The last word on this ridiculous Obama spending meme...

Lukey

Lukey

Senator
Who signed the 2009 spending bill (H.R. 1105 [111th]: Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2009) that greatly increased spending levels over the prior year (levels which have since been maintained) into law and when was it introduced into the House?

Mu.... as in presumes as fact things that are not true.

Spending levels DECREASED from 2009 - 2010. and since then have increased only at the rate of Inflation+GDP growth...http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/budget/fy2013/assets/hist01z1.xls

Spin spin spin Lukey.


The "last word" is that we would not be in this spending rate if the GOP Policies had not caused the greatest financial crash in human history.

I'm not surprised you dodged the question - who signed the spending into law?
 
What does that have to do with the link you supplied?

In point of fact, the highest yearly shortfall ever was Goerge W Bush's last fiscal year. It says so on your own link.

Your link aslo clearly shows the fiscal damage that the Bush tax cuts did at a time when we didn't need to borrow the money in order to give it away to the top 1/4 of 1%, which is where most of the money went.

That money didn't create jobs, as private sector job growth was flat throughout the entire Bush presidency, and it didn't "trickle down" in the form of increased wages for the working population ,as income remained almost flat.

And yet, the GOP argues vigorously for more of the same!!!!
 
What a dreamer. Has one of your spin posts ever been the last word on anything?

I still say y'all should have waited until after the inauguration to start blaming Obama for Bush. It would have given it a bit more chance of appearing to be sincere and born of some mental process. I guess when you live in a perpetual election cycle, you don't really see how silly and disingenuous that was.

Yes, I agree - because of his big spending (which Obama has doubled down on). And the Dems argue vigorously for more of the same!!!

Again, dodging the question isn't the same as refuting it. Simple Question - who signed that huge spending into law - Bush or Obama???
 
Bush signed the first bailout and necessitated the others. But you knew that, so you do the Hannity style "have you quit beating your wife yet? Yes or no?" routine. Like Obama's signature on a bail out absolves Bush for the deepest recession since the Great Depression.

Simple question: Who took us from surplus to recession as his first official act?

I'm talking about the 2009 spending that Obama is blaming on Bush - who signed the Omnibus Bill (and who added even more supplemental spending during the year)? If you don't know all you need to do is Google it...
 
You have a silent supporter here. ORR is "disliking" all of my responses. Hahahahahaha!

Lukey,I know good and well you have seen the graphs of spending 1.4,compared to the rest.Nutter was just on with the graph.

Quit peeing on my leg,Etc. It is not working. I am already upset that someone would steal my flowers a couple of weeks ago and today my Veterans flag holder was taken. They sell them for scrap. What kind of a country do we live in that does not even honor the dead?

If it was signed in 2009, the current POTUS signed it, so what? Do you feel better about Bush now?

I never liked Bush. I like Obama even less. And thank you for acknowledging that Obama owns the 2009 spending (all of it) and is responsible for the 17% increase in spending that year (as well as the failure to figure out how to reduce it from that inflated level since). Now, lets reject Nutting's nutty "analysis" that suggests Obama is fiscally responsible, mmkay?
 
Who signed it into law?

Reading problem? 245 Reps, 62 Senators and Obama all signed off on it. 24 of them were Republicans.

Keep on doing the Hannity routine, though. Keep acting like Obama is King of America for signing a bill passed easily with bipartisan support.

Who signed the 2009 spending into law Mary Anne? All of it? Nutter (LOL - I like that better than his real name) should have been laughed off the stage...

Obama did not have a serious choice; he had a fate. That fate was to pick up the pieces of the most catastrophic presidency in modern times. The final bouquet - after emptying the public coffers with no serious boost to employment, profits or growth - was the financial collapse, which both shrunk the economy, decimated revenues to 50 year lows, and automatically increased spending for the unemployed and poor in desperate need of help. Once you account for that - and the Nutting graph indeed shows that this was baked in the cake by the time Obama was elected - Obama has been, like most modern Democrats, far more fiscally conservative than any modern Republican.

Is Sullivan wrong Lukey? He is a republican.

LOL! No he isn't. He was a neocon who (briefly) thought he was a Republican (like Lieberman). If Sullivan was right, Obama would have figured out how to get the economy going again (hint - NOT by pushing unions, subsidized green energy and free health care) and the spending would have been able to have been reduced by now. The idea that Obama is "fiscally conservative" is a (sad) joke...
 
and is responsible for the 17% increase in spending

No one conceded that because it isn't true to any degree. Again, can you read? If so, show me where someone "acknowledged" your phony contention as anything more than partisan spin.

Shocked to hear that you like the lying, dumb disaster guy more than the smart, honest one elected to turn it around.
