Quote:Tripling the deficit, while watching revenues plummet by 60% doesn't qualify as brave until we actually pull out of the nose dive and get control of our spending and rebuild a thriving economy.Total federal revenues are down by *sixty percent*? Where'd you get that figure?
The "Obama doesn't get to be an American hero until he's a Libertarian hero" might make sense for you, but other people are hardly bound to follow your opinion on the matter. The deficit did not just triple suddenly from unsound management. It tripled (in the short run) because that was the advice of Obama's economists as to how to "rebuild a thriving economy".
