Cutting the President some slack on Deficits
   
The emerging narrative in political circles is that the White House has a deficit problem. Glenn Beck, over at Fox News, insists that Obama is "spending us into oblivion." Politico called the recent round of job-stimulus appropriations a "spending binge." Sen. Judd Gregg (R-N.H.) deemed this an era of "fiscal recklessness and irresponsibility," the extent of which is "shocking to the American taxpayer."

The drumbeat is loud enough to put Democrats on notice. The president has increasingly discussed the need to get the deficit under control in recent speeches. And in Congress, a proposal to set up a bipartisan commission to force deficit reduction is gaining steam among the party's more conservative members.

All of which may be vital, say budget analysts say. But the hysteria over the deficit misses a fundamental point: the country's fiscal problems largely aren't due to Obama but rather his predecessor.

I can't copy the pie chart on the article, but essentially 41% of the Budget is Bush's bailout.

I might take Obama serious about wanting to get rid of the drficit if he would stop talking about spending more and more money on govt programs. He is like the drunk that swears off drinking as he's driving to the bar.

1. The deficit is only a political problem not a real one....
   
for the short term anyway.

Uh huh I'm sure that was your exact words when Bush was in office.
Obama needs to grow the hell up and start doing things to fix this problem instead of whining that Bush screwed up so bad when the truth is the Dems were in power those last 2 years and he as a senator supported the policies he is now bitching about.


I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Funny, they seem to forget completely 0bama's own deficit addiction.

So because Bush--with a democrat budget-writing congress--overspent by $400 billion it isn't Obama's fault he and the budget-writing democrat congress can overspend by $1.7 trillion.

Am I reading this correctly?

Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Well....when you consider how a typical DUmmie handles his/her/its personal finances, you could understand a statement like that........in a warped kind of way......

Fun Fact:

The democrats have raised the debt limit TWICE sine Obama was anointed for a total of almost 35% increase....IN LESS THAN A YEAR!!
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Reagan has been out of office for 21 years and they still blame him.
