Wait, these are mostly the same points made on the Left by Robert Reich
People call this propaganda based on the source, not by the content.

@white25rs National debt quadrupled under Reagan+Bush 1 and doubled under Bush 2 ...that is reality and I know many so-called "conservatives," Republicans, Tea kool-aiders, and Fox infotainment people don't like embracing reality and facts. lol ....yup facts do make you mad because facts don't line up with the mendacity and kool-aid created and fed to you by right wing corporate/wealth machine. Try to break your addiction to denial of facts.

So how are these considered misconceptions if you support every one of these claims in detail? Your logic lacks reason.

The issue that "conservatives," Republicans and republican Tea people think is the problem with Obama and Democrats. And that is the National Debt. The facts: Reagan 1.9 Trillion; HW Bush: 1.5; Clinton: 1.4; GW Bush 6.4; Obama: 2.4.
Last 30 years of National Debt:
Democratic Party Presidents: 3.8 Trillion Dollars
Republican Party Presidents: 9.8 Trillion Dollars
Nothing "conservative" about ^^ the nearly 10 Trillion GOP created debt.
The large Debt is a Republican/conservative created problem.

@crocfme actually foreign aid is miniscule compared to military spending and other programs. (it's something like 0.2% of total government spending)
