I don't think revenues being down forced Obama to double spending for his favorite money wasting departments. The blame Obama's predecessor model is long since stale.

When the country was on the brink of another great depression did you expect him to come in with massive budget CUTS?

I didn't realise that failing to increase spending by over 30% was a cut. Could you explain this to us?

Greece is going through the SAME crap right now that WE are going to have to go through. We are going to HAVE to make major cuts in spending and we are going to have to RAISE taxes.


So Obama's ridiculous increases in spending need to be unwound. Now would be a good time to start. Just say no to the Obama / Pelosi Administration.

We are going to HAVE to make major cuts in spending and we are going to have to RAISE taxes.

Raising taxes only works when the goal is strangling the economy. As REagan and others have proven it is far more effective to grow the economy to increase government revenues.
