Moron thinks it's all about race. So what? All the market losses on 9/11 were recovered by November. GDP for 2001, even with 9/11 and a recession, was still positive. There's no excuse for your shit deficits and squandering of a surplus other than your terrible Conservative policy.
Which was unfunded and unnecessary, and didn't even result in getting Osama bin Laden. But that's not the excuse for why you erased surpluses and produced record deficits.
Which was also unfunded and unnecessary. So you launched two wars, but you cut taxes????
Only because of the mortgage bubble you were also inflating at the time. What about the deficits for 2008 and 2009? What happened there? Oh right, the economy collapsed because the mortgage bubble, which had been the primary driver of your growth, popped.
Yes, because of how terrible your tax cuts were, how terrible the War on Terror was going, and how utterly corrupt the GOP and Conservatism is. See, we were too nice after 2006 and 2008...we let you posture and rebrand into the party of teabags. You won't be allowed to do that again.
Because your mortgage bubble popped. The thing your entire economy was based on because the tax cuts were a big flop.
Because of the economic collapse caused by your deregulation of housing. And because we had to bail out the banks thanks to your shitty deregulation and inability to make good deals. Obama reduced that deficit down to $500B by the time he left office. Now, it's back to $1T again because of your tax cut.

1. 2005-8 was the mortgage bubble. So if you're trying to take credit for the economic growth during that period, you must also accept responsibility for the bubble that caused that growth.
2. After 8 years of Bush Tax Cuts, the economy lost net 400,000 private sector jobs and we entered the worst Recession since the Great Depression.
3. Which means that if you're going to blame Democrats for the housing bubble, which I suspect you will, then you must give them the credit for the economy gains from that bubble. Which means it wasn't the tax cuts that caused that growth. Which means your entire argument unravels before our eyes.
You seem to be making it up as you go; ignorant of the events that happened during those years. Maybe you're just too young to remember, or maybe you spent those years in a meth-induced haze. I don't know and I don't care. What I care about is how you misrepresent and get wrong most everything you're saying.
Presidents can't spend dumbfuck. Clinton came into office saying "it's the economy stupid". Then he agreed with the Democratic controlled Congress to raise taxes.
The deficit at the time was $255 billion. The Democrats lost the Congress in 1995 for the first time in almost 40 years to Republicans due to the tax increases.
Deficits started a steep downward spiral after that. The republicans controlled the agenda and BillyBob, seeing the writing on the wall worked WITH the opposition and signed their agenda to control spending into law. It was called the Contract with America.
It was the first time in many decades the spending was lower than revenues. It had NOTHING to do with the tax increase and everything to do with the republican agenda. Taxes were cut in 1997 creating a massive boom that resulted on a large increase in revenue.
I do wish you had a brain. But then, if you had a brain, you wouldn't be the lying leftist moron we know you now to be.
According to the CBO, it did.
Yes you were; and you are nothing more than a whiny pimple faced punk with a massive chip on his shoulder with nothing inside that neanderthal skull.
No I wasn't, which is why you can't even quote my posts to support your case.
Like most of what you do, and how I imagine you live your life, it's impotent.
Moron keeps erupting with the same stupid claim thinking it's a fact. The Democrats took over the purse strings in 2007 you willful idiot. This is why I hate arguing with low information morns who can only parrot the moronic talking points they've been fed. You spend 2/3rdds of your time trying to educate them.
Yes. Bush took a series of steps in 2002-4 to create and inflate a subprime mortgage bubble in order to make the economy look like it was growing as a result of his tax cuts, when it was really as a result of debt.
From Bush's Working Group, 2008:
“The Presidents Working Group’s March policy statement acknowledged that turmoil in financial markets clearly was triggered by a dramatic weakening of underwriting standards for U.S. subprime mortgages, beginning in late 2004 and extending into 2007.”
Conservatives were in full control of all three branches of government in 2004 through January 2007. Bush specifically dramatically weakened underwriting standards for subprime loans by having his regulators no enforce lending standards.
And the Federal Reserve said:
"Since 1995 there has been essentially no change in the basic CRA rules or enforcement process that can be reasonably linked to the subprime lending activity. This fact weakens the link between the CRA and the current crisis since the crisis is rooted in poor performance of mortgage loans made between 2004 and 2007. "
Yes you did, and no it didn't.
You said revenue "always increases" following a tax cut; revenue for 2001-4 was below revenue for 2000. So your statement is false.
Numbers don't lie, and the revenue numbers for 2001-4 were below revenue numbers for 2000.
"Real Data" that you haven't linked to. Meanwhile, I've posted the link to the tax policy center's historical federal outlays and receipts almost every post, including this one.
The numbers are there and they don't support you.
Wrong; it's because Democrats never found a better reason to spend 535 billion more than they were talking in. The Democratic Party of the Jackass loves to spend money.
Wrong; in truth, it was on an uptick. It increased to $584.7 plus from $438.5.
Again, the year hasn't ended and that had record levels of revenue come in the last quarter. Smart people, that would exclude you, would wait until the fiscal year ends to starty ranting like linatics.
But again, the last thing a lying hypocrite like you should do is whine about deficits after supporting a President that spent more than the previous three presidents, and you didn't say a word...but cheered the spending. You morons argued that it was GOOD spending.
Eight years of malaise and you whiny pathetic lying hypocrites think you can lecture ANYONE else on economics and morality?
