It doesn't make any logical sense to complain about a debt, then triple it while still complaining about the previous debt, then saying that the new and improved tripled defecit is going to help the economy.
I could go on and on, not taking sides here, I just notice most the really screwy ideas from liberals.

I've been tested for developmental stuff numerous times- they've all come back negative except for the fact that I have a high IQ. And I'm a liberal.
I mean unless you want to prove that all my posts and threads indicate that I'm developmentally challenged?
I didnt call them retards, that was your word not mine. Maybe you just realized the truth.
Well saying no to peope murdering their own child is no different than saying no to murder in general. Are you trying to say you are pro-murder?
I dont think most conservatives so no to some social programs. Just no to the ones created by FDR which basically create a welfare state where someone can have the same things a working person has without working. Also, they dont say no to diplomacy, they try it, but if it doesnt work they move on to what does. That is way more sensible than playing games with some idiot like Hussein or Ahmybreathisbad.
All the above were rooted in selfishness because liberals want a government that will take care of them so they dont have to risk anything or face consequences when they make mistakes. They want a Moooommmmyyy and Daaaaaaadddyyyyyyy to come and rescue them for the rest of their lives.
Prime liberal magical thinking here. Blame Bush for a deficit that was partially created by two wars caused by us being attacked on 911. The deficit was also created by a declining economy. A president cant control the economy he can only attempt to limit the affects. I guess in your mind we wouldnt have a deficit because we would have just gave the terrorists a time out or a gentle smack on the hand and hoped they learned their lessons. Bush didnt label a bunch of Americans terrorists unlike Obamas DHS director who labeled anyone not a liberal a potential terrorist. Jesus.
No I am saying the government should treat everyone fair and let people live and die by their own choices. If retirees need more help, its their own fault for not saving their money or making stupid investments. Why should we have to help them? Also, most people regardless of party support helping trully handicapped or mentally ill people, but you cross a line when you want to hand out money to people with add or slightly low iq, like its our fault somebody is an idiot.
Typical liberal thinking. Liberals think they have a right to the government solving their problems and taking care of them. That infringes on everyone elses right to keep more of their hard earned money.
Lets censor me because I disagree with you. I didnt say you had to read it or post here. Typical liberal tactic of deflecting their problems onto everyone else.
I’m not going to argue with you about abortion, but suffice it to say I am not “pro-murder”. I will not be baited that easily.
Partially created by two wars, yes. Due to 9/11, no. We started one war due to 9/11, and one war for WMDs that magically disappeared when we got there (we get the oil though!). Bush didn’t decrease overall spending by even 1% to reflect the “declining economy”. You also don’t know my political beliefs, so I would refrain from assuming anyone that sees your OP for what it really is, is an extreme liberal.
I like how you believe a President can limit the affects of a declining economy. Kind of like FDR’s social spending to get us out of the Great Depression and how Bush and Obama enacted massive government spending to ensure we didn’t see another one. Bush never directly labeled anyone as a terrorist and neither has Obama. The DHS report said nothing of the sort about anyone who is not a liberal a potential terrorist.
The people affected by Enron weren’t idiots. The people who lost their retirement money due to the corruption in the banking industry weren’t idiots. The people who lost everything in Katrina or Ike weren’t idiots.
