The day the democrats took over was not January 22nd 2009, it was actually January 3rd 2007 the day the Democrats took over the House of Representatives and the Senate, at the very start of the 110th Congress. The Democrat Party controlled a majority in both chambers for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress in 1995.
For those who are listening to the liberals propagating the fallacy that everything is “Bush’s Fault”, think about this January 3rd, 2007 was the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress.
At that time:
The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77
The GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5%
The Unemployment rate was 4.6%
George Bush’s Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 STRAIGHT MONTHS of JOB GROWTH
Remember the day… January 3rd, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took over the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over the Senate Banking Committee.
The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in what part of the economy? BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES!
Unemployment… to this CRISIS by (among MANY other things) dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac FIASCOES!
Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie – starting in 2001 because it was financially risky for the US economy.
And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie Mac? OBAMA
And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie? OBAMA and the Democrat Congress.
So when someone tries to blame Bush. REMEMBER JANUARY 3rd, 2007…. THE DAY THE DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!”
Budgets do not come from the White House. They come from Congress and the party that controlled Congress since January 2007 is the Democrat Party.
Furthermore, the Democrats controlled the budget process for 2008 & 2009 as well as 2010 & 2011.
In that first year, they had to contend with George Bush, which caused them to compromise on spending, when Bush somewhat belatedly got tough on spending increases.
For 2009 though, Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid bypassed George Bush entirely, passing continuing resolutions to keep government running until Barack Obama could take office. At that time, they passed a massive omnibus spending bill to complete the 2009 budgets.
And where was Barack Obama during this time? He was a member of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he signed the omnibus bill as President to complete 2009.
If the Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the 2007 deficit, the last of the Republican budgets. That deficit was the lowest in five years, and the fourth straight decline in deficit spending. After that, Democrats in Congress took control of spending, and that includes Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets. If Obama inherited anything, he inherited it from himself.
In a nutshell, what Obama is saying is I inherited a deficit that I voted for and then I voted to expand that deficit four-fold since January 20th.
There is no way this will be widely publicized.
YOu aren’t a conservative…you’re a hater and a democrat…if you’re a conservative my orange tabby is Jesus Christ himself…and we know THAT isn’t true. Why don’t you follow the addage…stay silent let them think you a fool; open your mouth, remove all doubt? THAT way, people who do have more than a nutshell won’t feel compelled to put you back in your place.

well unfortunately for us many so-called Conservatives like that Libertarian azzhole Glenn Beck LIED about George W. Bush for so many years that their lies have literally become “true”. And just because Beck is right about OBAMA doesn’t make Beck’s outright lies about Bush true.
There are 100′s of so-called conservatives that LIE about Bush and his father. Ann Coulter, Pat Buchannon, Piggy Noonan, Bill O’Rielly, the list goes on and on forever…. they all lie thru their teeth about Bush and his father on several points.
Ron Paul and the Libertarians are the biggest offenders in this regard. They are without a doubt the biggest enemies that the Republican Party has faced. And now that the (libertarian Ron Paul loving) Tea Party is claiming responsibility for any Republican gains (when in fact they have hurt us more than helped) we have our biggest enemies inside our ship.
FACT: Most of the TEA PARTY people still blame GW Bush for everything because of Libertarian Propaganda.
We might win the election in 2012 but we will still have RATS (libertarians) inside our walls. The Libertarians will RUIN any gains we make with Mitt Romney. Thats because they will partner with MSNBC, CNN, ABC, NBC and CBS again to promote and to canonize LIES and Liberal Propaganda into NEW TRUTHS.
FACT: Romney was never liked and is still only barely accepted by the Tea People. He will be crucified by the Media if he wins and the Libertarians will be right their with the Liberals, again.
Ayn Randian Libertarianism is at heart nothing more that LeVay Satanism with the ceremony removed. Philosophically that is. Philosophically libertarianism is Satanic. Any partnership made with Satan through Ayn Rand or through Ron Paul will end up hurting us more than helping.
Is it any wonder why the Republicans fail to succeed in their LONG term goals?
