Liberals: Can Obama and Dems do any wrong? Conservatives: Arn't most repubs RINO's?

I see it all too much that the left seems to pin EVERYTHING on Bush or just Republicans. While Bush was certainly not a good president, President Obama has been in the chair for about 5 years. You conveniently forget that the left is also responsible for just as much destruction to our country. They have perpetuated our debt, and display this facade of "we appreciate civil liberties", but do nothing to defend them. 1/3 (on average) of our entire paychecks every year goes to the government. About 33 cents of every dollar you make. How much taxes is enough? Shouldn't we cut SOMETHING?

Like the Dems, Repubs fail to create any type of budget that would reduce our debt. Any budget that has been proposed only reduces the rate of spending, not reduce the debt itself. You also tend to sway towards a conservative approach of domestic issues like marijuana, and abortion. (I don't agree with abortion, however, I don't believe it is my place to choose what someone else does, nor do I think it is anyone Else's.) If you truly appreciate the constitution, you will know that the 10th amendment specifically leaves issues like these to the states, or the people, and not the federal government. It should be about freedom, not moral control. I thought being a republican was about working hard, and liberty.

"Over the last four years, the deficit has gone up, but 90 percent of that is as a consequence of" President George W. Bush’s policies and the recession. -Barack Obama

This statement is false. In Fact Obama continued, and supported most of these pricey programs

"Fast and Furious" began under the Bush administration. - Barack Obama

This statement is false. It began in 2009 under his administration.

The plain truth of it all? It's everybody's fault. Republican and Democrat. Spin it how you want.

"To summarize, the largest culprit in the rise of the national debt is increased federal spending, mainly due to social programs. Secondarily, federal revenues are down as a consequence of lower tax receipts from all income groups. In this regard, it is important not to confuse lower tax revenues with lower marginal tax rates. As federal data going back to 1950 shows, tax revenues and marginal tax rates don’t necessarily correspond—and tax policies that allow for a robust economy can result in more tax revenues with lower marginal tax rates.

This data on federal spending and revenues are the concrete causes of the national debt, and if one is looking for someone to blame or someone to remedy the problem, it ultimately boils down to those who have the most power to control these factors: American citizens who exercise their right to vote."

My question is, despite all of the evidence, despite all of the facts, why do you continue to support these elitists who are not looking out for your best interests, but to look good in the eyes of the people who vote for them? Wouldn't you rather support freedom than statism?

Don't say it's pointless to support another party. If your saying that, it's because your not even trying. Your a part of the problem then
