Wow, you're so right. How could I possibly be foolish enough to think that ACTUAL NUMBERS showing the national debt exploding under Republican Presidents and dropping or barely moving under Democratic Presidents could possibly stand up to your meaningless rhetoric that the opposite is true? Tell you what, if you think the numbers are manipulated, prove it.

You have talking points. I have actual numbers. If you want to debunk me, you're going to have to do better than crying, "No it isn't!"

Ok rzr, I know you don't respond well to reason and logic, but how about PICTURES?

You said:

"You are a whack job to claim Republicans grow government more than Democrates." (I'm assuming by "Democrates" you meant "Democrats," not some ancient Greek philosopher)

I present a graph (in color!) showing national debt increases over the past 25 years:

Or how about private sector job growth?

Questions?

@CrapOfTheWorld I am very glad to hear it.. I've had enough disillusionment, thank you

@Larkinchance Franken voted against the NDAA. He even wrote an article on The Huffington Post called 'Why I Voted Against the National Defense Authorization Act'.

He passed an early version of it, hoping that the offending clauses would get altered in the house, but when the bill came back unchanged, he voted against it.

[Larkinchance]

I supported you. I was thrilled when you kicked Colman's phony ass.

But Al, did you really vote for the National Defense Authorization Act?

Did you do this? You voted for a law that allows the Military to arrest American citizens and confine them indefinitely without due process on suspicion alone?

The provision is so broad that it can and will be used to quell political dissent or simple vandalism?

You and your fellow representatives have committed treason against the American people.

I can tell John Thune went a few semesters at Politician Institute of America based on his exquisite training in the usage of hand gestures and pointing. He understands the importance of folding the index finger and pointing in a non-threatening manner to emphasize a point, yet with the gusto to show that he means business. He lets me know that he's the authoritarian over me. He's well-oiled and he scores an A!

Senator Franken is a moron and an illegitimate senator.

So, @ssutton711, you admit your own party, your own advocates, are liars.

And that, my friends, is what is called an EPIC FAIL.

The promise of "change" has been met - despite a supermajority - with little more than gridlock and rumblings within their own party....and now the excuses and your baseless qualifiers come rolling in as you face losing the momentum you gained less than two years ago. Sad, really....
