Life must be really hard in this booming economy


That is called thanks Obama. You know the guy who had 5 quarters of economic growth better than bonespurs. All without having to cut taxes.

By the way, since the only additional growth added under trump is from the only significant legislation he has managed to pass in 18 months, the tax cuts, how do you feel about the trillions that will be added to the debt? Trillions that would not have been added if Obama's policies and tax plans had continued.

But, if you want to give credit to a guy who doesnt read, has the attention span of a flea, and cant understand complex policy ("who knew healthcare was so complex" - fricking everyone but bonespurs), go ahead. I'll just laugh at you.

I’m not getting into a political spat with you but a democrat talking about deficits is absolutely hysterical.

And Obama did not create this economy, tax cuts, optimistic and confident outlooks on the future of Trump’s policies, and reduced regulations did.

Do you realize how insane you sound? I know people joke about sky screamers but goodness man, you aren’t far off.

I didn’t even vote for Trump

I mean seriously.... do you own a mirror?

Same reason I stopped listening to Walton and Johnson. They went from being entertaining to 4 hours of politics.


Man you nailed it. Once they switched to exclusively bashing Obama and now have stayed exclusively bashing the left their actvhas gotten stale and the comedy is purely spiteful.

I used to listen to them for entertainment and light hearted laughter in the morning. I don’t want this heavy shite all the time.

I'll watch the local news at 10 and then turn it to Harry Connick, he doesn't get very political. Not really a late night show though, just a replay from day time.

1. I'm not a Democrat

2. Democrats are a frick TON better for the debt and deficit than Republicans and that has been obvious for 40 years and 6 administrations. Every Republican administration cuts taxes and jacks the shite out of spending. Ever even heard of Reaganomics? Hell, he invented the massive deficit spending. Clinton raised taxes and we got a surplus. GWB comes in, massive tax cuts twice, jacks spending again, and creates the great recession. The massive stimulus package to unfrick the Bush economy runs up trillions more. Then trump arrives and immediately adds another 2 trillion to what would have been added by continuing Obama's policies.

You are a blind fool if you cant understand Republicans are worse for the deficits. It isnt even close or debatable

You need to take his over to the politics board.

You also need to look up what actually happened under Clinton. He tried jacking up taxes and Hillary tried to push through Hillary care and it was an absolute blood bath in the midterms. Newt Gingrich put forth the contract wih America and Clinton, ever the consulate politician, took advantage and passed what the fiscally responsible R’s wanted.

Clinton also rode this massive wave of a new technology called the internet that has produced more money for more people than just about anything else. He rode the dot com bubble and government mandated sub prime housing loans, in addition to a republican held congress, to a fantastic economy. It wasn’t taxes and responsible spending but a technological revolution similar to the development of electricity in terms of business innovations.

If you’re trying to get me to say that Bush was a good president, it won’t happen, but you need to open your eyes and realize the GDP growth we currently see never happened under obama and only happened due to decreased taxes and rolled back regulations. We are the world’s largest economy. Making our economy more business friendly and less burdened by taxes is only good. But I’m with you the R’s in Congress are shite and keep passing outrageous spending bills.

Wow I appreciate a lot of your post as a fiscal conservative but bro, you literally skipped eight years in your timeline


Like just hopped right over the past eight years

Also, you don’t realize that Democrats are a massive part of that problem as well either? Democrats wouldn’t ever consider cutting spending they just want to increase it and take it out on the American worker.

Republicans only have half the equation down but Washington is so overwhelmed with RINO’s and establishment republicans that aren’t conservative, that cutting spending is a losing battle there too

That doesn’t mean I’ll stop fighting for it and turn and vote for the party that thinks the government deserve every nickel I have to my name.

Neither party has been good for the deficit because 95% of our politicians are only interested in serving themselves.

Clinton is also the reason the American dollar started going in the fricking toilet. More money was printed and put into circulation during Clinton's 8 years in the White House than in the entire previous history of the US.

1. Obama had 5 different quarters better than Trumps best quarter (the one that just ended) in terms of GDP growth. Look it up.

2. The tiny bump in GDP growth from tax cuts will be adding 2 trillion to the debt. Plus interest. Very very insanely stupid tradeoff that we will be paying for soon enough.
