The turn-around is not going to happen overnight. It has taken us years to get in this mess. It's going to take years to get us out of it.

Good way to start is not make it worse in - 2 years than Bush

did in 8 with 9-11 and 2 wars. And he needs to STOP making bad decisions and start making GOOD ones. When is he planning on doing that?

As long as it takes to clean up the mess President Bush left - However long it takes

You don't clean up messes like that over night.

I stated info was available through research.... - of course, that means

you actually have to research and be prepared for the truth no matter who it reflects on. The fact is, 3 trillion has been added to the deficit since Obama took the reins. That can be verified at multiple sites. That is about the same amount added during BOTH of Bush's terms.

The object should have been not to double the problem, but rather try to reverse it. Which he has not done. He has not addressed the deficit in any meaningful way since he took office; has done nothing but ADD to it.

You can deny that if you like....does not make it any the less true.

I reject your interpretation of data - nm

Bush didn't include his wars in the budget. It's just - sort of hidden, those billions of dollars.nm

$14T and growing at a rate of $4 billion a day! Isn't that just ducky! The government borrows 41 cents for every dollar it spends and we, the people, every man, woman, and child, equals $45,300. I'm so glad my 3-yo grandson will have a good life. Has the TARP money been applied to this debt? I didn't see anything in any article on that. What to do? Raising the debt ceiling will keep us "solvent" for a little while, but what happens when that limit is reached? Will they rais ...

I would like to lend a little perspective to the great debate below regarding national debt under Obama and Bush. By October 2008, due to increases in domestic and foreign spending, the national debt had risen to $11.3 trillion, an increase of over 100% from the start of the year 2000 when the debt was $5.6 trillion. This is an averge rise of 12.5% per year. The debt was $12.3 on Feb 5, 2010 which would roughly represent one year under the Obama administration. That wou ...

Presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.), a self-identified socialist, is proposing the largest peacetime expansion of government in history, backing $18 trillion in spending in one decade, according to a tally by the Wall Street Journal. According to the U.S. Treasury, our current total public debt, including both debt held by the public and intragovernmental holdings, exceeds $18 trillion. Sanders’ new expenditures would match this amount in 10 years. Sanders would dedicate ...

Bill Clinton did research at least before he decided to give tax breaks on VR. He saw how many jobs it would cost and how much money it would cost households. Obama saw this and jumped on it, raised the amount of the tax break, and here we are.....out of work for the most part or making pennies per day. I'm amazed at anyone who would vote for this person who not only wants to divide the country by race, but enjoys seeing Americans struggle or homeless. ...

He has to educate and explain logic to the news media and the masses, most of whom have no education whatsoever as to the history of the Middle East. He is currently, repeatedly, explaining that ISIS is not a declared political subdivision of territory. There is no PLACE to bomb, particularly. A lot of innocent people will be killed, maimed, injured. A lot of U.S. soldiers will be killed, maimed and injured. This will be worse than Vietnam, if we are to go in with a massive ground force. ...

If you're disgusted by politicians, or the "power class" - hang on half a second. You can't blame grabbers for grabbing power. It's the most predictable of human traits. The most fundamental premise of DEMOCRACY is that the electorate will hold ALL POLITICIANS, REGARDLESS OF PARTY, in check. It's citizens who don't give a crap about TRUTH and instead let the PARTY TELL THEM WHAT TO THINK who are to blame for the political situation that we find ourselves i ...

To the Washington Post, the New York Times and other left-wing outlets, journalism is blood sport. It’s not about a mission to deliver facts, but to fulfill an agenda. That couldn’t be clearer this week when Washington Post “Fact Checker” columnist Glenn Kessler tweeted on Monday that there was “applause in the newsroom as the Russia-leak scoop breaks the Hollywood Access record for most readers per minute.” It’s not the first time the mask slipped and reporters applauded ...

egacy will be the fed’s unprecedented collection of sensitive data on Americans by race. The government is prying into our most personal information at the most local levels, all for the purpose of “racial and economic justice.” Unbeknown to most Americans, Obama’s racial bean counters are furiously mining data on their health, home loans, credit cards, places of work, neighborhoods, even how their kids are disciplined in school — all to document “inequalities” between minoritie ...
