When republicans see a deficit, they cut costs. When democrats see a deficit they raise taxes and add costs.

Yeah right, Bush cut taxes and spent like crazy. Going from a surplus to a big deficit.

News flash: Bush isn't a textbook conservative. And it was while congress was controlled by Dems under Bush that they spent the most.

Complete this sentence: If Bush spent like crazy, Obama spent like _____

Oh, I see. The deficit under Bush was not his fault but the deficit under Obama is his fault.

This has been posted a few times, but here it is yet again:
Bush with mixed congress: $11B deficit
Bush with republican congress: $339B deficit
Bush with democrat congress: $704B deficit

Obama with democrat congress: $2.7 Trillion deficit

I'm blaming Bush and the republican congress for the $339B deficit. The $704B deficit with the democratic congress, not so much. And I'm definitely blaming BO and the democratic congress for the $2.7 trillion deficit.

Tell me where I am wrong?

Well, you see Tracy, in the old days Republicans believed that the government should be thrifty. Then they watched the popularity of the Democrats increase as they spent more money. So the Republicans began to spend more money and the public liked that so they spent even more money. Well, not to be outdone by the Republicans, the Democrats spent even more money. As Cheney once said, the deficit is meaningless. So now we are in a race to see who can spend the most money.
So you know the result of all this -INFLATION!!!!!!

You were wrong the first time you turned on Fox News!!!! ha ha ha

Obama has introduced a plan for a non-partisan panel to investigate the truth behind these outrageous deficits, the vote comes up this tuesday and the Republicans are going to vote it down! They don't want you to know where the money went. They don't want to fix it because that means raising taxes, and this whole fucked up mess happened because Bush attacked IRAQ and didn't want to pay for it! He asked the American People to GO SHOPPING!!!

Bush's spend spend spend policies are DIRECTLY responsible for the mess we're in now. Watch the spin on tueday.

Close but no cigar. An Obama led panel of "non-partisan" experts are only going to provide "expertly" fudged numbers that will probably favor Lord Zero and whatever he wants.

And last I checked, Obama spent more than Bush. Zero had the chance to change things, but spent more money instead.
