Just gotta love the propaganda the right wing sends out to its drones.
Lets start with some facts. Ronald Reagan, for the first time in history, left a 3.7 trillion dollar debt when he left office. At that time, it was more than all the presidents before him going back to george washington, then BUSH 1 ran that up to 5.5 trillion and that broke Reagans record. Clinton took it to zero and BUSH 2 left 10.7 trillion in debt on the desk of OBAMA the day he took office EXCEEDING all presidents before him including his own father.
Obama has spent 6.5 trillion but most of that came in the form of the BUSH TAX EXTENSION that costs 3.5 trillion. Maybe you think tax cuts are free? If you subtract the bush tax cut extention alone, the money Obama spent would have been cut in half. Then you subtract the Iraq war and the afghanistan war and you can subtract another 2 trillion dollars.
You seem to want to forget how we got into this mess and who is cleaning it up.
The only thing that "sez it all" is the lack of knowledge by the GOP failthful.
Peace.

Re: Obamabastic !!
Denial by the GOP doesnt absolve them from responsibility for the decline of the USA. Its a nice way of trying to avoid responsibility, but its wrong.
As for gas prices, how about I tell you that the price of gas is simply capitalism and supply and demand. It worked for you during bush, so Im guessing it will work again eh?

Re: Obamabastic !!
Your "but" makes denial #1 in your book!
You deny that O has any responsibility in all that spending. Tell it to the prisoners and dead people and illegals who get government checks!!

Re: Obamanation here today
"“When I see the casualness in which those folks talk about war, I am reminded of the costs of war.”
from O's speech this morning.........why doesn't he ever consider costs in the programs he tries to pass off?? Solar and other losing propositions?
He also said, "Every American should want Immigration reform." I agree. What has he done but tell the border agents....don't detain illegals, let 'em go.

Barack Obama chides Republican rivals for pounding drums of war with Iran
WASHINGTON - U.S. President Barack Obama made clear Tuesday he has no intention of rushing into conflict with Iran, chastising his foes in the Republican party for beating the drums of war as America already pays a heavy human and economic price for its current military missions.
"Those folks don't have a lot of responsibilities," Obama told a rare news conference at the White House, his first since October.
"They are not commander-in-chief. And when I see the casualness with which some of these folks talk about war, I'm reminded of the costs involved in war ... in terms of sending our young men and women into battle, and the impact that has on their lives, the impact it has on our national security, the impact it has on our economy."

Re: Obamanation here today
Yet another misleading headline. Data is classified depending upon the sensitivity of the information--not all classified data is considered to be Top Secret.
Information Security Glossary - Data Classification
The US would never knowingly voluntarily divulge Top Secret information, regardless of the situation; however, they may release classified information of lesser importance.

Re: Obamanation here today
Even if it was borderline secret, why would you even consider walking beyond the paper shredder with it???? Is he meeting with Putin to find out how to rig an election?

Via Breitbart:
Barack Obama made his own students at the University of Chicago Law School read some of Derrick Bell’s most radical and racially inflammatory writings.
In 1994, Barack Obama taught a course at the University of Chicago Law School entitled, “Current Issues in Racism and the Law.” The reading list and syllabus for that class were made available by the New York Times in 2008, though there seems to have been little analysis of its content by Jodi Kantor, the Times’s Obama correspondent.
Obama routinely assigned works by Bell as required reading, including Bell’s racialist interpretations of seminal civil rights laws and cases. No other scholar’s work appears as often in the syllabus as Bell’s does.
Obama relied particularly heavily upon Bell’s major work, Race, Racism, and American Law (1973). Now in its sixth edition, the book lays out Bell’s Critical Race Theory, which is based on the Alinskyite presumption that all of law is a construct–not of justice, but of power exercised by whites against blacks. [...
Perhaps most interesting was Obama’s decision to include and to require the introduction to Bell’s controversial 1992 book, Faces at the Bottom of the Well: The Permanence of Racism, which relied on manufactured stories (or, as Bell called them, “allegories” or “fables”) meant to portray the allegedly structural racism of American society.
