And....Barack Obammer is your answer. You fucking tool. So far Obummer has an absolute record of failure going on 5 yrs. Yet there you go sucking BO cock and loving it. Great smart person you are. When will you bend over for a Barack reaming? LOSER

[Bobololo4200]

Paul ryan go fuck yourself!

And Obama signed off on almost every single Bush appropriation for the 2009 budget, so you can stop writing that off on Bush.

Learn the difference between debts and deficits, then get back to me.

[havoc000A]

errr hello

Deficit to GDP 2009 (Bush Budget) - 10%

Deficit to GDP 2014 set to be around 5% 

[JoshBoschke]

Actually, the economy was growing before Clinton's tax hikes came into place. His tax increases actually slowed down the economy and he created the NASDAQ bubble which popped during the Bush administration.

How exactly is Obama reducing the deficit? He has made ZERO cuts in spending and the deficit isn't even close to being cut in half as he promised. U.S. debt is almost 100% of GDP

[havoc000A]

US deficit is 5% of GDP. It was 3% before the 2008 crash. Obama is doing quite well in reducing it. You don't face collapse.

Also, as the US economy is recovering from the deepest financial and banking crises since the 1930s, then its not a good idea especially when you havn't got strong growth, which is what Clinton had in the 1990s to do it.

Isnt the health care funded by tax payers? I don't know? That's how it works in my country.

[Dimitri0809]

Let's just hope that the UN is not working for something sinister.

[Kiwichico]
