It's not a stretch at all. it was the sharpest economic downturn since the Great Depression.

Welfare is now the biggest single chunk of the federal budget, having risen 32 percent in just four years.
Federal welfare spending has grown by 32 percent over the past four years, fattened by President Obama’s stimulus spending and swelled by a growing number of Americans whose recession-depleted incomes now qualify them for public assistance, according to numbers released Thursday. Federal spending on more than 80 low-income assistance programs reached $746 billion in 2011, and state spending on those programs brought the total to $1.03 trillion, according to figures from the Congressional Research Service and the Senate Budget Committee. That makes welfare the single biggest chunk of federal spending — topping Social Security and basic defense spending.

I suggest that we obey your wishes and eliminate all social spending tomorrow. Just shut off the spigot.

On one condition. People like you have to go to the center of the nearest metro area and have a victory rally. And you must all wear t-shirts proclaiming and boasting of your victory.

My guess is that the US population will be reduced by 20% in one hour, and you'll be part of that reduction.

i agree, considering obamas actually done a decent job righting the ship. he doesnt need the "excuse" anymore.

but really, its mainly conservatives bringing it up now, or trying to set the trap.

Just playing. nottie has nothing. never has. I've been thru this with him 50 different times back on the range. No matter how i respond nottie will just call it dumb or ask some non-related question trying to pin everything wrong on Bush. Its his mo. What should i do call him a worse name?

Want to see nottie shut up ?

nottie, current US debt is $16 trillion. You have said it before and i understand you don't think the debt at its current level is a problem.
At what point DOES it become a problem? $25, 50, 100 trillion?

What is your number?

Poof...

Nottie disappears... Everytime...
