It Aint Me Babe

With apologies to Bob Dylan, President Obama claims that current the $1.3 Trillion deficit had nothing to do with him. “We inherited a $1.3 trillion deficit… that wasn’t me.” Oh really? I am so sick of hearing this type of argument and I’m sick of the stupid media and the stupid  people in this country believing it. As outlined in the US Constitution, the Congress controls the purse strings in this country and not the President. Congress passes the budget and the President signs it. President Bush may have signed the last budget but it was the Democratic controlled Congress that passed it. In fact the Democrats wanted to spend more in the emergency stimulus package than Bush was willing to spend. And current President, Obama was right there with them. If you look at the problems that we face in this country right now, you can trace many of the roots back to Congress. Yet all we hear from these “great” leaders is , “blame Bush”. It’s time for American people to wake up and look at the real problem in this country, Congress. We need to turn all of these people out because they are killing us. When the elections come up, vote them all out and let’s start over. And I’m not talking about Democrats or Republicans, I’m talking about all of them.
