LJ you must guzzle a gallon of Barry's Koolaid on an hourly basis.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Isn't it pathetic that Mutt is so truthful. He hasn't learned how to be a liar every time he opens his mouth like Oblimpo.

Oh you mean like starting TWO unfunded wars (at $4 TRILLION and counting) and then keeping them off the books so they won't show up in the deficit under your replacement takes over?
Amazing, making statements that are so stupid. You need to go look up and I want you to prove that the two wars were unfunded and kept of the books so they would not show up. Either you live in a comic world or your just clueless. Explain how they were kept off the books. Explain how they are/were unfunded. For being unfunded, Congress keeps approving the money to FUND them. But then you like your buddy obama is in a dream world. You really need to pull your head out and get into reality.
Anyone with even a small amount of common sense knows that part of the defeceit is due to the wars. You can't hide or keep that money off the books. It is all figured in. Congress has to approve it. Nothing hidden.
As has been widely reported, the U.S. military largely paid for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan through emergency spending measures, in effect keeping wartime costs off the books. In addition to masking skyrocketing budget growth at the Department of Defense, this process allowed the services to treat budget supplementals as a piggy bank for new procurement.
Obama’s message? Not anymore.
"That is why this budget looks ahead ten years and accounts for spending that was left out under the old rules – and for the first time, that includes the full cost of fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan," he said. "For seven years, we have been a nation at war. No longer will we hide its price."

You have to be related to vl/dipsh(*/bullcr*(/whatever his name is. It is on the books, it is accounted for and it is why the defeceit has grown, not the only reason but one of the larger items there.
