You said i wasn't true that Obama had shrunk the deficit. Read the CBO numbers and weep, Jeff.

Notice how Bush took the budget SURPLUS (which you denied even existed) and obliterated it in your first graph.

[deborahkla]

You did indeed, in another thread elsewhere in this community. You said there was no budget surplus at the end of Clinton's term. That's why Bush doesn't count; because he obliterated the first budget surplus in 40 years.

[deborahkla]

Once again, Bush doesn't count because in two years he managed to obliterate the first budget SURPLUS in 40 years. A SURPLUS created by a Democrat, something no Republican has been able to do. In a previous dust-up between you and me, you denied that such a surplus even existed.

Again, prove it.

Oh, I will, Jeff, you can count on it. It'll take some time to go through all our dust-ups, but I'll prove it to you.

Wait, wait.

Even assuming all your premises are 100% true, you're trying to claim that "a tax increase that causes a budget surplus" does not "cause a budget surplus"?

Do you listen to yourself?

You're full of shit if you think revenues have nothing to do with surpluses and deficits.

Yay! I don't have to do the research after all. You're still full of shit, as your cited thread proves. As far as apologizing is concerned, fuck you very much, Jeff.
