When Republican leaders with their muses and followers repeat day after day Obama's stimulus failed I point them to the economic indicators from the Dallas Fed that show otherwise every Monday.

When I hear we must resist cuts to our defense spending but increase spending 20% lest we undermine our armed forces I'll point them to this chart and ask why?

And when I hear everyone talking about how Romney won that first debate with Obama, considering the main stream media is so "in favor" of Obama (LOL) I ask why we celebrate liars in political venues when we don't tolerate cheats in baseball?

And yes, the US government has had a problem stimulating economic growth as of late. We as a country did our best job of that back in the late 1950s under Ike when the tax rate for a couple earning over $400K/year was 91%. American businesses were plowing their profits back into their businesses rather than give it to the government. Today, we invest our profits overseas in Austrilasian gas wells. Just how does that help good old John Q Public?

The fact is that facts have a clearly liberal bias.
