You might also consider buying a decent microphone – it’s hard to listen to such shrill audio.

First conservatives claimed that the “stimulus” would have no effect-now its clear it has helped and they claim it doesn’t matter because the economy will suffer when the effect subsides. Hey Peter, google “intellectual dishonesty”. Obama’s choices were stimulate the economy or simply “do nothing” and “hope for the best”. You all didn’t see the crisis coming but you know “for certain” what would’ve happened if no stimulus was used. Where were you when Bush was spending? Google “hypocrisy” next.

Fact is when Clinton left office, there were 23mil jobs created and an 800bil surplus. When Bush left office, there were 2.5mil jobs created and a 1.3tril deficit. You conservatives were cheerleading us borrowing 1.7tril for Bush’s tax cuts but where are the jobs that was to create? You kept silent as Bush swallowed his veto pen for years. Nearly 3tril in Iraq and all of a sudden you care about deficits. Bush told us that war would cost 60bil tops. Peter you guys are flaming hypocrites buddy.

The dirty little secret conservatives dont want us to notice is that they deficit spend as well-its just in service of different special interest. Tax cuts and wars cost money just like entitlement programs do and borrowing for one is inherently not better than borrowing for another. Reagan didnt “pay” for his tax cuts with spending cuts and neither did Bush. GOP never does and conservatives never demand it. Whole philosophy is empty. If Obama borrowed 1tril to fix estate tax Peter would dance.

Since tax cuts have been proven to bring in more $ for the government, why are democrats against them, while insisting on raising taxes to create higher deficits and bigger government? Why did the GOP spend so much money when in control of congress? The answers are that both parties are playing the people for fools, while doing the opposite to keep most of us mad, confused and in the dark, as they plan and plot against us. Votes are meaningless anymore.
