I have no idea. I stumbled across it once on TV and it reminded me of the skit on SNL with the two homely-looking ladies running the radio program. Radio talk shows are garbage. A waste of time, an experiment in self-importance by the host. That's with the exception of Phil Hendrie and a few sports talk radio shows of course.Stingray24 wrote:

He was a Democrat. We all know what Democrats do. Even the fish know what Democrats do. The general public knew what Republicans would do and they got shafted for it in the end and the same will apply here. From extreme to extreme. Right wingers are idiots and so are left wingers. Centre right and centre left, countering and balancing each other are the only way forward. It's rich that you seem to blame the administration for the current mess for which the previous administration must take the lion's share of creating/not preventing. Right wing tunnel vision.

Managing economies and nations is a bit like steering a boat. If you've ever steered one you'll know it's quite easy to oversteer when trying to keep a fixed course in a winding river. Oversteering one way prompts corrective oversteering. People like you are responsible for the cycle of oversteering to 'stay on course', getting wilder with every swing.

I watched the same coverage you did. I didn't see him pretending he wasn't going to spend like a mother fucker. And the majority of the American public voted for him. Deal with it, just as we had to deal with that ignoramus neo-imperialist patsy Bush for 8 years.[TUF]Catbox wrote:

maybe this will help... Bush is a rank amatuer compared to the messiah when it comes to spending...
and we are all dealing with it here... left and right...
and the poor and lower middle class are taking it the hardest.

So we have republicans crying about recounts, racism and now the national debt.
Next we'll hear Catbox complaining because a Democratic governor wasn't faithful to his wife.
Remember when I said his posts are all the same? The above is a prime example. Just because you post a picture 1,000 times doesn't make it any more relevant, nor will it make more people listen to you.

I add nothing to the thread? You claim your little chart added something to the thread when it really had nothing to do with it in the first place. You just had to get your little anti-Obama repeating rhetoric in somehow. Yes, we know. Obama's adding to the national debt. I don't think anyone here doesn't know that. Repeating it in every thread isn't going to magically make us understand it more. I think you're a good guy too (unlike another "hardcore conservative" here who shall go nameless- not lowing), but the anti-Obama rhetoric from a lot of people here can get ridiculous. Kmar even pointed it out in another thread but I can't remember where.
P.S. New York's doing just fine. The media might tell you otherwise, but we'll survive. As we always have.

Do you think it is as rediculous as blaming Bush for global warming and hurricanes? Lets be fair, this forum relentlessly ripped Bush a new ass at every turn, and it didn't really matter if he had anything to do with the issue or not.Poseidon wrote:

What Obama is being blamed for and ripped for, is actually his doing.
Nobody on here ever actually blamed Bush for global warming... Just ranted about his administration not doing much about it.lowing wrote:

As bad as Bush was, he isn't responsible for most of it either.
Our banking and lending practices have been askew for decades now. The only thing new is that the debts have finally caught up with us. Obama is now charged with fixing things, but bailouts are sadly one of the few things that can be done.
I'm not suggesting that Obama has exhausted all options, but you really can't blame him for some of these bailouts.
Yes you can blame him. I still fail to see how spending record amounts is a way to decrease debt. I believe spending should be cut and taxes lessened.
"The President does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation" - Barack Obama (a freshman senator from Illinios)
Spending should be cut. Taxes are about as low as they can go at the moment. Maybe later we can cut taxes some.LividBovine wrote:

The point was no more spending. I say we can blame hime for doing the bailouts as much as I blame Bush for his spending and bailout. It is all wrong. My idea of small federal government calls for drastic cuts in spending and taxes.

Do you honestly think McCain would've allowed all these banks to fail without some sort of bailout? He voted for the first bailout just like Obama.LividBovine wrote:

It's doubtful McCain would've reacted much differently from Obama with regard to bailouts. He probably would've spent less, but only the Ron Pauls of the world truly support nonintervention.
People with any real power always intervene on these things, because the last time a president just sat back (Hoover), it caused the Great Depression.
And yes, government spending can pull an economy out of a recession, but it requires careful planning.
Nevertheless, I do support cutting spending, and I'm against any further bailouts.
Day by day things get more ominous. Time to stockpile my 2012-shelter, boys.
