Obama knew that this country was worse shape when he took the reigns. Muhammad Ali said that when America elects the first black president, the damn country must be sinking. If that black president doesn't get it turned around to everyone's satisfaction, he is deemed a failure.

if you don't raise taxes and spend the economy will never recover, more people will have no jobs and their potential will have been eroded and wasted for months of years. this is a ridiculous. we could've invested in cheaper fuel and better schools, instead we invested in Goldman Sachs, Iraq/Afghan wars, and private health insurance. And these same groups are telling you through radio and FOX NEWS that government spending is wrong because they DON'T want to be taxed.

@MRSAUCEDOG: what is wrong with you??? you do have amnesia. GW BUSH came in and got a majority in congress all the way until 2006 and in 2007 we entered a recession that snowballed into a great recession in 2008 right when GW BUSH's time is up and he leaves a pile of horse crap for Obama to clean up. When bush came in, clinton had achieved yearly surpluses for like 3 years already. GW BUSh automatically discontinued that type of practice.

@asdfqwervd The democrats had control of congress from 1988-1995. In 1995 our deficit was at -$163.9 billion. Republicans took back congress 1996 and the deficit went on a decline by the time President Clinton left office in 2001 we had a surplus of $128.2(republicans still in control) Clinton had the sense to listen to the members of congress. Obama on the other had DOES NOT So sit back, wait for your welfare check and food stamps and shut the fuck up you don’t know what you are talking about

@MRSAUCEDOG the only reason you dislike Obama is because YOU THINK he's a socialist AND you have no idea how socialism is implemented.

@MRSAUCEDOG do you have amnesia? what kind of economy did GW BUSH inherit from Clinton? What kind of economy did Obama get from GW BUSH? When the house is on fire, you don't want to spend money to put out the fire?

[MRSAUCEDOG]

@asdfqwervd The debt was $10.626 trillion on the day Mr. Obama took office. The latest calculation from Treasury shows the debt has now hit $14.639 trillion.

The national debt increased $4.9 trillion during the EIGHT-YEAR presidency of George W. Bush. The debt now is rising at a pace to surpass that amount during Mr. Obama's FOUR-YEAR term. but the rest of you left wing liberals and your socialist president, keep blaming BUSH.

Obama is manufactured by the cia, since child birth.

Before getting elected, Obama was thanking Bush for leaving the economy in a state of SHIT. After getting elected, Obama realized he's the black man sent into clean after the filth left by the White man.
