No, what you said was quite clear.

You don't understand how this all works.

What is funny is you actually think repeating "I knocked you out" over & over constitutes some sort of fact.

No, I actually understand it very well. You on the other hand have looked very dumb. You should probably have slowly entered the convo without revealing how dumb you really are.

What kind of idiot thinks a response to the historic spending of Obama as a percent of GDP is to say "well maybe GDP went down"

My goodness, just shut up dude. You're clueless and were misled.

Except you can't explain the OMB chart if what you're claiming is true.

There's a reason he was voted the forum's dumbest poster.

You voted for me twice. Winning that competition means a lot to me. You guys are always wrong about everything. I hope your new clown friend AceBB votes for me too. That is a prized vote for the educated!

Hey stupid shit,

If Obama is on some austerity measure, why has spending hit a record level as a percent of GDP?

Don't post a chart from a left wing blog, don't type "LOL", type an answer.

I dare you.

Maybe because GDP decreased, lol. Do you understand basic math?

It is beyond comical you are trying to ignore all the spending from 2009 through 2012 which added a record amount to the federal debt.

You really are not that bright and easily misled.

One common way to measure federal spending is to compare it to the size of the overall U.S. economy. That at least puts the level into context, helping account for population growth, inflation and other factors that affect spending. Here’s what the White House’s own budget documents show about spending as a percentage of the U.S. economy (gross domestic product):
2008: 20.8 percent
2009: 25.2 percent
2010: 24.1 percent
2011: 24.1 percent
2012: 24.3 percent
2013: 23.3 percent
In the post-war era, federal spending as a percentage of the U.S. economy has hovered around 20 percent, give or take a couple of percentage points. Under Obama, it has hit highs not seen since the end of World War II

You are confusing deficits with spending. I don't blame you, that's a complicated thing to understand, lol.

No, stupid shit, see the spending led to deficits, which added to the debt.

Maybe because GDP decreased and is growing slowly. Do you understand basic math?

So as we see, they typical Obama voter has no clue as to how the federal government's accounting works.

But you post links to charts from left wing blogs that confirm your biases, you're like super-informed and stuff.
