Cant ignore facts. But I am sure some of you will continue to educate me on how things really work.

Yep... you can't ignore facts. But you can sure make stats sing any song you want them to sing.

Everybody takes the stats and they twist them to say whatever their tiny agenda is while the truth of the fact is that both sides are spending us into oblivion.

One side is for war spending (Which has continued nicely under Obama) and the other side wants to provide every crazy social program they can dream up.

The fact is that the federal government is so unbelievably overblown and so completely gone beyond it's authority and place that there's nearly no way back to good common sense.

On these nicely glued together stats... as is usual with the democratic side of this 2 sided steam roller that is crushing this nation... you can't just total up how much revenue was "missed" on a tax cut. That isn't the way it works. Lower taxes spurs business and there is no dollar for dollar loss which can be calculated by simply multiplying the tax cuts by the number of people.

But... that's the agenda people want to support so they plug & play all day long with stats. The republicans are just as guilty.

We don't need a new view on the role of the federal government. We need a return to an old view of the role of the federal government,.

Interesting how on that chart the Wars, TARP, Economic downturn and the recovery nearly equal the Bush Tax cuts.

Here is the thing though, National Debt is not a bad thing. The "bad thing" is when the debt keeps growing and under Obummer it grew even faster and larger

And your buddies the Democrats VOTES for those wars.

Here are some other colorful and purty pictures to look at

In 2006, Senator Obama said...

"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 U.S. Government can’t 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."

Wow! What a change of heart he seems to have had! Now he says it will destroy the economy if we don't raise it.

Yep... both the Democrats and the Republicans have contributed to the mess we face. It amazes me how they go back and forth blaming the other like children.

Right now I'm just as enraged at the GOP establishment as I am the Democrats for their absolute attack on the GOP voter. The GOP establishment does not support liberty, personal freedom, or a strict Constitutional view of government. Our only hope is to pressure our State governments to be the last line of defense against Federal tyranny. Lobbying Federal Congressman is a waste of time. They are addicted to power and privilege and will not lay them down willingly.

Both republicans and Democrats are guilty. If they can keep the little people scrapping against each other about whose side did a better job, they can keep on doing what they are doing.
