Your chart shows that the only year in the 90's spending went down was 1993.
Can you provide any EVIDENCE to support the assertion that Newt cut spending?So then it is settled.
NEWT cut spending.
Cutting spending WORKED for the American people.
The Democrats HATE spending cuts.
The Democrats lie when they attempt to spin the "Clinton economy," which had NOTHING to do with what Bill and Hillary were trying to do = SPEND.
Newt is just more of the same old shit; america, always stuck in looking backward.
Do you have any idea how the budget process works?Can anyone find ONE SINGLE DEMOCRAT who supported Newt's budgets in real time, not two decades later after they worked for the American people???
Your chart shows that the only year in the 90's spending went down was 1993.
Many spending programs like SS and Medicare/caid have COLA (cost of living adjustments) built in, so spending goes up automatically. Bill Clinton presided over six straight years of no spending increases when COLA is factored in. Two of those years were the failed attempt by Hillary to socialize health care. The next four were NEWT.
By the way, are you in favor of spending cuts now?
LOL!!
Didn't think so...
Uh...dude?Why did the Clintons shut the government down?
A: they wanted MORE SPENDING
Guess when NEWT was Speaker...

pretty much EVERY credible economic authority argues that we SHOULD increase federal spending...
Newt is just more of the same old shit; america, always stuck in looking backward.
Hence the reason Hillary is leading
For FY 1997 Clinton requested 1.64 trillion......Congress passed 1.86....?????
For FY 1998 Clinton requested 1.69, Congress passed 1.65.

The Democrats tried that noise in the 1990s, trotting out left wing economist after economist. They were all wrong, but that doesn't stop the Dems from trying again.
Here's some history for the liberal truth-challenged Hillary supporters here...
The Case for Newt Gingrich | The American Spectator
"when the Gingrich majority took power in 1995, it was greeted by the 1996 Clinton budget still projecting $200 billion annual budget deficits as far as the eye could see, totaling $2.7 trillion over 10 years, confirmed by CBO. The House passed a budget bill providing for $1 trillion in spending cuts over the next 10 years, and that was almost 20 years ago when $1 trillion was still real money.
In the government shutdown budget battles with Clinton, Gingrich won the substance, as Gingrich demonstrated the only way to balance the budget, with Reagan’s supply-side economics. That involved both cutting taxes, to get the economy booming, and cutting spending, resulting in the longest period of federal surpluses since the 1920s."
TRUTH TRUTH TRUTH TRUTH
NEWT NEWT NEWT NEWT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't..... You can see for yourself.....would you like me to tell you where to look?For FY 1997 Clinton requested 1.64 trillion......Congress passed 1.86....?????
For FY 1998 Clinton requested 1.69, Congress passed 1.65.
Um, I think you have an 8 where a 5 or so is what happened... because the Dems were bitching every year for MORE SPENDING.
Government spending makes everyone not stealing taxdollars poorer. CUT THAT SPENDING, watch the Dems scream and whine and predict gloom and doom, and remember, they said those same things in the 1990s, and now try to take credit for exactly what they were whining about and opposing.
Can anyone find ONE SINGLE DEMOCRAT who supported Newt's budgets in real time, not two decades later after they worked for the American people???
I don't..... You can see for yourself.....would you like me to tell you where to look?
There were precisely ZERO Dem votes for the budget in 1995, 1996, and possibly 1997 too.
Heck, in 1995, the Clintons shut the government down over spending - the Dems wanted more - duh.
To which chart are you referring?I don't..... You can see for yourself.....would you like me to tell you where to look?
So spending spiked up and then went down - LOL!!
That's not what the chart shows. The chart shows FLAT spending for the first six years of Clinton. Every year of Gingrich as Speaker, the Dems were bitching and whining for MORE SPENDING. All of their gloom and doom BS is now outed as BS, and all their "prestigious economists" were 100% wrong too.
