You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Maybe it's because people like the stupid white trash girl in front of me at Casey's do things like buy frapaccinos with their ebt cards.

It is illegal to use an EBT card in a restaurant in most states. Maybe you live in a white trash state that sucks at the teat of the gov't. Or you were mistaken.

wkmac, your chart goes to 2001. It goes up after that, until the Obama policies took effect. Spending has tapered off since 2009

Really????
Our deficit has grown from $10 trillion to $16 trillion. Someone is spending something ??? Harry Reid says it's his job to spend the taxpayer's money. Are you saying he's been idle since 2009?

Its a level of delusionalism that exceeds all reasonable expectations. The way they make this claim is by blaming all of Obama's spending on Bush. Obama can take the title of a fiscal conservative by simply blaming his predecessor for all of his current reckless spending.

wkmac- Because the one thing Romney has proven is that he is a turn around specialist. He did it with numerous companies as head of Bain capital, he did it with the Salt Lake city winter olympics, and he can do it with this country. The people just need to give him a chance and our future will be bright.

There is no reason to think republicans will cut overall spending. At the time of the stimuluss, republican governors railed against the wasteful federal spending...an proceded to take the handout! They had the chance to show what kind of deficit hawks they were and proved they were more intereted in elections.
