Because targeting the lowest common denominator is not the exclusive realm of the right.

How is that the "lowest common denominator"?

Last I checked, none of these people had multiple stints in jail.  But I guess that only matters if they're democrats, right?

"Lowest IQ"

"Lowest IQ"

I agree.  That does tend to be the exclusive realm of the right.

It sure does, and this guy knows something about IQ.

Uh-oh...just saw where Gaspar and Conan get their lies about the deficit doubling in the last 3 years...what Romney just said.

You don't listen well, do you?  I never said it doubled.  I said Obama promised he would cut the deficit in half.  He didn't.  Either he failed or he lied.

Depends on which estimates and guesstimates one wants to believe.  One of which puts it at 30% lower.  Other projections indicate that it is about 45%.  Either one is a dramatic improvement and a HUGE swing from the direction it was heading.  It is going very much the right direction.

Huh?

Obama knew he was inheriting more than a $1 trillion deficit when he was campaigning in 2008.  In order for it to be 50% less, now the deficit would have to be about $500 billion.  It's not.  Either he failed or he lied.

The last Bush deficit was $1.9 trillion.  But you have been told that repeatedly.  And shown it (if ever bothered to even look...) 

And now, I keep hearing two main projections - either $ 1.3 or 1.1 trillion for fiscal 2012.  Don't know and don't care where these come from - 6 months from now, the real number will be known.  But in the meantime, BOTH are dramatic improvements over the last 3 years.  Either 30% or 45% (approx). 

One other thing these numbers show is that yes, cutting spending CAN help, but also shows without any doubt that cannot be the whole story....more revenue is mandatory.  Which gets us back to the Bush fail tax cuts without raises two years later.

Or Obama got stymied by a congress hell bent on destroying his chances for a second term and by refusing to work with the President disabled him from cutting the deficit in half. Unpatriotic and a party over country choice by the GOP/Teabaggers.

Blame Bush, blame Congress.

I've never seen a president and his enablers so bent on taking credit for other's success and blaming others for his shortcomings and failures.

"mission accomplished" wasn't a super thing.

Hell, the pretzel companies even tried to kill the previous guy.
