lol you have to remember you talking to a guy with Beth the bounty hunter as his avatar Confusednicker:


I'm trying to come up with a candidate that is anywhere close to being as far off of mainstream American values as Barack Obama. If you rolled up all the bad points of every president from Eisenhower forward to 2008, you'd still be talking light years, LOL. There is no defense for this guy. Every liberal that steps up to give that a try can only try to paint Romney as a worse choice. In essence they ceed your point but go on to make a character attack or something equally as tiresome. It's not that were Romney of low character that wouldn't be worth bringing up. The problem these goofs have in doing their slam 101, is he's a good man. His personal life, his public record as governor of Mass, and his professional life are spotless. (In fact, his record as governor is remarkable) They still keep trying though.

They can't name a single legislative triumph or successful policy, for Barack. We aren't better off these 4 years down the road from the Obama inauguration. We're much worse. Romney's successes are so superior to Obama's even the liberal clowns of the DNC are finding the challenge to be daunting. Romney is a proven legislator who balanced the budget in Mass despite looking at a 3 billion dollar deficit going in, and left them with a +700million dollar surplus. This is a real surplus now, not the so called surplus Clinton left---Clinton ran deficits throught all 8 years of his term, and one can go to the US Treasury Department and looking through the history of the total outstanding debt through Clintons term. Every year Clinton was in office, the total national debt continued to climb.

How Clinton managed to claim a surplus was that while the general operating budgets ran deficits but Clinton borrowed from numerous off budget funds to make the on budget fund a surplus.

For example, in 2000, Clinton claimed a $230B surplus, but Clinton borrowed
$152.3B from Social Security
$30.9B from Civil Service Retirement Fund
$18.5B from Federal Supplementary Medical insurance Trust Fund
$15.0B from Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund
$9.0B from the Federal Unemployment Trust Fund
$8.2B from Military Retirement Fund
$3.8B from Transportation Trust Funds
$1.8B from Employee Life Insurance & Retirement fund
$7.0B from others

Total borrowed from off budget funds $246.5B, meaning that his $230B surplus is actually a $16.5B deficit.
($246.5B borrowed - $230B claimed surplus = $16.5B actual deficit).

If there is ever a true surplus, then the national debt will go down. [Answers] Meanwhile, Romney is rather peerless fiscally.
