Damn it all to hell... Everytime a Democrat gets in the Oval Office they start clawing back the deficits

that the Republicans blow up on us every time they get in office. And yet they (the republicans) succeed painting themselves as fiscally sound individuals who want to balance the budget.

They are killing our economy.. They do it every time

And let me add this.. killing our social programs adds to the deficits.. it does not reduce them..

the majority in congress, then nothing will. Cutting so much from medicaid, medicare, while increasing the national debt by over 2 trillion dollars is despicable. Hmm, guess who is getting huge tax reductions? I am so sick of this administration and the whole republican party!
