Please do the math. In 234 years, we borrowed 9 trillion dollars. That's 12168 months. That's a Trillion every 152 months or every 12.6 years.
Obama has borrowed 3.5 Trillion in just 19 months. That's 2241.5 TRILLION over the 234 years. It's NOT just a little more than Bush, it's significantly more. It's insane. It's more than ALL other past presidents COMBINED.

Tuesday: No more biased than you are about Bush and republicans. I definitely can't be bothered to waste my time searching for the posts where you have stooped below the level that "V" was mentioning in his post that I responded to. I don't care enough, and your opinion doesn't affect me in the slightest bit, as mine doesn't affect you. Get over it.
Ferris Bueller: Or them using some old 'new deal' law that allows them to have a their cattle businesses graze free on federal land without the tax payers seeing a penny.
Ferris Bueller: I read about them.... going on about not letting people tread on you then getting compulsory sale orders on where they wanted a pipeline.

rod03801: To a certain respect I can disagree. Our UK law though respecting freedom of speech also respects that people can go over the top. In that.. you are right ALL sides do it. Yet here in the UK .. criminal prosecution can follow.
The Col: if i where you i would be here Col chickin & if you ever find the time i sent you messages in private please reply to them Pal this goes back to where i first post to you here Pal & met you bud
Sujet: he lost an election for speaking out against Rush and his insanity
Tuesday: It may have been Representative Bob Inglis (R-SC) who spoke out against Rush & Beck. He lost big in the GOP primary to the Tea Party candidate. Yes. That's the same Tea Party "revolution" funded mainly by Rupert Murdoch and the oil barren Koch Brothers - not the grass roots.
(V): Um, maybe YOU personally didn't. "We "libs" (as you call us) did not go to the lengths to disrespect Bush as you do Obama. We had a go at policy, mistakes as you'd expect."
But plenty of "libs" have gone to even greater lengths. Including a few posters on this board. Don't get me wrong, I have JUST AS LITTLE respect for George Bush as I do for Obama. My point is that your statement is not accurate at all.
Plus, it's all just foolishness anyway. Both sides do the exact same thing. Regardless of if "2 wrongs, don't make a right". Until the end of time, Dem's will insult republicans, and republicans will insult dem's. It's just silly for either side to whine about the other side doing it. Both sides are just as good at being nasty.
Tuesday: ...... that is not a good sign. It also blows to high heaven this board's conservative element and them forever them harking on about how they have so little mediaon 'their' side.. guess for them radio and newspapers don't count.. or that of some strange new invention called "the in-ter-net"
Sujet: Re:The right wants Obama to fail even if it means the country suffers just so they can be in power.
Tuesday: Our last government bailed out the banks as did Obama even though Bush knew it was coming..
.. If they had failed, the entire financial system would have collapsed. Anyone wishing that to happen is either nuts, ignorant, stupid or a combination of all three.
Sujet: Re:The right wants Obama to fail even if it means the country suffers just so they can be in power.
Tuesday: Well if that is the case then the right does not deserve to be in power. Any party that gloats on the failure of it's government when such failure causes suffering to it's own fellow citizens is not worthy of being elected. Locked up in an asylum more like!!
Artful Dodger: We "libs" (as you call us) did not go to the lengths to disrespect Bush as you do Obama. We had a go at policy, mistakes as you'd expect.
As for free speech.. there comes responsibility.. you cannot moan in the future on how anyone talks about your hero's.. such as Beck and Palin.. or the Tea party.
> Did you NOT see how much money that idiot is borrowing against our future? > Did you not see the comparison over the last 200 plus years vrs his 19 months in office?
Is that Bush or Obama? The truth is that every president has always borrowed more than the previous guy, even Bill Clinton, who ended with a surplus, borrowed more than the previous administrations. George W. Bush borrowed more than any president in history. That information you posted a while back assigned to Obama the bailout for the banks, and that was George W. Bush's idea. Obama merely enacted a lot of policies born at the end of the Bush administration in agreement with the Federal Reserve. In that sense it is unfair to blame Obama for a lot of policies generated in a Republican administration.
The Col: The big difference is that Obama is a dunce when it comes to running a country. Did you NOT see how much money that idiot is borrowing against our future? Did you not see the comparison over the last 200 plus years vrs his 19 months in office? How about the fact that the Democrats, under his leadership, passed a health care bill complete with loads of earmarks - some for the most ridiculous of things. It can't be paid for and will likely be repealed. Do you, like many of your liberal friends, not get it that Obama is a failure as a president? He's so unpopular that many would rather have Bush back?
You're so disingenuous. Opportunistic. So eager to point a finger without owning up to your own choices. Look back on your own posts and clean up your own bashings, both subtle and overt. Then you'll have the credibility with me and I'll listen.
But you won't. Have any of you libs actually made a coherent case for Obama's policies?
no
Try that sometime. Something that's not dripping with the usual sarcasm. Til then, you get what you give.
Artful Dodger: But weren't the repubs saying the same about Bush bashing? I expected more from you guys, two wrongs don't make a right do they? are you guys no better than those nutty libs?
The Col: You must mean like you libs showed for Bush. Free Speech here. We like to use it. You object to my Constitutional right to free speech? tsk, tsk
Sujet: And where are the liberals defending this fact?
From the moment Washington took the oath of office to the moment Obama took the oath, the US had borrowed 9 trillion dollars. In the last 19 months, we've borrowed 3.5 trillion dollars. You do the math. And Obama plans to borrow more.
Sujet: Here's a stat for you to show you all just how mad Obama is as President (I mean that as in crazy)
