@thedinosaurjones During George "duh" Bush's 8 years, he only increased the debt 0.5 trillion per year. His predecessor Clinton only increased it 0.3 trillion per year. Even Reagan only increased spending by 0.4 trillion per year

.

BUT Obama? He increased the debt by 1.4 trillion per year

.

He's the worst spender. Ever

This is pretty disingenuous. First, it's not actually addressing what Obama was talking about when he said "it's not class warfare, it's math" - the widening gulf between the upper class and the middle and lower classes. Besides that, if you're going to point to job losses and an increase in the national debt as the big indicators that Obama is doing a bad job, fine; but keep in mind that based on those indicators, George W failed, too.

Why is it every time Obama wants to raise taxes on the job creators he always says “either we raise taxes on the rich or we cut Medicare?” Is he trying to make us believe that we can’t cut say his salary, pension, or other benefits, or maybe the benefits of congress, or maybe cut support for foreign countries like China and Russia and India? Why is it with this guy it’s always the poor that takes the heat rather than the upper echelons of government or foreign governments?

President Downgrade is terrible at math. By the way, has anyone seen those college transcripts to verify that he even passed math?

When the person occupying the Oval Office:

1. Practices the Politics of Class Warfare and Envy

2. Continuously stirs his pot of Hate

3. Refers to the seasoned citizens of the Tea Party as “hostage-takers”

4. Orders supporters to “punish our enemies” (fellow Americans!)

5. AND says the police “acted stupidly” . . .

. . . that’s when complete and utter disregard for civility and Rule of Law pose a threat to the Republic.

Almost every number Obama puts out gets revised FOR THE WORSE a month later (when our focus is on the present).

That said, maybe President Zero will revise last month's historically unprecedented "Zero Jobs Created" by introducing Absolute Numbers?!?

Because Obamanomics is Trickle-Up Poverty, and Obama ABSOLUTELY sucks.
