President Obama has shattered the budget record for first-year presidents -- spending nearly double what his predecessor did when he came into office and far exceeding the first-year tabs for any other U.S. president in history.
In fiscal 2009 the federal government spent $3.52 trillion -- $2.8 trillion in 2000 dollars, which sets a benchmark for comparison. That fiscal year covered the last three-and-a-half months of George W. Bush's term and the first eight-and-a-half months of Obama's.
Whattheheck
You all just don't understand. It's all Bush's fault. He left us so far in debt that the only way out of debt was to go even further into debt. He's just trying to save the country.
CONSERVATIVE=LEMMING
This money had to be spent in order to clean up Bush's mess. Ignoring everything from infrastructure to the banking industry has consequences. It doesn't run on auto pilot. Gee, you think that the last eight years of letting things go to sh__t could have something to do with the amount of money we have been forced to spend now? You can't break the laws of economics and not expect the bill payer to come knocking some time. Let's pass PHRMA that doesn't pay for itself, then lets fight 2 wars, borrowing 11 billion a month and not paying for it, and let's reduce taxes on the people that control jobs but don't give pay raises and export jobs for 15 years. Great decision making, conservatives. This is still all your fault.

Hey Marx, you are still an ignorant fool. You morons will never see past your blindness. That is what makes you weak and stupid. I don't have to go any firther than that. You are all condemned to your own pathetic ignorance. This is the reason why you will never advance your agenda. you are condemned to your own illiteracy.
Whattheheck
I have a better question.
If the "Stimulus" bill was supposed to be creating jobs, why is the whole thing loaded in the back end, so that the money is not spent until 2011 and 2012?
-
I'll give you a hint - it's NOT about creating jobs, timing something like this to coincide with the upcoming election cycle.
Whattheheck
$3.52 TRILLION, and it's not really been a year yet since he took office. So far he's pissed it away on a lot of pork ("stimulus") and gifts ("bailouts" for GM/Chrysler, with the UAW being the major benefactor) to his supporters.
Now, he's worried that supporting the military and giving them the troop increase that they asked for might cost 'too much' (~$40 Billion, compared to the Trillions he's already thrown away)? He's worried that we can't afford this much money right now, even as his tools in Congress are working on destroying another Trillion + in the name of "Health Care Reform" (Brought to you by some of the biggest lobbyists out there).

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 62% believe tax cuts are a better way to create jobs and fight unemployment. Only 21% believe that additional stimulus spending is a more effective tool. Earlier this year, as the first stimulus package was being debated in Congress, 62% of voters wanted the plan to have more tax cuts and less spending

Just look at what the price of gold has done since Mr. Obama's inauguration. In January, around the time of Mr. Obama's inauguration, gold was approximately $850/oz.. Lately it has set all-time record highs reaching almost $1,200/oz.. It doesn't take a genius to figure it out - the democratic controlled House, Senate, and white house are spending TRILLIONS of dollars we don't have. They are printing money like crazy. The dollar is tanking. Wake up, America; if our currency is destroyed, our sovereignty could be next.
here it comes
As long as they lay everything on Bush they can keep spending money 'cause liberals really hate Bush but conservatives show they only somewhat dislike BHO, therefore the printed and borrowed money flows.

This communist is the most vile creature to ever soil the linen in the White House.
GIRTHOLICIOUS
It is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is not trying to lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and strength. Quite the opposite, in fact.
The methodology is known as the Cloward-Piven Strategy;
The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The "Cloward-Piven Strategy" seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.
The result, they predicted, would be "a profound financial and political crisis" that would unleash "powerful forces ... for major economic reform at the national level."
They implemented the strategy by creating a succession of radical organizations, most notable among them the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), with the help of veteran organizer Wade Rathke. Their crowning achievement was the "Motor Voter" act, signed into law by Bill Clinton in 1993 with Cloward and Piven standing behind him.
As we now know, ACORN was one of the chief drivers of high-risk mortgage lending that eventually led to the financial crisis. But the Motor Voter law was another component of the strategy. It created vast vulnerabilities in our electoral system, which ACORN then exploited.
ACORN's vote registration scandals throughout the U.S. are predictable fallout.
The Motor Voter law has also been used to open another vulnerability in the system: the registration of vast numbers of illegal aliens, who then reliably vote Democrat. Herein lies the real reason Democrats are so anxious for open borders, security be damned.
It should be clear to anyone with a mind and two eyes that this president and this Congress do not have our interests at heart. They are implementing this strategy on an unprecedented scale by flooding America with a tidal wave of poisonous initiatives, orders, regulations, and laws. As Rahm Emmanuel said, "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste."
The real goal of "health care" legislation, the real goal of "cap-and-trade," and the real goal of the "stimulus" is to rip the guts out of our private economy and transfer wide swaths of it over to the government to control. Do not be deluded by the propaganda. These initiatives are vehicles for change. They are not goals in and of themselves except in their ability to deliver power. They and will make matters much worse, for that is their design.
This time, in addition to overwhelming the government with demands for services, Obama and the Democrats are overwhelming political opposition to their plans with a flood of apocalyptic legislation. Their ultimate goal is to leave us so discouraged, demoralized, and exhausted that we throw our hands up in defeat. As Barney Frank said, "the middle class will be too distracted to fight."
It is time we fully internalized and digested this fact, with all its ugly ramifications. These people have violated countless laws and could be prosecuted, had we the political power. Not only are their policies unconstitutional, but deliberately so -- the goal being to make the Constitution irrelevant. Their spending is off the charts and will drive us into hyperinflation, but it could be rescinded, had we the political power. These policies are toxic, but they could be stopped and reversed, had we the political power. Their ideologies are poisonous, but they could be exposed for what they are, with long jail sentences as an object lesson, had we the political power.
Every single citizen who cares about this country should be spending every minute of his or her spare time lobbying, organizing, writing, and planning. Fight every initiative they launch. It is all destructive. If we are to root out this evil, it is critical that in 2010 we elect competent, principled leaders willing to defend our Constitution and our country. Otherwise, the malevolent cabal that occupies the government today will become too entrenched.
After that, all bets are off.

Obama and ACORN what to overwhelm our system so that we have a redistribution of wealth in this country. Amazing that all the elitist that want this will come thru untouched but the middle class will be GONE-permanently. Then Obama will have his global economy and transnational borders. George Soros will be the happiest man in the world (can't say america because she will no longer exist), to bad we can't deport Soros. America will no longer exist and neither will the system that educated Obama, made Obama and Soros very rich men and has even made idiots like Michael Moore very rich. Why would they want to do away with this system????? Could it be that these megalomaniacs don't believe others deserve the same opportunities that america has afforded them????? Obama and Soros are national disgraces.

By the way, the Bills that are put together by Congress and voted on and passed are then sent to the Senate where they would either modify it or vote on it the way it was sent to them by Congress. Being that both of these branches are ruled by Demorats, a lot of the Clueless One in the White House request are passed. This only until next year when we Americans will do our thing in kicking these cronies from office..2010 cannot come any sooner.
EaglesNest
US Male....with all due respect, I believe you are a little bit confused but not as much as K. Marx, he is simply out of the ballpark with his analogy of the Clueless One in the White House spending spree. Congress, which is responsible in putting together bills which then become laws as they vote on the bills they formulate. Being that Congress is control by the Demorats as well as the Senate, one can say that they are in cohort with whatever the Clueless One in the White House demands. Perfect example of this is his asinine Chronic Health Plan. This plan is so laden with new taxes (last count was at 183) that it will take this nation to see a little light at the end of the tunnel they say by 2019, if at all. K. Marx, (which by the way, the name befits him) stated (para-phrasing) that we are in need of spending money in order to take care of the mess created by the previous administration. To a point, I agree somewhat with that. However, the spending must be done responsibly and with a constructive plan. You just can't be bailing out every institution that falls from grace. You must allow them to go through the bankruptcy system of re-organizing which has proven to be an effective tool in the past. A big mistake in the takeover of the Auto industry. A big mistake in the takeover of the Banking institutions. A big mistake to attempt to run the nations Health Plan when the Clueless One in the White House cannot even get the economy going and only gotten worst.

I am on a "fixed income" that is comfortable, but not excessive. Yet, I do not wish to have the taxes on the wealthy to be raised any higher than they already are!!! I see no logic in PUNISHING people for success, especially since so few people seem to have any initiative other than existing off government give- aways as it is! And if you even DARE to think only the rich are going to pay higher taxes, you are in for one very rude awakening!

BS, he wasted billions on science projects with the stimulus. Bush inherited the beginnings of a recession from Clinton -- ie trucking companies were laying off people due to down turn in spending. Clinton road the highs of the Reagan prosperity he had to clean up from Carter. Bush cut taxes, economy came back even though we had a devastating terrorist attack, two wars. He did spend too much money, but Obama is bound and determined to spend us into oblivion, crush the capitalist economy and remake it in his socialist/communist view. I also blame many of the economic problems on Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Jesse Jackson who forced lenders into giving loans to people who had no intentions of paying it back. And for two years Democratic Congress pretty much ruled before Obama took office. Stop blaming Bush, that is old news.
CONSERVATIVE=LEMMING
Great revisionist history. Reagan was incompetent. He was not a model of fiscal conservatism, and increased deficits exponentially. Trickle down economics are the root cause of the trouble we are in today. Reagan was a criminal.
