  • the policies that caused the soaring debt were implemented under bush

  • @Angellicationify You fail

  • The debt when George W. Bush took office was $5.727 Trillion when he left it was $10.627 Trillion. The total debt that George W accumulated in eight years of office is $4.9 Trillion The debt right now is $13.736 Trillion. In approximately 666 days in office, he has accumulated $3.066 Trillion. Using simple algebra you'll find by Dec 2011, Obama will have accumulated more debt in three years than George W. did in 8 years.

  • Hillary Clinton is being preened to take President Maobama's place. Both Obama and Hilary answer to George Soros who contributed to both and who has the mainstream media in his back pocket. He gets Obama to take the Country to extreme socialism passing treasonous legislation against the will of the American people, then gets Hillary in office. Our dollar is on the verge of collapse, and our sovereignty is threatened as a direct result of legislation and lack of leadership.

  • Clinton didn't leave a $5.6 Trillion surplus but a $1.4 trillion debt over eight years. He borrowed from Social Security, part of a $115 Trillion unfunded liability, to make it seem he left a surplus. See my about me for links. The Debt Clock should be adjusted increasing the national debt from $14.0 to $21 Trillion and reducing our unfunded liabilities by $7 Trillion to reflect the truth about Clinton.

  • Amen

  • Re Clinton - I stated Facts - those things that people like you Hate.

    Dembos will continue to Lose as long as they do Not respect the Constitution.

    I agree to disagree, because I see I'm wasting my time with you. Goodbye.

  • Social and Fiscal Conservative. Look it up for a real definition, not yours.

  • I love those Clinton conspiracy theories. You have cleverly discovered the secret that progressives hate freedom of speech, right to a free trial, or any of that stuff in the bill of rights. You may recall that the bill or rights was considered too liberal for most conservatives in the 1700's or in England.

  • What kind of conservative are you? Most are cultural conservatives. Most conservative economists support the bank bailout and higher govt spending during recessions. I dont think you do? There are supply side conservatives such as W but they always run up the deficit because the premise does not work. You can cut taxes if you cut the spending. But if you cut the spending you lose the election. Wealthy countries unusually spend more on education and infrastructure. Would you?
