IIRC PJBLABBER became active during the election. I know several modern 'fiscal conservatives' who act the same way as PJBLABBER regarding Obama. They never once mentioned anything about our budgets or deficits when GWB was in office. Now they send me the same kind of copy/pasted crap with hair-on-fire enthusiasm and FUD. I'll say the same thing to PJBLABBER that I say to them - the timing of your 'enlightenment' is very convenient.
Calling me out are you? I started posting here on P&N when I was killing time on a working vacation, has it been that long ago? I have since decided to take a semi-retirement to do more writing and consulting and that gives me PLENTY of time to get back at ya!
I was working overseas a good part of the Bush terms. Asia and Europe had other distractions for me than what I find here. For what it is worth, IF I were active here during the Bush Adminstration I would have been equally vocal then about increases in national debt.
The fact is, Bush had 7 very good economic years and it fell apart at the end of the eighth. In no small part due to the Democrats meddling in the financial markets. Why not lay the real blame where it belongs, on guys like Dodd and Frank and their strong arm pushes to expand sub-prime lending at all costs.
Face it - Obama, Pelosi and Reid are fiscal crack addicts. There is not a Democrat special interest program that they don't love and don't you dare pull aside the curtain, Dorothy!
