Democrats would rather fight than solve problems

[Budmantom]

Economists worldwide almost universally attribute the potential for another recession in the U.S. on the European crisis. But of course you clearly see that it's Obama's fault.

No it can't be Obama's fault he is simply a bystander, how can you fault a man that is trying to spend us into prosperity. No one more qualified to get us out of a recession than a community organizer, they know how to get an economy going.

Spending our way to prosperity is a proven solution just like global warming is a proven scientific fact.

Can't argue with socialist facts.

Government spending IS a form of taxation because you have to pay for all spending/borrowing sooner or later.

Spending/borrowing is at an ALL time high.

Are you suggesting that the problem is that we aren't spending enough?


Please define what enough would be?

BTW if spending is the solution then why did the economy take off in the 90s when spending was cut?

I'll take a wild guess and say the DOT com boom?

Eh, I see what you are saying, but:

It seems a little convenient to always refer to Democrats as 'tax and spend liberals' and imply that what they are doing is raising taxes at this very moment, whereas Republicans are just 'deficit spending'.

If we're talking about enacting programs/spending that will require additional taxes in the future, then you know Republicans have just been 'taxing and spending' as well.

You are trying to convince a Republibot.

Republicans: I want a balanced budget

Medicare Part D, Iraq War, Afghanistan War, no tax increases, bank bailouts...
