That's why you should never call Wingnuts and Teabaggers 'conservative'

"During the Reagan presidency spending averaged more than 22% of GDP, peaking at 23.5% in 1985. This year it is projected to be 21.6% of GDP."

Under President Obama, the federal budget deficit has been more than cut in half, from a FY2009 high of $1.55 trillion (largely inherited from George W. Bush) to an estimated $642 billion this year...

Overall, since 2009 government spending has risen at an annualized rate of only 1.4%, as compared to 8.1% during George W. Bush's second term, 4.9% during Ronald Reagan's, and 5.4% under George Bush the Elder. Bill Clinton averaged 3.9% during his second term.

If you read 'done that' you know that I never refer to wingnuts as 'conservatives'. It's simple; in every single comparison of Democrats to Republicans, Democrats are far more fiscally conservative than the phony rightwing imposters. When presented with the historical facts, the phony sons-of-bitches have no standing whatsoever.
