Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

This does not belong in pics, take your liberal circlejerks back to /r/politics!

[–]Sobek -3 points-2 points ago

Alluding the Republicans and their policies caused the national debt crisis is 'liberal circlejerking' now? I thought it was just the truth.

[–]deubski 6 points7 points ago

I'm pretty sure Obama did a lot more. By pretty sure I mean positive

[–]comawhite94 -1 points0 points ago

Nope.

http://www.npr.org/blogs/itsallpolitics/2012/05/22/153293789/under-obama-federal-govt-spends-at-lowest-rate-in-decades-says-journalist

And Bush's economic plan did (and still does) add to the deficit.

[–]Sobek -1 points0 points ago

Have you ever picked up a newspaper or read news online, or do you get your info from Rush Limbaugh?

[–]artbs -3 points-2 points ago

You mean "legitimate circlejerking".

[–]devilsadvocated 13 points14 points ago

I'm voting for President Obama because he's done more in under one term than President bush did in two! The national debt only went up by 4.9 trillion dollars during the two terms of the Bush presidency, but it has gone up by over 4.9 trillion dollars since President Obama took office. I won't settle for second class Republican spending, I want Obama spending, that's change I can believe in!

[–]original_locutus 13 points14 points ago

Change? His "open" administration is the most closed to public scrutiny in history!

[–]devilsadvocated 12 points13 points ago

Yes but it's twice as expensive as Bush's so it must be good!

[–]original_locutus 7 points8 points ago

No argument there...

[–]devilsadvocated 10 points11 points ago

It's like the MacBook Pro of government administrations, man!

[–]Nameisbrokicker -2 points-1 points ago

Take your liberal circlejerks back to /r/politics. No one here wants your bogus shit.

[–]devilsadvocated 8 points9 points ago

But Obama is going to legalize pot, stop the wars, cut the deficit, create jobs, reduce government waste, have the most open and transparent administration in history, give us all better jobs, provide free and economically sustainable healthcare, and mend foreign relations. How could you be against that? I'm sure he'll get started in his second term. Hope and change man, hope and change.

[–]Memoren 2 points3 points ago

Don't forget the paying off of other peoples student loans because we totally have that money.

[–]devilsadvocated 1 point2 points ago

Oooh, maybe I should go back for that doctorate after all!

[–]Naldaen 2 points3 points ago

You forgot Guantanamo and the Patriot Act. Those were disappearing 1/20/2009. Remember?

[–]judgemebymyusername 0 points1 point ago

cut the deficit

LOL

[–]asimovfan1 16 points17 points ago

Yeah, cause Republicans are all TWATS but Democrats are all really honest and the only people who have good ideas! YEAH! YEAH!!

[–]Thoraxe 6 points7 points ago

aaaannnndd..... we're circlejerkin'!

[–]Borr -3 points-2 points ago

Amen. Democrats are driving this country into the ground.

[–]asimovfan1 0 points1 point ago

Democrats AND Republicans! AND Tea Partiers! And Third Day Adventists! AND Liberal Misogynistic Ultra-Winger Waffle Eaters! AND the Green Party! WARBLGARHBLE........!!!!!!

[–]Qbert_Spuckler 5 points6 points ago

correction

[–]AutoCompliant 2 points3 points ago

REPOST ACCOMPLISHED

[–]Duncables 4 points5 points ago

honestly, if its still on the front 3 pages then there is no excuse for this

[–]TibiaFibulaJNX 0 points1 point ago

I read this as "We Bull Shit" first.

[–]treonetre 0 points1 point ago

Good point. Republicans are to blame for the 16 trillion dollars of debt. You're right. This is not only a repost but a stupid fucking repost at that.

[–]iriemeditation -2 points-1 points ago

yea, all the wars are the peaceful liberals fault

[–]mrbigglessworth 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, not a SINGLE democrat contributed to that.

[–]Cancerous86 0 points1 point ago

This is shopped.

I'm all for making fun of Republicans but can we at least keep it honest?

[–]comawhite94 1 point2 points ago

It is not shopped. If you watch Ryan's speech, the sign is directly under the debt clock.

[–]Moops7 -1 points0 points ago

Even a liberal can’t be so stupid as to post this…

[–]iriemeditation -3 points-2 points ago

And even a CONservative can't be so blind to deny that it is true... endless wars and greedy tax cuts don't come for free

[–]Moops7 -1 points0 points ago

sigh Please do your research before coming on here and looking stupid. Thanks.

[–]comawhite94 -1 points0 points ago

What research are you alluding to? If I decrease the amount of money I make and increase my spending, I will likely be in a much worse situation financially. The same is true of the government.

[–]judgemebymyusername 0 points1 point ago

Congratulations, the fact that you just realized that makes you a republican.

[–]comawhite94 0 points1 point ago

Not really. Republicans are the ones who want tax cuts while increasing defense spending. Not that Dems are completely innocent but at least Obama is saying we should raise taxes on the richest 1%

[–]judgemebymyusername 0 points1 point ago

but at least Obama is saying we should raise taxes on the richest 1%

That's nice. How much revenue will that bring in? Guess what, even if you took all the wealth of the top 1% and put it towards the deficit it would hardly make a dent. The only solution is to cut spending, and I at least know the repubs will do that. And yes, defense spending should be cut quite a bit.

[–]judgemebymyusername 1 point2 points ago

How much debt did Obama create in 4 years? How much debt did Bush add in 8? If you research those two numbers you'll see how wrong you are. Educate yourself.

[–]SleepyGhoul 1 point2 points ago

Also please pay attention to how much spending the bush administration was on defense spending. It is sad reddit is such a total liberal circle jerk
