What is going on with this debt? What's going on in Washington?

BTW: the source here is the International Monetary Fund, which I am sure some will say is also not credible.

Well, Barrack Hussein Obama, or should I call you Barrack "epic failure" Obama? That George W. Bush is to blame for all this disaster is really ringing hollow. When has the time come for Obama to finally take ANY responsibility? I am sick and tired of him giving billions to his buddies around the world, and is unable to even properly fund education. What the hell is this imbecile's defect?

Did Obama not promise, in his 2008 campaign, to REDUCE the federal debt by 50% over his first term? He LIED!

Did Obama not promise in his first State of the Union Address, that Obamacare would be budget neutral? He LIED!

The only thing Obama didn't lie about is taking lots of very expensive vacations on the taxpayer dime and staffing the government with his beloved "Tsars" that have zero accountability.

How is it possible, that this brilliant Barrack Hussein Obama, with supermajorities in both the House and Senate, was not able to pass a BUDGET. The last Federal Budget was signed by George W. Bush.

I know who I am going to vote for in 2012: Anybody but Obama. Come to think of it, with a fiscal performance like the Hawaiian has provided, I would rather have Mr. Putin as President, or the mentally handicapped janitor from school, as Obama has proven himself to be an abject failure. Even according to MSNBC (also probably not a credible source to some here), not only do we have record unemployment, record budget deficits, record number of jobs being exported oversees, record polarization in the public, but Obama has created a new standard for misery in the population.... Conclusion: Obama and his idiots F***** America.

At least now though, Michelle Obama can surely be proud when she waddles around in those tini-tiny, 1 1/2 inch heels in which she cannot even walk properly in while the press calls this "Miss size 28" some high-fashion diva.

Enough of my rant.. I'm going to have another glass of red wine. Perhaps that will help me get over my feeling wishing that the ISS and all the other space junk plummets on Washington! I'm going to get me a voodoo doll and see if they work on these stupid, idiots on Capital Hill and in the White House. Obama doesn't seem to understand that the country is broke and as sitting president, he is responsible - NOT George W. Bush. Then again, a community organizer never actually take responsibility for anything. All they do is point fingers, and never at themselves.

The time has come in 2012 to totally clean house in Washington - for the sake of the country.

I certainly appreciate such objective reasoned analysis. I doubt that Rush Limbaugh could do a better job.

I don't see any reason to waste any more bytes here.

For anyone else who has already activated the ignore feature, I apologize for quoting this message.

Perhaps I shouldn't have quoted the IMF, as the figures don't make Obama look like the super-genius that so many people claim he is. Perhaps the Tea Party is responsible to the budget crisis. After all, they are demanding "fiscal responsibility". It seems that even having a federal budget is too responsible for the good Democrats controlling Washington.

FY 2008, $161 billion budget deficit. - that's bad
FY 2011, $1400 billion budget deficit (projected) - what the hell Obama?

FY 2009, 2010, $1 Trillion PLUS budget deficits... WHO IS TO BLAME? Barrack Hussein Obama and his pack of idiots!

At least that's a compliment! I want my own show on Talk Radio!

Who said there was anything wrong with your figgers? I'm sure they're accurate. You know, I could spend the next five minutes explaining it all, but why? I can tell you right now, the greatest financial minds on Earth could write up a thorough and complete description of how we got where we are and you'd only believe the parts that make Obama look bad.

I'm sure you're a nice young lady, and you seem like you're smart enough, but you don't have enough open in your mind to cover the hours for the refund window at the DMV.

I'd say you have a pretty good shot.

TD, I never realized that you were such an expert about women's clothing. If we see any pictures of you running around in a calico frock, we might just have to sick DJ on you.

This is so typical of many liberals (most are really good people). They have all the right answers, given with total smugness of conviction, certain in the knowledge that all who disagree are "close minded" Yes, you are quite right - I do hate Obama. I despise this epically incompetent man. You know what, he started off with such promise. He could have been a good, if not great president. But he had to model his administration on that of Jimmy Carter - and take it to a new, destructive level. Obama is Carter on steroids!

I guess because of all the Democrat enlightenment in Washington D.C., there hasn't been a federal budget passed since FY 2009, nor has the deficit grown 43% since this "gentleman" took over.... Remember... close your eyes and start chanting: "George Bush is to blame - Obama is the savior!" and all will be well.

I wonder the psychological underpinnings are behind the need to not only ridicule our political opponents, but also their families. And people fault Obama for maintaining areas of privacy. If he didn't work hard to protect his daughters from the public eye, there is no telling what the vicious blogosphere would try to do to those beautiful young ladies.

The problem with blaming Obama is that his role is kinda like being promoted to replace Captain Smith on the Titanic AFTER it hit the iceberg.

So, it is Captain Obamas fault that all this water is in the ship now. When Captain Bush left, there was only a few inches.

I have never said anything about those children. Their privacy should be maintained. Both Barrack and Michelle Obama are in the public spotlight. Michelle Obama is actively campaigning for her husband, and therefore fair game. I guess the flip side of the coin, the constant attacks for eight years on George Bush and his wife, by liberal elements are perhaps justified because they are Republicans? Or Why?

I even recall a movie produced that depicted and glorified the assassination of an American President that looked very much like George Bush. That was praised as "free speech" by the left.

"Dessent is the highest form of patriotism" was constantly heralded by the left... yet, when it is directed against Obama, it is a form or treason..... Why is that? Or am I imagining all these things?
