    Just another $1,000,000,000,000.00+ in the hole : USA

    Congressional Budget Office reports another $1 trillion deficit

    The $1.079 trillion deficit now projected for this fiscal year ending Sept. 30 is a step backwards from what CBO had predicted in August.

    There's plenty of blame to go around.

    The fact that the Republicans blame Obama and the Democrats blame W. is a big reason why we're in this mess in the first place. Let's all point fingers as the house burns down.

    Beat me to it.

    You cats are doing exactly what our government wants you to do. You couldn't manufacture more predictable responses -- within seconds, you get a "blame Obama" followed by a "blame Bush" retort.

    George W. and Obama are divisive leaders. Maybe Romney can win and start leading the US out of this mess.

    He paid off the entire national debt in Jan 1835. Only time this has ever been accomplished in US history.

    You'd rather play the blame game than actually solve the problem.

    You honestly think it matters who is in the White House at this point -- incredible. They're all on the same team and in the pocket of Wall Street Sam. Doesn't matter if it's Obama, Romney -- whoever. The only way to become POTUS these days is to get in bed with these slimeballs. Between corrupt big business leaders and inept Congress members, the President is an irrelevant puppet.

    Keep pointing fingers at the square scapegoat, though.

    Plenty of people still blame W. And Clinton, and HW, and Reagan....

    Common denominator? They're all to blame. It isn't a (D) or (R) thing these days -- it's a government thing. Period.

    fuk the kids .. i want cheap shit now.
    Let the kids worry about it later.

    For the idiots that think Bush was blameless .. I posted this back in September of last year.

    Quote Originally Posted by jw View Post

    Bush actually said that high levels of Government debt was a good thing .. as it would ultimately lead to "Starve the Beast" and a smaller government ... no really .. he actually said that.

    http://www.ourfuture.org/blog-entry/...-positive-news

    On August 25, 2001, just seven months after taking office, George W. Bush learned that his budgets had already erased the previous administration's huge surplus -- that was paying off our country's debt at a rapid rate -- and had instead forced the country to start borrowing again. Bush said it was "Incredibly Positive News''

    President Bush said today that there was a benefit to the government's fast-dwindling surplus, declaring that it will create "a fiscal straitjacket for Congress." He said that was "incredibly positive news" because it would halt the growth of the federal government.

    Bush certainly wasn't the first conservative to think deficits and debt were a good thing. Conservatives had for years advocated a strategy to "starve the beast" by intentionally plunging the country into debt, forcing cutbacks in government oversight of corporate behavior such as regulatory oversight, safety inspections and consumer protections.

    You guys should be kissing Obama's feet and dancing in the aisles .. he is once again following a GOP strategy to the letter ....

    Nothing original there. Government spends (or poorly spends) the money. Campaign promises cost money.

    So your solution is no government?

    My solution is responsible government leaders and a government that truly works for the people, which no longer exists thanks to lobbyists and corporations working their way into their back pockets.

    In other words, we're fvcked.

    And in 8 years, he did nothing to change that. Cute expression. Maybe his wife's astrologer came up with it.

    Standing guard while a shadow government finances illegal wars by selling drugs to your own people...I'd say a prostitute would be a step up actually.
