so 26% don't know where it is, 40% of that 26% (11%) think it's the biggest scandal. You call 100% of them retarded based on 11%. Bigotry
there are plenty of good reasons for applying that label to the other 89%, including trickle down magic, jesus riding a dinosaur (jesus pony), putting minority rights to a majority vote (chris christie), and the dogged belief that you guys are fiscal conservatives despite your track record of blowing up budgets.

Oman, I can't argue it all with that last line. That's one of my biggest issues with the old guard republicans. Those guys are almost as bad as the democrats who bitched about the right doing it, but are not saying a word now that our budget has expanded to record highs. In fact, the left thinks that reducing future spending is austerity cuts now that they are in charge. It's sad.

have you been asleep for the last 30 years, or have you been taking drugs to increase your dementia out of reagan sympathy?

the republicans blow up budgets, the democrats put them back in order.

remember obama's promise to cut the deficit in half in his first term? he got there a year late. the deficit got revised down yet again, it will be down to 642 billion next year, down from 1.5 trillion that obama inherited.

We are still experiencing record spending and debt no matter how you want to spin it. 10T debt when he took over, 17T now. You guys have already increased our debt more than any other president and if you remove the king of suck Bush, he has incurred more debt than all other presidents combined in 220 years. You call that a success.

My point is, you are using Bush as your baseline for Obama's success. That's a bell curve even you should be ashamed of.

you also insist on including the stimulus passed by dems as part of Bush's deficit. That lacks integrity and honesty. Know how I know you're a liberal?

not at all.

obama's slashing of the budget would fare just as well against any other "fiscally conservative" (LOL!) republican.

can you name any other republican who has taken the deficit down $800 billion dollars? taken the deficit from 10% of GDP to 4% of GDP?

you say WE have increased the debt, but really we inherited it. if you inherit a withering old house that will need $10k in repairs every year, did you cause those repairs to be needed? nope.

stop blaming us for making the repairs that you guys made necessary, and telling us how shitty a job we are doing at fixing your wreck.

We have the biggest liar liar pants on fire administration since Nixon and even they don't think the public is dumb enough to believe this lie Buck. You are outlying the admin team, that's impressive. Props.

Any budget the president has proposed increases the deficit. If left to Obama's economic policies our debt and deficits would be even worse. 3 cheers for gridlock!

when 40% of you who consider it to be the biggest scandal in american history yet don't know where it is, yes, i will stay.
It does point to the shocking education in Geography. And it points how most of the media has been in the Obama pocket, until now.

But, opinions are assholes that vote.

changing the subject is such an awesome way of avoiding the cold, hard truth: obama and clinton have cleaned up for the last 30 years of republican spending binges.

in fact, her approval rating went up the more the GOP beat this dead horse.

69% approval rating. no wonder the GOP is trying to manufacture scandal where there is none.
I don't think Hillary is a viable candidate for president in 2016. She is too polarizing. Liberals love her, conservatives hate her. There seems to be no middle ground, as there was for Obama and Bill Clinton. The GOP can beat every dead horse out there, and it won't backfire against them in regards to Hillary in 2016. If the Democrats play their cards right, they might have a chance in 2016 with a more moderate candidate. Hillary? No chance.

Well, I disagree. She has more chance now. See, to me this is the struggle for the under-bus toss.

Can Hillary throw Obama and so paint Biden as bus kill, or can they throw her?

It's going to be interesting if Biden and Clinton face off in debates. They may end up telling on each other in their lust for power and quest to beat down the opponent.

With any luck Jeb Bush wins the pub primary and we get another Clinton/Bush election. I fear this may be the only thing that will cause the average voter to research a viable 3rd party selection.
