"Come on, stop with the stupid number tricks. The day Bush left office Debt/GDP was 60 something %, a few days ago according to the CBO, it hit 100%. Those are the real numbers."
Nadine, Nadine, Nadine, those are the "stupid number tricks."
You can't take one statistic out of the hat and claim that your number conclusively proves that the large and growing debt problem is on Obama.
Ed, this is calling trying to have it both ways. You can't post a chart of Debt/GDP ratios, proclaim how bad Bush looks on it, then claim it just "one statistic out of the hat" when Obama's numbers are pointed out.
the economy, the role of government, the politics of debt, the effect of lobbyists, the chamber of commerce impact, international relations, nature driven events, the cost of wars, the effects of bubbles like the tech bubble that helped Clinton and the housing bubble that helped Bush W and then burst and hurt the economy under Obama
So all this stuff is no excuse for Clinton or Bush, but a great big excuse for Obama? Do you even remember 9/11 and the recession that followed it? Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, Ed. |
