rising?

The financial physics is scary!

Using the Titanic analogy here (and in general) is perfect imo.

Oh, just give Hopey 4 more, and he'll fix everything. TRUST IN HIM!

You have to admit he had his hands tied somewhat.

If he had been allowed to continue his series of trillion dollar stimulis programs (each of which creates 3-4 million new jobs) we would be fine and the deficit surely would have been cut in half as he promised.

...and besides, what's another few trillion dollars of debt...oh....wait....

I saw something funny on facebook. A super liberal friend of mine posted an article stating that Obama isn't spending as fast as we think. Basically, what the article asserted was that Obama is a swell guy and it's all the economies fault that revenue hasn't kept up with spending. But right smack dab in the middle of the article (which was a third rate hack job cherry-picking data to whitewash Hopey's failure) was a sentence that astounded me. Right there in the middle of this hack liberal junk logic piece were the words "Obama would have spent more, much more, if not for the Republicans in Congress blocking him".

Even his own base is finally admitting this guy has a spending problem.

I guess this is what is so amazing to me....that while everyone sees the same problems the liberals stand on their heads to fault everything but the government.

So the problem is not the incredible amount of spending....it's that businesses are not doing their part to keep the government in the black.

What boggles my mind is that no matter how poorly Obama does or how many promises he has broken, liberals will splain it away by blaming everything on capitalism, free markets and the wealthy.

It's scary.

It's horrifying. But thankfully, Romney is a real deficit hawk and he'll get our budget in order!

We have a friend who last her job today because an entire college campus is being shut down. My young cousin passed the bar exam this spring hasn't been able to get a job yet. But guess who both are all rahrahrah for all over facebook.

Both my husband and my son are working, but both have lost jobs twice in the last 4 years and both are working lower paying jobs just to have work. My son has 4 children and cannot afford to have the medical insurance that is offered by his compamy.

Yep. We need 4 more years of this guy.
