Obama and Dems have been spending massively, yet this is the weakest recovery in 80 years, moonbat.On what planet?Obama Channels Eisenhower With Anemic Government Spending GrowthFederal outlays over the past three years grew at their slowest pace since 1953-56, when Dwight D. Eisenhower was president. Expenditures as a share of the economy sank last year to 22.8 percent, their lowest level since 2008, according to Congressional Budget Office data. That’s down from 24.1 percent in 2011 and a 64-year high of 25.2 percent in 2009, when Obama pushed through an $831 billion stimulus package."If you strip out the stimulus, discretionary spending over the last few years has been quite modest and is scheduled to go to levels we haven’t experienced in modern times," Robert Reischauer, a former director of the CBO, said in an interview. "Obama signed on to that," partly in response to Republican pressure.http://www.bloomberg...ing-growth.htmlObama can't spend any money that Congress does not appropriate, and your party has been in control of the House for over two years, and in essence in control of the Senate as well, with their unprecedented use of the filibuster.Yet you absolve them of any and all guilt.
