Maybe Mitch Does Want To Ruin The Economy

June 30th, 2011 · 5 Comments

Here’s a ten minute video of Mitch McConnell ruining the country:




The most interesting part of the video, as you have likely now discovered, was the crazy cough at the beginning.

    I had to stop watching about 45 seconds into it (vomit).
    …as if the democrats are the only party who spent beyond their means?
    I’m not pleased at all with the rising debt/deficit…but seriously…President Obama did in fact inherit an 11trillion dollar debt, government bailouts that were in progress, and many trillions more in unfunded and underfunded mandates and programs…most all of which were racked up in DC when the repubs controlled everything.
    This speech was an insult to my intelligence.

    When Pelosi and Reid took control, the National Debt soared about 5 trillion dollars thru 2010.
    The SIX years the republicans controlled congress and executive branches the debt increased nearly 4 trillion dollars.
    The first two years Obama, Pelosi and Reid ran our country, the debt increased 3.5 trillion.
    TOO MANY POWER HUNGRY POLITICIANS!!
    Six years should be limit. One six year term for the president and the senators, and 3 two year terms for representatives.
    Obama’s speech? Was typical for a playground spat.

    Uhm… part of the increase in the debt after President Obama took over was because of two wars, that were previously not on the books, being put on the books.

    Just sayin…

    “Mitch Does Only One Thing: He Lies”

    E, you are so right. The Bush administration is much more responsible for the bad economy, and recent polls show that the Amurkin public knows that is so. Mitch coughed at the start of his speech perhaps because he knew he was readying yet another pack of lies. When will he and the GOP get off their asses and do something for the average Amurkin? What a way to “celebrate” July 4th! Go to hell, Mitch!

    @Roger
    You are indeed correct, Bush split the cost of the war (in Iraq, and to a lesser degree, Afghanistan), from the budget. Obama, rightfully, put the costs back in the same book.

    With that said, it brings to mind a episode of GPS with Paul O’Neal (R) Treasury Secretary under Bush and Robert Rubin (D) Treasury Secretary under Clinton. Date 08/2010

    http://globalpublicsquare.blogs.cnn.com/2010/08/08/gps-august-8-2010-treasury-secretaries-rubin-oneill-hamid-gul-serbian-foreign-minister-the-controversy-at-ground-zero/

    Mr O’Neal was fired because he advised raising taxes to pay for the war. I now have a greater respect for this man after hearing this episode. See the 17.01 mark

    While I was looking for the above episode, I came across another episode with these two gentlemen (who offered GREAT level-headed, conversations), concerning the budget battle. Note the date, 04/24/2011

    http://globalpublicsquare.blogs.cnn.com/2011/04/24/gps-this-week-budget-battles-and-how-to-succeed-at-life/

    Based on the statements from O’Neal and Rubin, mitch is, well hell…..I can’t even BEGIN to tell you what I think of him.
