            FTA: "Hella is North Californian slang for "very" or "a lot of". Mr Sendek and his supporters argue that its adoption would be a fitting honour for the state's impressive record of scientific research. " I think it is also fitting, given CA's impressive record of spending.

              none with a catchy name like "dubya" ! and dubya leads all recent Dems, and even defict-balooner Reagan, by a long shot. http://www.bushlastdayparty.com/img/chart-usDeficit.gif[^]

                  since Obama has only been in office for a single budget year, i couldn't find any charts with his numbers.

                      One of Dubyas aides came to him one morning "Mr President 3 Brazilian soldiers died in Iraq last night" Bush pondered this and finally said "Thats terrible, how many is a brazillion?" ;P

                            How about just stopping at yotta and extend by using existing designations for numbers of zeros, e.g. kiloyotta KY) is 27 zeros, MY is 30 zeros, and 72 zeros is yotta yotta yotta ...

                                    1. a projection != reality. any chart which makes any specific claims about the budget in 2012 is BS. 2. as i'm sure you're well aware, a lot of the Obama deficit projection is due to the fact that Obama is not hiding the cost of Bush's two wars in off-budget "emergency" spending, as Bush did. more importantly, the idea that Republicanism has anything to do with fiscal responsibility is truly laughable. there hasn't been a fically-responsible Republican in the White House in 50 years. not a single Republican President in modern times has done a single thing to lower the deficit.

                                        LOL! The chart you used (which seems to be from 2009.01) spoke to Bush's 2008 deficit. In 2010.02, I only spoke to Obama's 2009 huge deficit. Apples to apples.

                                        a lot of the Obama deficit projection is due to the fact that Obama is not hiding the cost of Bush's two wars in off-budget "emergency" spending

                                        While Bush's 'Budgets' did not include the war costs, the deficits in the chart shown do include the war costs. :) Again, Obama (who really has come to 'own' the Afghan war, don't you think?), in his first year has almost out-deficited Bush's eight years. :wtf: According to these obviously pro-war folks, Iraq is about 710 giga bucks, Afghani about 260 giga bucks.[^] So ALL of Bush's hidden war funding, PLUS the open Obama funding is less than 1000 giga bucks. The DoD is asking for less than 200 giga bucks for 2011. You don't think Obama would let them lie about the cost,do you? So the entire cost of both wars is a little more than half of Obama's first deficit. In other words, that lie does not float, less than 20% of the deficit is war costs.

                                          LOL! The chart you used (which seems to be from 2009.01) spoke to Bush's 2008 deficit. In 2010.02, I only spoke to Obama's 2009 huge deficit. Apples to apples.

                                          go ahead, look up the real numbers. i'll wait.

                                          i like the implication that a new president starts with a clean slate, a completely balanced budget, and nothing the previous administration did has any effect on anything. it's as if the recession started on inauguration day, as if the structural elements of the budget magically came into being 1/09. it's awesome! best of all, your precious republicans remain blameless - it' all Obama's fault! yay for W !

                                          right right. it's a big conspiracy. and it's all the Dem's fault. typical Republican idiocy.

                                          for someone who's "not a rep", you sure do spend a lot of effort defending them. in fact, it's about all you've done here. therefore, i call BS.
