You say that liberals are obsessed by mistakes made during that "long-gone" Bush era. Yes, Stan.....we're still upset about those kids who died fighting the wrong war in the wrong country. As a former Marine, I'm disgusted. Do you suggest the parents of those kids simply pretend the war never happened and was funded by Monopoly money?
And regarding the economy:
- Fiscal 2009 began Oct. 1, 2008. That was before Obama was elected, and nearly four months before he took office on Jan. 20, 2009.
- President Bush signed the massive spending bill under which the government was operating when Obama took office. That was Sept. 30, 2008.
- Bush also signed, on Oct. 3, 2008, a bank bailout bill that authorized another $700 billion.....though not all of that would end up being spent in fiscal 2009, as Obama signed a measure REDUCING total bailout spending to $475 billion.
- On Jan. 7, 2009 — two weeks before Obama took office — CBO issued its budget outlook, stating: “CBO projects that the deficit this year will total $1.2 trillion.”
- CBO attributed the rapid rise to the bank bailout and the federal takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac – plus rising costs for unemployment insurance and other factors driven by the collapsing economy (which shed 818,000 jobs in January alone).
Note that most of this spending is the direct result of laissez faire/free market principles behind the global economic crisis. Principles, mind you, which Romney has long supported and Obama has long opposed. So who am I going to vote for, Stan? Obama. I believe I'm fairly intelligent and well-informed. But I'll not have the gall to accuse all Romney supporters of being stupid or misinformed. They have their votes and I have mine. I'll leave all the blanket criticisms and accusations in your hands. You seem to have a pretty good grasp on them.
