Yeah, um I dont think you can blame that on Obama.

lololololol These cards made my day ;D

not job as in the bible character >:( job as in your job is a teacher.
But none of this is obama's fault. O_o; seriously he JUST begun his term! Honestly, he couldn't of had much if any effect on the economy yet, bush however.... and his nice lil... 'restoration effort' might be to blame though.

My stimulus money...
It's...
ALIIIVEEE!!!!!

I really don't care anymore... but I have to say this statistic. Obama's stimulus package is spending more money (that we don't have) than every other president has every spent on anything COMBINED. So I highly doubt that Bush's "restoration effort" will impact us as much as Obama's stimulus package. :)

We'll see. I've stopped following politics, Usually I can't effect it, so it is just more worry.

YMT wins the thread.

- Total cost of Bush 43's 2001 Tax Cut as of October 2005: $860 billion [reference (http://www.epi.org/economic_snapshots/entry/webfeatures_snapshots_20051026/)]
- Total cost of War in Iraq as of February 2009: $860 billion.[reference (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/01/weekinreview/01glanz.html)]
- Cost of "Obama's stimulus package:" $787 billion [reference (http://topics.nytimes.com/topics/reference/timestopics/subjects/u/united_states_economy/economic_stimulus/index.html)]
Your statistic would be even more impressive if it were true.

I agree with Schaef on both parts lol.
No need to make it a political debate because that is not what these boards are about. besides, as a Social Studies teacher I have heard all the arguments and frankly i am a bit bored with it.

"Total cost of Bush 43's 2001 Tax Cut as of October 2005: $860 billion"
If you see a tax cut as a "cost," then you and I see America VERY differently. America is its people, not its government.
But maybe that's just politics, which will stay out of this thread.

Please include each on of Obama's stimulus plans including the 1 trillion dollars that he's using for the toxic assets. The small business bail out, the housing bailout, and his soon to be announced budget that he has already stated would be in the trillions. How does that compare with the Bush stats you listed? Additionally, add the cost of lives that Obama has authorized to kill via federally funded abortion.

umm, yeah, this thread is gonna get locked pretty soon. this is why I hate arguing politics with people. they often start vomiting rhetoric without substance

The trillion dollars was approved by Bush Jr. under his last term. The buying of toxic assets was how they sold us the bill of goods, but then the Treasury Secretary ( which is just about as powerful as the Prez in certain areas, now due to this arrangement) pulled a bait and switch and decided to give the $$ directly to banks..hoping they would lend it to people...they did not so the bush legacy on this issue is basically giving banks money and having them stuff it under a mattress instead of re-investing it in the private sector
The Toxic debt idea has been revitalized by obama just today, but the number is not 1 trillion..it is 100 Billion. ..Strike 1
The small business bail out, the housing bailout,
All begun under Bush ..strike 2
and his soon to be announced budget that he has already stated would be in the trillions.
Do you know what bushes budgets were? since 2002 they have all been over 2 trillion dollars. budgets arent the problem. having the money to spend for your wants is the problem. If we had a 5 trillion budget but had 6 trillion in income is that bad? If you wanna complain, talk budget deficits, but then again the right hasn't had much luck selling the public on fiscal conservatism lately ...due to bush Jr. ....strike 3
How does that compare with the Bush stats you listed?
pretty good so far ( see above)
Additionally, add the cost of lives that Obama has authorized to kill via federally funded abortion.
Way foul ball here bro. Obama may support abortion, but he did not authorize it. It has judicial and congressional support. The president does not make the laws, they only enforce them as they see it within their consititutional ability to do so. so dont try to hang millions of abortions on Obamas back. This type of rhetoric does nothing to enhance the conversation and only enflames the problem, not to mention it is wrong and irresponsible. Abortion is not one man's problem it is the problem of a nation. ..sorry but the ump says ...your out!
Seriously people, this is not the place to talk politics so please keep it to a good natured comments on the cards that were posted. If you cant say nothing nice, dont say nothing at all.

Fair enough. I assumed tax cuts were being counted as a cost, otherwise lightningninja's complaint is even sillier than listed above. If tax cuts aren't a "cost" then you should remove them from calculating the cost of the stimulus package. In that case you would get a one time stimulus package cost that is comparable to what we spend year in and year out on the military.
For the heck of it (sticking with the Republicans=good and Democrats=evil theme rather than confusing the issue)...
