Now Bubba Clinton.....

is taking center stage and ripping into the Republicans for his wife's e-mail problems...Of all people to attempt to perpetuate the 'right-wing conspiracy theories' attacking her...remember the right-wingers that were attacking him over his intern scandal...over his denials and then oops....the soiled blue dress....Once again it's how dare anyone question the Clintons and their actions...

Understand things of this nature from a political point of view....BUT when does any or all of this become Hillary's responsibility and/or accountability?...Further explain [if possible] how the republicans engineered this or are somehow the reason for this mess....If as reported...even the cowh said this was of her making but he allegedly threw in the qualifier...if she were to be HONEST....

Wild Bill really wants another go at the WH, even as a mere resident. He knows they will become super rich (instead of just "rich") if only Billary can sneak in the door. They are self-serving scum.....

But....she said that they've been "flat broke"... and she wants to be "the champion for the middle class"..... Can't believe you think they are 'self-serving' and caring only for the money....

Oh I don't know about that, liberals always find the money to pay off their entitlement minded voter base

   From Bubba Clinton to wasteful spending?....OK....

   So is the earlier post an indication that wasteful spending is acceptable depending on which political side is doing it?....If so there's the problem...waste is waste...over or bad spending is not responsible whether its military or entitlement programs...There's been no accountability/responsibility and certainly there's been nothing provided to show what the spending has accomplished....If there is honesty on most issues....both political parties are and continue to be the problem....to blame one and not the other only proves that point.....

Yeah, let's blame Food Stamps for our money problems.  Note how much of discretionary monies go to the Department of Agriculture (where food stamps monies are budgeted). EDIT: Not true. Food Stamp monies are designated as Mandatory Expenditures. See bottom graph.  



All this while 1.5 trillion dollars is spent by the military on just the F-35... A single Air Force F-35A costs a whopping $148 million. One Marine Corps F-35B costs an unbelievable $251 million. A lone Navy F-35C costs a mind-boggling $337 million.

And the F-35 is being cranked out by Lockheed Martin unfinished and not ready for prime time.

Some interesting numbers on this graph.

Consider the source (Fiscal Times)... but this is food for thought.

Quote :

And this estimate actually understates the extent to which Bush’s policies devastated the government’s revenue-raising capacity. In the postwar era, federal revenues have averaged 18.5 percent of GDP. They averaged 18.2 percent during Ronald Reagan’s 8 years and 19 percent under Bill Clinton’s 8 years, but 17.6 percent during George W. Bush’s 8 years and just 15.2 percent for Obama’s 4 years thus far.

At a minimum, this puts a lie to the ideas that we are overtaxed, that Obama has raised taxes, or that low taxes stimulate growth. Indeed, based on history, one can easily argue the opposite – that high taxes stimulate growth. The expansions of both the Reagan and Clinton administrations were preceded by big tax increases in 1982 and 1993, and revenues as a share of GDP were considerably higher during their administrations than under either Bush or Obama.
