Al, You asked for data to back up my point and I provided it. Your response is said data simply states the obvious ? Your links simply back up my point as well : America’s fiscal problem is excessive government spending, and deficits are merely a symptom of that underlying disease. BO's admin has taken GW's spending to a level , in the face of bankrupting our country, bordering on fiscal incompetency. Please explain your koolaid comment when your links confirm my point : While President Obama inherited a dismal fiscal legacy, that does not diminish his responsibility to propose policies to address our fiscal imbalance and put the weight of his office behind them. Although policymakers should not tighten fiscal policy in the near term while the economy remains fragile, they and the nation at large must come to grips with the nation’s long-term deficit problem. But we should not mistake the causes of our predicament. Are you of the belief that the increased levels of spending, having produced zero growth anywhere but in the federal government, exhibited by BO are good for the economy ?
