Well if you can agree that the defense spending and Obama's tax cuts - the two main drivers of Obama's debt - were bad policies, tthen maybe we can be on the same page. Are tax cuts an example of communism? Obviously not,cutting taxes and over spending is Bush's 10 trillion contribution to the debt.Also for the retarded let me clear this fallacy up. The cuts didn't cause the debt. THE SPENDING DIDOh you mean the cuts that have greatly contributed to our national debt and did very little to create jobs?Bush's tax cuts.What have republicans ever done for this country that has benefited it as a whole? Policies that the poor and middle class have benefited from. BE SPECIFIC. Here are the rules for your post:
1) You must provide facts and statistics from an unbiased source. That means no Fox News, Forbes, National Review, Blaze, etc.
2) Leave Obama or any liberals out of this discussion unless you can give specific examples of democrats obstructing republican policies that you can prove would have helped the nation as a whole.
Anything else?
