Tuesday Night Charts & Graphs – Spending, Taxes, and the Deficit under Obama
May 15, 2012 5 Comments
Michael Linden, the Director for Tax and Budget Policy at the Center for American Progress Action Fund, has provided a terrific chart for ThinkProgress. Turns out that spending, taxes, and the deficit are all lower under President Obama than they were when he took office. I’d rather that strategic spending went up in order to recover from the depression, but hey, it’s nice to have a few facts introduced into the political discussion on deficits and the like. If you know a way to get the mainstream media to pay attention, please let me know!

This is interesting, but Fox News are not swayed by the facts
Not even if presented in compelling and amusing lists of ten?
Nope. They are not easily amused and often have trouble counting

There are 2 things that make me want to believe this:
1. I would like to think that somehow someway that there is some progress being made in Washington.
2. I can’t help but cheer for President Obama when there are so many people so hate him without cause…
