You really think democrats are saints, dont you? You have a lot to learn, young one.

I ask the question because I WANT to learn. I'm not saying they never have, I'm doubtful, but I want to know if they've been as horrible as the republicans are now.

Fair enough. I apologize for jumping to conclusions.

That should be self explanatory

Democrat = lower deficits (And this is true for obama, his first budget deficit is lower than bush's last), republicans = higher

How was the Iraq war good for our country?

I want to see sources for those graphs.

You do realize that if the top two percent and the evil business owners don't grow then there is growth and jobs don't get created..

A long and persistent middle-class squeeze

The Great Divergence In Pictures: A visual guide to income inequality.

Source is listed there. I tried finding a more concrete source, I believe all the data comes from Historical Income Tables - Income Inequality - U.S Census Bureau

I also found this, which is more of the same:

And growth at the top isn't bad, growth at the top while the other 98% of people stagnate is.

I'll stick to a recent example, since you haven't payed attention to politics until 2008. Repealing the filibuster. Its only become a Democratic battle cry since they have controlled congress. You think Dems weren't using the filibuster before 2008 when republicans controlled congress?

No, but they haven't been using it nearly as much.

You asked for an example of the Dems doing it too, not an example of them doing it as much, more, or whatever. You are letting your partisan bias get in the way or logical reasoning again.

Sounded like most of America liked the use of the filibuster over the last 2 years anyway. Almost sounds like the dems do not like doing the will of the people but rather the will of a small portion of the people. The programs that the democrats installed over the years also chew up over 50% of their budgets.

It sounds like most Americans liked the use of filibuster over the last 2 years if the only thing you watch/listen to is the right wing corporate media. Obama's 365 electoral votes tells you what the people want.
