I hardly think that the deficit is due to the President's ability to do arithmetic.
Leave it to Xo, to again refute a point never made.....the notion that the deficit is due to "the President's ability to do arithmetic". It's due to
his policies, put in place, when he had carte blanche control of all of Government, including a Fillibuster proof senate majority, in his 1st 2 years. Policies that have specifically strangled any attempts for either the private sector to get any employment momentum, and debt that is exponentally higher than when he claimed how unpatriotic it was for Bush to have had
Any politician stating arithmetical truths is unlikely to win favor with some, perhaps more, voters.
We'll see come Nov, won't we, as more and more "truths" come out, regarding the actual state of the economy, & the country's deathspiral of debt. Hard core numbners, that regardless of how minimal the Main Scream Media, tries to make of it, people's decreased takehome pay, and those still unemployed at over 8% for the gazillionth month in a row now, will take note......and VOTE
But take heart Xo.....I read recently a report that if the election were held for those either non-voting, or unable to vote, Obama would win in a landslide
