Democrats SUCK!!

[Henry Hawk]

President George W. Bush held a higher approval rating in October of his fifth year in office than  President Obama.
Obama's approval rating stands at 37 percent with a  53 percent disapproval rating, according to an Associated Press/GfK poll  released Wednesday October 9.

At the same point in the first year of his second term, Bush held a higher  approval rating even as he battled criticisms of his handling of weeks-old  Hurricane Katrina.

WTF?

It's tripe from the inbox again.

Yep, and it seems to be just random words strung together without any thought!

Nope, not from the inbox and the caption in the picture is very true.  They are paying for the DNR to guard places normally open with no one there, paying for them to put up the fences, and paying to transport the gates from place to place.  Isn't that technically allocating funds which can't be done during a shut down?  Just a side thought. Also money was allocated to pay for that little illegal alien rights group get together in the national mall Pelosi was so proud of the other day.

In 2009, America's debt was just over $10 trillion and Barack Obama was taking his first oath of office....five years and six shattered debt-ceilings later, America's debt is set to hit $17 trillion, with no end in sight.

It's unpatriotic!

Thank Bush's tax cuts, unnecessary wars and the neocons crashing the economy.

and yet Obama PROMISED to cut the deficit in HALF by 2012?  Did he lie or was he not smart enough to know better?

You go right ahead and keep believing that garbage if you want but it is time this administration put on their big boy pants and quit playing the blame game.

Adjusted for inflation, the deficit for the period covered by the last Bush era budget was nearly $933 million.  The deficit for the period ended September 2013 was just under $214 million.  Not sure where you went to school but by my math, that means that the deficit has been cut by more than 3/4.

Learn math.

Learn math.

Reid, Pelosi, and Obama...this administration....more than one...their.  At least they're the ones who do the largest percentage of it for the liberals to mimic.

where did you get your numbers...

according to fact check:

Obama's response leaves the false impression that President George W. Bush and the 2008 recession are responsible for a whopping 90 percent of the deficits in the last four years.

It's true that Obama "inherited the biggest deficit in our history," as he said on CBS. By the time Obama took office in January 2009, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office had already estimated that increased spending and decreased revenues would result in a $1.2 trillion deficit for fiscal year 2009, which began Oct. 1, 2008. In a detailed analysis of fiscal year 2009, we found that Obama was responsible for adding at most $203 billion to the deficit, which in the end topped $1.4 trillion that year.

But that was just the first of four years of trillion-plus deficits. The last three budgets fall squarely under Obama. And, during that time, the federal government ran up deficits of $1.3 trillion in 2010, $1.3 trillion in 2011, and about $1.2 trillion in the fiscal year that ends Sept. 30 — for a total of nearly $5.2 trillion in deficit spending.

Now, affixing responsibility (i.e., blame) for mega-deficits and the ballooning federal debt is filled with ideological landmines. Obama doesn't take responsibility for war spending, for example, even though he continued the spending and, in fact, increased U.S. troop levels in Afghanistan. He also doesn't want to take the blame for the expense of creating the Medicare prescription drug program — although his federal health care law increased funding for it. (The law will gradually close the notorious doughnut hole that caused some seniors to pay nearly $2,000 in prescription drug costs because of a gap in coverage.)

Regardless of how you assess blame, this much we can say with certainty: Obama's policies are responsible for more than 10 percent of the deficits accumulated over the last four years.
