Thread: Obama's approval rating grows following memorable week

At least you've stopped making up crap and fudging data about deficits and debt. On to new set of fact destruction now it seems.

Well, yes, I do have a problem understanding that gibberish. It reads like a delirium.

Cannot help but notice how digitusmedius likes your post in attacking Reagan which must mean he has a problem with Obama's spending record as well.

United States Government Debt to GDP | 1940-2015 | Data | Chart | Calendar

Yes, well that's what a massive recession like Bush's Great Republican Recession will do to an economy and the refusal of republicans to now raise taxes on the people who created that recession (and who are already richer than ever before) to repair the damage they caused. The republicans have succeeded in putting us on the path to being a third world country. SUCCESS!!! tea bagger version.

He set a terribly irresponsible precedence for every president that followed and we'll never be below a trillion in debt again. That is your heroes legacy.

Yes, I have seen it done as I have done it in the past when proven wrong.

Your problem is you cannot see the big picture and there are a lot like you. The big picture is the peace dividend created by Reagan defense spending which caused the destruction of the Soviet Union and thus created an opportunity for future President's to not have to spend as much on Defense as he did.

You also ignore the benefits of creating 17 million jobs and doubling the economy which created for many less of a need from that so called govt. help. That should translate int0 less spending. So when you say he set an example for others to spend more just goes to show how little you know about return on investment

But these tea baggers seem to think we can get something for nothing. They're the biggest free-loaders this country has ever seen. They don't want government to touch their Medicare (which shows us how clueless they are) and they don't want to have to pay anything for it (which shows us how idiotic they are). Most three year olds are more responsible than these clowns.

Except you don't realize that Reagan cut taxes, increase employment by 17 million which grew FIT revenue by 60%.

Why should people have their medicare and SS put on budget when the taxes were created to fund those programs for that purpose? Imagine that, people upset that they were forced to contribute to SS and Medicare only to have it put on budget and spent creating an unfunded liability

Not sure what you understand as the role of our Federal Govt. but it appears you have been indoctrinated into believing what you are told that Govt. is here to save you from yourself and provide all that you want. The true clowns are the people who don't understand the role of the Federal Govt. and transfer personal responsibility to them

Try to keep up, this chart shows other President's debt which has been claimed here as non existent.

It is amazing that all those idle threats yet never posting any data that refutes what I have posted. Your surplus data is only half the story and ignores Inter-government holding deficits which led Clinton to have debt from 4.1 to 5.7 trillion. Amazing how that 1.6 trillion dollar debt of Clinton is so much better than the 1.7 trillion of Reagan's. LOL. Sorry but you are out of your element here
