    Just believing a man has the experience doesn't make it so. Either post appropriate evidence of your claims or admit you haven't a clue what you're posting about regarding his "shitload of economic experience".

    Hey, whether you post it for me or not is irrelevant. I know it doesn't exist anyway, and your lame posturing only enforces the facts for me.

    You talked shit and were busted and now want to tapdance around the issue. Can't blame you though, it must suck to be backed into a corner and look foolish.

    In the case of Pres Bush and Pres Reagan, revenues increased thanks to the tax cuts

    Under Reagan, revenue DOUBLED in 8 years

    It was spending that caused the deficits

    With Clinton, conservatives took over Congres in 1994 and actually cut back on the spending

    It has happened twice

    First when you said Obama had a "shitload of economic experience"

    and when you said there was no pork in Obama's stimulus bill

    After seeing your "evidence" I have asked for no less than 20x, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for anything within a debate with you. The self proclaimed king of the board, refusing to properly engage in an honest debate and providing facts, how ironic.

    There is little "job creation" in the mega pork bill. Only the private sector can create permanent jobs

    Again, only 3% of the nearly $1 trillion goes to building/repairing roads and bridges. The rest is pork and political payoffs

    I'm done with you. Debating with you lately is akin to taking on Joe Steel or a "one hit wonder" who registers and disappears. Not worth my time. I'll step away now knowing you dodged instead of confronting.

    Happy debating!

For chrissakes Al Franken is probably going to the Senate!

    But it ain't just Bush's fault, Repubs have fucked up on so many fronts and so many issues in the past 8 years that I don't have the time to discuss them all or the persons involved there are so freakin many.

    What is sad though, what really depresses me is that it is painfully obvious that Repubs are no longer fiscally responsible conservatives. That maybe, just maybe, conservatism in respect to economics is not right, that it in fact has done much more damage to the economy than the liberal model. That can't be argued against with a straight face.
    the same guy who said clinton would win....

    i'll buy trust, but not experience. even mfm, er moderate democrat, said obama's experience didn't matter so much as character. people voted against bush more than they voted for obama. the simple fact is, obama did not have more experience. if he did, you could easily cite to it.

    obama himself, when asked if he had more economic experience than palin, cited his campaign as experience and the large budge his campaign had. now thats funny! couldn't cite anything, so he cites the fact he is running for office as his experience....

    I guess thats how it goes with a party hack, only Repubs get the credit for the good shit.

    You see i'm a "buck stops here" type of guy in regards to the President

    1. Bush to blame for 9/11
    2. Clinton to blame for all his philandering i.e. Monica
    3. Reagan to blame for huge deficit and commercial real estate crash towards the end of his time
    4. Bush to blame for huge deficit and deep recession towards end of his term
    5. Clinton to blame for International meddling in Kosovo
    6. Clinton to blame for bombing aspirin factory

    You see how being honest can be freeing?

    I answered your question Mike on taxes and spending - now you branch out in other areas

    BTW, here is more of the pork you said was not in the bill. Another great job creator eh?

    Washington, Jan 23 - The House Democrats’ trillion dollar spending bill, approved on January 21 by the Appropriations Committee and headed to the House floor next week for a vote, could open billions of taxpayer dollars to left-wing groups like the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). ACORN has been accused of perpetrating voter registration fraud numerous times in the last several elections; is reportedly under federal investigation; and played a key role in the irresponsible schemes that caused a financial meltdown that has cost American taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars since last fall.

    House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) and other Republicans are asking a simple question: what does this have to do with job creation? Are Congressional Democrats really going to borrow money from our children and grandchildren to give handouts to ACORN in the name of economic “stimulus?”

    Incredibly, the Democrats’ bill makes groups like ACORN eligible for a $4.19 billion pot of money for “neighborhood stabilization activities.” Funds for this purpose were authorized in the Housing and Economic Recovery Act, signed into law in 2008. However, these funds were limited to state and local governments. Now House Democrats are taking the unprecedented step of making ACORN and other groups eligible for these funds:

    “For a further additional amount for ‘Community Development Fund,’$4,190,000,000, to be used for neighborhood stabilization activities related to emergency assistance for the redevelopment of abandoned and foreclosed homes as authorized under division B, title III of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (Public Law 110–289), of which—

    “(1) not less than $3,440,000,000 shall be allocated by a competition for which eligible entities shall be States, units of general local government, and nonprofit entities or consortia of nonprofit entities[.]”

    “(2) up to $750,000,000 shall be awarded by competition to nonprofit entities or consortia of nonprofit entities to provide community stabilization assistance […]”
    The House Democrats’ trillion dollar spending bill also includes $1 billion for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. CDBG funds are given by the federal government to state and local governments which often contract with nonprofits for services related to the purpose of the grant
