It is way too easy to expose the accounting trick they used to try to make this stupid argument.
Baseline budgeting. I projected a 50 trillion dollar debt, but I only spent 25 trillion, so I saved 25 trillion. Re-elect me.

Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire.
unbelievable
said with a straight face ? The man is insane
Ask Bill Clinton if you have any questions what 'is' is.

That Rex Nutting(or Nothing as some call him)tried to convince readers that Obama was a fiscal conservative compared to Bush. Fortunately, the great majority of commenters on the article were wise to these stupid accounting tricks by Nutting, and called him on it. The lib commenters tried to counter that Politifact claimed this was “mostly true” but that argument was also shot down.
Debt under OBAMA has increased six trillion. He and his party are to blame. Period.
I’m not an over-spender but I can’t remember the last time I flew off on AF-1 on a date night to Paris and dined on lobster.
He's talking about the rate of increase.
If you spend a 500 billion over the 500 billion you spent last year, that's 100% increase. If you spend 500 billion more the next year, you have a 50% increase over the previous. See? Progress!
Let's see: before 'bam got in, we had eight years of Dem congress and house. Call them the Pelosi years.
We also had a little problem to straighten out with some Muslims. Seems they wanted to kill all of us.
Bush got the muslim thing more or less stabilized.
This was after Silicon Valley's bubble popped, by the way.
Then the bank crises hit. Maybe Bush should have let them crash and burn. I dunno.
Then came 'bam and he commenced to stimulate things.
He got real frugal with the Military budget and NASA, but less so with his social engineering plans. Not much to show for the stimulus.
The Dems kept both houses and they ramrodded Obamacare through.
But that hasn't started yet.
Nope, these programs are post-dated and will only hit next year. And they'll hit like a freight-train.
Spending cuts. Constitutionally, the budget goes year-by-year except for the Navy, which is a 2 year cycle.
So when a president or Congress promises future spending cuts, it’s fantasy.
Imagine Jimmy Carter specified 30 Billion in spending cuts, to be effective 33 years later, would Obama and Congress be held to that? Heck no. Even spending cuts promised three years out have no meaning.
When, ever, has a promised future spending cut materialized?
Yes they think we are that stupid, it’s worked for over 40 years. We ARE that stupid. We elect them!
Obama took the one time outlay of TARP and made it the new norm. Simple as that.
Very easy for Repubs to mock.
Just yours and Michelle’s outlandishly lavish vacations alone have been OUTRAGEOUS in the face of what this country has been going through. - May these lies return in your face like boomerangs and hit like a hundred pound blivit!
(Twinkie to Obama)
Spinning like a whirling dervish. It’s a wonder he doesn’t end up as a puddle of butter.FUBO.
