Good stuff.

I don't need a chart to tell me that neither the GOP nor their supporters are fiscally conservative.
I've known this for years.

under bush, an entire new department of the federal government was created, and two unfunded
wars of choice began. that's all I need to know.

THE LAST 3 REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTS HAVE ACCOUNTED FOR $9.2 TRILLION OF THE INCREASE IN THE NATIONAL DEBT
Every President, from Truman to Carter, steadily paid down the staggering debt that was run up in our fight against Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. That pattern came to a screeching halt with Reagan/Bush and Bush. Clinton’s fiscal policy was a brief respite during this orgy of deficit spending.

Clinton's economic policies balanced 5 budgets, which is 5 more balanced budgets than the last 5 Republican presidents combined.

President Obama, like President Clinton, inherited a sea of red ink and a recession from his predecessor. He, like President Clinton, recognizes the importance of getting America back to work and then getting our fiscal house in order.

Good luck getting a RWer, supply side asshole to even look at the charts. There always seems to be an excuse for their Repub heroes.

Democratic congresses, wars, "entitlements"

The list goes on and new excuses are added as old ones get worn out or debunked.

They have faith. They need no data.
