Stewie makes light of the issue and spins it to the advantage of the RNC; it bothers me that this problem isn't taken much more seriously. At the same time the solution we have now clearly isn't working, clearly it's time to make some major changes to the leadership of the nation.

I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian." - Henry Ford

Yes, we should institute HUGE cuts in the military, and start bringing in more revenue by killing the Bush tax-cuts, and doing away with the loopholes that people like RMoney use to shield their wealth from taxation.

The Debt rose $4.899 trillion during the two terms of the Bush presidency. It has now gone up $4.939 trillion since President Obama took office.

It's a shame they weren't as outraged from 2000 through 2008 when Bush started two unnecessary, unpaid-for wars, instituted unpaid-for tax-cuts; instituted a $700Billion unpaid-for prescription drug benefit, and approved a $700Billion TARP bailout to try to undo the Recession he caused.

If they had, then I would have more interest in their outrage now...

So you are admitting that Barry is more than twice as good at increasing the debt as any other President in the history of the nation? I don't think that's something to be proud of no matter what your political affiliation is.

So you are admitting that Bush increased the debt more than any president in history up to the end of his administration...(And only created 3 million jobs in the process...After blowing a $236 Billion SURPLUS)... Thanks.
