Where are your 'facts' coming from?

I have no problems with your facts and/or figures...and not sure if you understand my point...

My point is, as you admit in your post, is that the Republicans are over spending and pushing this country closer to economic peril, just as the Democrats are...I'm not here to split hairs over which president or budget spent more of our GDP while in office, that's neither here nor there to me...but you can go to the CBO web site here: http://www.cbo.gov/publications/bysubject.cfm?cat=1 and do all the fact checking you would like if you want to make sure everyone's numbers are accurate...

It sickens me that no one in Washington would even consider submitting a balanced budget and instead, we have both parties issuing talking points as to why their budget proposal is more in line with what the American people want and the other's is so horribly bad for America...when the fact is, is that neither budget proposal from either party is satisfactory in my opinion.

And don't start with the "what would YOU cut?" because we will all just talk in circles as to why this nor that can be cut ... the fact is, that hard decisions need to be made at some point and since no one in Washington has had the balls to do anything for essentially the past 30 years, it is...as I think I appropriately titled this thread...Business as usual...
