In PNAC in 2000, Cheney basically says they need a "new Pearl Harbor" to get the war machine up and running.

Not to mention that "deficits don't matter. We can go to war and cut taxes. We'll just blame the next guy for running up the debt."

That's the fucktarded post of the day ...
Just because someone else ran up a deficit (let's forget the reasons behind it for the time being as it really isn't central to the point) doesn't mean that it gives the next guy the right to do the same and shrug the shoulders like it isn't their problem.

Except the deficit has fallen faster under Obama than any other time since the 1950s. Partially because of Obama (tax increases), partially because the economy (much better now than in 2009), and partially cause Congress can't agree on shit.
Regardless, cutting taxes and going to war doesnt reduce the deficit.

Sorry ... I was wrong. Your prior post wasn't the most fucktarded of the day. Your latest post is.
Let's summarize your claims in your post:
1) The deficit has fallen faster under Obama than any time since the 1950s.
2) Obama deserves significant credit for this
3) Bush is an idiot and it's not Obama's fault because Bush cut taxes and went to war running up a huge deficit for Obama.
Now, let's talk reality:
1) You rightfully deflect from the magnitude of Obama's deficits and instead focus on percentage drops to prop up Obama's record. There's a huge problem with that and it shows with about a millisecond of thought. If you look at the following link: http://www.usgovernmentspending.com/federal_deficit_chart.html, what you'll find is that there was a massive uptick in the deficit in 2009 heading into Obama's term. Why was that? While on one hand, you could very easily assign some of the blame to Bush, there was a very significant event that happened in the 2008/2009 time period - wasn't there? The banking bailouts that started at the back end of 2008 and into 2009 is the singular cause of the increase in the deficit.
While you can give Obama credit for taking the deficit down (eventually), it's important to note that not only did it take Obama until the FY13 fiscal year for his deficit to drop under $1 trillion a year and since the drop in FY13, it has remained relatively stable since then.
With the exception of FY09, there was not a single year during Bush's presidency where he ran a deficit HIGHER than the LOWEST deficit ran (or projected to run) under Obama. And while you can point to the banking bailout as a reason for Obama's deficits, Bush dealt with not only the military fallout of 9/11 as well as the depressed economy that stemmed from that.
2) Most objective commentary suggests that Obama's policies have benefits the upper class the most, the lower class the next, and in the grand scheme of things probably hurt the middle class.
If you look at the taxes collected, it's important to look at the receipts collected in a constant dollar since it accounts for inflation, currency fluctuations, etc. See attached: http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/taxfacts/displayafact.cfm?Docid=200. From a magnitude standpoint, the amounts under Obama (particularly in his 1st term) were underwhelming. Second, if you look at the difference between receipts and outlays, you'll find that the deficits that Obama was and is running are massive. This suggests to me that Obama's big talk about large tax collections can be supported by the numbers when they trot out the collection numbers and increases accordingly, but when you look at all the outlays that are made in the process, you realize that it's a song and dance show. And finally, if you look at the receipts as a percentage of GDP, what you'll find is that there's a strong relationship between the health of the nation's economy and tax receipts. The recipe for generating strong tax revenues for the government has never been a secret. It's the whole concept that those that like to bash trickle down economics fail to understand. If I have more money, I'm more likely to spend more money. In the course of spending more money, that means somebody else has more money. Wealth is generated by exchanging funds and increasing the concept of the money multiplier. Wealth is concentrated and destroyed when wealth is horded and protected.
3) You can bash a lot about Bush and there's areas where he did better than some people thought he did and other areas where he deserves to take shit. But the whole view of Obama supporters, and in time what you'll also hear in 2016 when Clinton runs will be that it's all Bush's fault. You can only continue that charade for so long. The numbers, when you actually look into them, normalize them, and have an understanding of its drivers, do not paint Obama as a skilled President when it comes to the economic side of things.

God you are a moron. Take the bailout (ie one-off expense) and Obama hasn't done shite on the budget.
Keep *Gurgling*...
