    Saying that the nation's fiscal problems will not be solved with "any one step alone," President Obama this morning signed an executive order creating the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform. Then as expected, he named former Sen. Alan Simpson (R-Wy) and former Clinton White House Chief of staff Erskine Bowles as the group's co-chairs.

    Obama said the commission will be charged with making clear recommendations on how to balance the budget excluding interest payments by 2015 and ways to improve the long-term fiscal health of the nation. That, the administration said, would stabilize the debt-to-GDP ratio at an acceptable level once the economy recovers. The commission will be asked to address changes to the growth of entitlement programs, as well as the gap between projected revenues and expenditures over the long-term. Any recommendations would have to receive approval by 14 of 18 commission members, guaranteeing bipartisan support. The panel must issue its recommendations by Dec. 1.

    Tell me Gay Bob, why did your President say he was going to eliminate the deficit but instead it's gone up during his tenure? Did he lie to us?

    First upvote I have ever given you in the Tug. I am disgusted that my? party, the once proud party of fiscal conservatism is now functionally no different than the Dems. They just all want to spend money on different shit. Not just Trump either. 2/3rds of the idiots in Congress in the GOP, Bush 2, etc. Totally sold out on the principle of smaller government. It's a fucking joke.

    For the same reason Obama said he was going to cut the deficit. Are you under some belief that I don't think Trump is a liar? Now, speaking of liars, tell me how the emoluments clause applied to Ivanka in 2012?

    So you do think he is a liar yet you still take his word every single time. Does that make you gullible or just stupid?

    Tell me, does the emoluments clause apply to Trump and his family in 2017 and beyond? Does Trump still own a property in Istanbul? Go on and hold onto the 2012 tweet as if he's had no international business deals since. Bitchass partisan Kunt.

    Who do you pretend the strawman is when you fuck it in the ass IC?

    Why did you post the Tweet from 2012 dumbfuck and try to use it to run interference for Biden and his son?
