santorum president/obama lies

And this is why Santorum has to be the next president.
He, out of the only three real contenders left in the election (Paul is just a joke), is the only true conservative.

He's the only one who can give us something different than what we have now.
And we all know that man in the White House has got to go. Anybody who can outright lie to the American people and say, "Anyone who tells you otherwise, anyone who tells you that America is in decline or that our influence has waned, doesn't know what they're talking about."

One of Obama's lies to the United States

Noooo, we're not in decline. We haven't lost our AAA rating. Our unemployment rate isn't through the roof. Our debt... well, let's just look at our debt over the past 12ish years (somebody has to because our president sure isn't).

In 2000 when Bush was elected, he came into office with almost 6 trillion dollars of debt. He, like Obama had a mess to clean up. Whoever says that Clinton balanced the budget is just ignorant.

Bush left, having raised the debt less than 3 trillion - over the course of 8 years. Obama, however, has raised the debt 6 trillion dollars over 3 years. That's double what Bush did in his entire 8-year administration.

Let's take a look at our current president, shall we?

When Obama came into office with 9+ trillion, we all know Bush gave him some stuff to clean up. (You forget, though, that Bush came into office with 6 trillion dollars of debt and no expectations of being attacked by terrorists - war=$ -)

I'll give Obama that much.
But Bush didn't give him a 2000+ page healthcare bill.
Bush didn't give him Libya.
Bush didn't give him so much more that he's done to this nation.

And how long is it the previous president's mess considered the previous president's mess?
When does it become the new president's problems and responsibilities?
Evidently this country doesn't have any problems. We're soaring!!  We're so influential everybody wants to be just like us!
Fifteen trillion dollars in debt.
Multiple wars.
A terrible relationship with Israel.
An extremely high unemployment rate (oh. I'm sorry. It's dropped to 8.5. How critical of me. Mind you, Bush kept it between 4.2 and 7.3, but Obama can't seem to keep it below 7.8. he sure can get it to 10%, though!)
And if you think that we're not soaring, if you think our country is in decline, your opinion is absolutely ridiculous and you "don't know what [you're] talking about."

I know it looks like I'm comparing Bush and Obama. I am. Bush wasn't my favorite president either. But don't give Bush the "he gave Obama so much debt" garbage when you should actually be looking at the current president who may or may not be creating jobs? That's still up for debate. When I see the unemployment rate drop more than .5 percent in 4 months, I'll reevaluate.

I'm sorry I'm not sorry. I obviously have no clue what I'm talking about.
