Obama's successor is going to inherit one heck of a mess.

She should blame Obama.

Yes. God help him if he golfs or takes a vacation day or puts up any Christmas trees or if his wife takes a ski trip.

God help him if his Vice President takes a trip to visit with our allies to discuss the Iran problem and he sleeps in anything more spendy than a Motel 6 or brings more than two staffers and Secret Service with him.

And if he dares to issue an Executive Order, WATCH OUT, HE'S A NAZI!!!!

This guy will have so many bars, rules of thumb, and standards to clear which have been set in the past few years, it will be inevitable his impeachment will have to be called for within his first 30 days. He'll be running into so many partisan obstacles that have been built, we will have to call him Lumpy.

We've been inheriting a mess in some degree since 1957... unfortunately, the degree of damage that Obama has done even above the damage that Bush II did is outrageous.. it is going to eventually take MUCH work to get government back in check, get spending down to income levels, and remove the mantra of entitled power that was never given in the constitution

Obama's successor is going to inherit one heck of a mess?

Somehow I think the liberal numbskulls will still try and find a way to blame it on Bush... Talk about delusional.

 

[Sallow]

Just saying.

She should blame Obama.

I am sure Hillary will be quite happy with the "mess".

Maybe this time we can actually make a dent in debt.

Please share with us how his successor is going to finance $20 trillion at real interest rates...

You're reeeal funny amelia It will be a hill 'o beans compared to what was left to Barack:

 

[jwoodie]

Since when did flapping gums count as proof of anything?

You should sight economic indicators like Housing sales UP.
or
Housing starts UP
or
the 15 million NEW vehicles sold last year
or
the Dow at a all time HIGH (S&P too)
or
the continual drop in unemployment
or
the 3 years of positive job creation.

somehow you have to SPIN these facts into your Doom and Gloom story.

Other wise, your just flapping gums.

which is good on a hot day but proves little.

What damage?

Obamacare.. increased spending. increase size and scope of the federal government in numerous aspects.. the list is huge..

There is more and more being done in government outside of the scope of the constitution each and every day... we are heading for debt that is more astronomical than the astronomical debt racked up by Bush when he did not cut spending along with the needed tax cuts...

Don't think it's going to be Hillary.

The nerve it takes conservatives to whine about inherited messes is simply amazing.

Obama is the one who inherited a mess, and he's the one who's done a pretty good job of fixing some of the mess that he did inherit. Bush was one of America's worst presidents ever. He gaffed, stooged and bumbled his way through an eight year nightmare of a Presidency that was massive domestic and foreign policy flop & failure.

Bush inherited peace & prosperity, and left with disastrous wars of choice, paid for with debt on your children and their children.

The problems of the USA are entirely the fault of the clodhopping buffoons of the GOP and the existence of Conservatism, whose cruel domestic policy and overly-aggressive foreign policy left America worse off under their ham-handed rule.

Conservatives, just to let you know, liberals do look down on you. Here's why: You are deeply stupid bumpkins with ill-spoken, oafish opinions based on ethnic and racial hatreds, debunked economic theories, and dangerous warmongering foreign policies.

Your future electoral prospects look pretty grim as younger people are very liberal and very democratic, and browner to boot. They don't like you being in the country either. You can attract their votes by modernizing, moderating and liberalizing your preferred policies. You're welcome for this advice.

They'll be saying in until the year 2024, I'm serious.

They should look on the bright side. They won't inherit -6% real GDP growth like Obama did.

^ that!

I wouldn't count them out electorally though, at least in the Congress, because there's a lot of people out there in this great nation who are stupid rw bumpkins.

"ObamaCare" is basically working as intended..and actually showing savings.

The size and scope of the federal government grew enormously under the Bush administration. Actual government payrolls are now shrinking on the Obama administration. So it can be said government is contracting..even more so with the wars being drawn to a close.

The Deficit has been going down as well..and the Obama administration actually made a payment against the debt.

If anything..the "damage" is being repaired.

-6% growth?! I'm guessing US public education mathematics, English or both.

No.. it is not all the way as intended..

There are no savings ANYWHERE documented.. not with the total cost to customers (of course except for the ones getting FREEBIES) and definitely not to the cost to taxpayers

Federal government payrolls are NOT shrinking under Obamalama.. and he has ZERO control over state and local hiring

The deficit is not going down as what was reported and the deficit is still MUCH higher than with any President before Obamalama.. It is funny how he can DOUBLE or TRIPLE the deficit, then take a slight amount off that (while still being higher than ever before) and get PRAISED... That is the leftist lemming for you

Damage is being done now, just as damage was done under Bush II.. just as damage was done under Clinton (though less on the fiscal side)... we have inherited damage in some way, shape, or form and to some degree ever since 1957.. the last time we had a true surplus
