crisp is right, I wouldnt use the "n" word but it really is true. Over 90% of blacks voted for Obama, compared to barely 70% of whites that voted for McCain. Well maybe I'm WRONG, blacks are just more racist than whites
I'm not sure what the KKK Times is reporting but Obama received approximately 44% of the white votes.

You mean debt? Deficit is an annual tally, debt is the overall tally.
Anyway, teh debt has grown from 5.5T to 10.2T in almost 8 years of Bush, the war spending is about 700-800 B, so no, the debt runup is caused byabout 15% war and mostly tax cuts and huge military spending. The US spends almost exactly the same as the rest of the world combined, we're 4.5% of the world's population; guess where a lot of the $$$ is going? We need to raise taxes on everyone, cut military spending in half for starters and go from there. That is what Clinton started on and he turned 12 years of Reagan/Bush 250B/yr debt increase (3 T total) into 18-33B his last year in office. IOW's, he turned the debt increase basically flat and then Bush almost doubled in 8 years what Reagan / Bush did in 12.
But to answer you, no, the war accounts for about 15% of Bush's total debt increase.

The country is so pissed off now that they would have voted for anyone except a Republican as President this time...McCain was not a poor choice at all, he just didn't stand a chance and that's because of Bush.
Right, which is sad, maybe we're not as far racially as it appears. I do believe Hillary or anyone would have won for the Dems tonight, just like after Ford pardoned Nixon, Carter had a red carpet to the WH.

And it couldn't be that race played a limited role. It couldn't be that the neo-cons puched things too far. If Repub voters had nominated McCain 8 years ago, the country wouldn't have been as bad as it is today, and the Repubs might have had a chance today.
Repub electorate: think next time you nomiate a loser like Bush, you put your party here, you put the country here, think next time.

Obviously that's sarcasm, but what I'm saying is that we cannot sustain the level of military we now have. The big laugh was that we outspent the USSR militarily esp during the 80's, so that caused their collapse. Do you think that maybe we're collapsing? 10.2 trillion $$$$ debt - are we collapsing? I think so, time to curtail spending. Right now we spend 8 times that of #2, cut it in half and we spend 4 times and since #2 is Brittan, it's not as if #2 is hunting us. Time to spend less.

Political talk is one thing. You're all over the place tonight, starting threads about preparing for the next 9/11, impeaching Obama...
You're a better man than that. So stop crying. You had eight years of your guy. The world will not end with someone you didn't vote for.

Thinking may not be your strongest attribute..But whoever was on the Dems Ticket was gonna get the Black Vote. Name a year that African Americans had less that 85% for the Democrats?

Yea, now who's gonna maintain sectarian semi-peace? The US appointed puppet? That's the problem, Saddam was a bastard, but he was the most able to keep peace in that hellish region.

This Obama victory is not simply a black thing, that is 1 small component, but the Dems gained 20+ seats in the House and at least 5 in the Senate, so this is an across the board sweep of outing Repubs.

Don't be a hater, BBD. Anyone who is wishing Obama fails is also indirectly hoping the country fails as well. Anyone who loves this country should wish Obama the best.

You guys leave Danny alone. He is entitled to his opinions and feelings. He also has the right to express them. You don't have to agree but some of you are a little too mean spirited in wanting to cut off a dissenting opinion.

To the "black people are racist" crew: Black people make up 12% of the population. Even if they went 100% for Obama, they wouldn't even be 1/4th of the votes necessary for Obama to win.
