US government on pace for smaller deficit in 2012

January 12, 2012 3:10 PM ET

By The Associated Press

(AP) - SMALLER DEFICIT: The U.S. federal deficit was $322 billion through the first quarter of the budget year, the Treasury Department said Thursday. That's $47 billion less than the same period last year.

STILL HIGH: The Congressional Budget Office estimates the government will run a $973 billion deficit for the entire 2012 budget year. While that's lower than last year's $1.3 trillion imbalance, it would be higher than any previous deficit before fiscal 2009.

ACCOUNTING QUIRK: A big reason for the smaller deficit was an accounting quirk, which shifted some early payments to the final week of the 2011 budget.

Liar Pelosi: Bush Created the Debt (Video)

Posted by Jim Hoft on Friday, June 24, 2011, 12:02 PM




When Speaker Nancy Pelosi took over Congress the national deficit was $162 billion. When she left office it was at $1.29 Trillion dollars.
Barack Obama (and Pelosi) doubled the US debt with his failed stimulus plan.

(CBO)
The Obama-Pelosi-Reid Regime tripled the national deficit in one year.

(The Captain?s Comments)
The Pelosi-Obama regime rammed through a failed trillion dollar non-stimulus bill. 48 of 50 states have lost jobs since the faux stimulus passed.
And, yet Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi continually lies about reducing the deficit and increasing the debt.

Today she blamed George W. Bush for the debt.

Nancy Pelosi is either pure evil or crazy, or maybe both.

SUMTER, S.C. ? Amid shaking hands and signing campaign posters, Mitt Romney did something he has never done before on the ropeline: He took out his wallet and handed a wad of cash to a woman waiting to shake his hand.:scared

The woman, 55-year-old Ruth Williams, says she has been following the Romney campaign since he arrived in the state on Jan. 11, when she said she received a message from God to track him down.

?I was on the highway praying and said, ?God just show me how to get [my] lights on,? and I pulled up to a stop sign and his bus was there,? said Williams, who has been unemployed since last October. ?And then God said, ?Follow the bus,? and I followed the bus to the airport.?

According to Williams, she followed the campaign bus to the Columbia airport on Wednesday, the same day Romney was arriving from New Hampshire. When Romney wasn?t on the bus, aides told her to go to the rally scheduled in Columbia later that day. When she showed up, Romney found her to say hello and pulled over South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley to say ?hello? too.

?He was kind to me and he made Gov. Haley come see about me,? Williams said. ?He stopped doing everything.?

Williams, who would not specify how much money Romney gave her, said also that South Carolina Treasurer Curtis Loftis paid her light bill on Thursday. A spokesman for Loftis, one of Romney?s major endorses in the state, confirmed to ABC News that he paid Williams? bill. While Loftis didn?t know the amount of the bill, he confirmed that he gave her $150.

?God didn?t tell me to go to nobody else, he told me to pray for Romney,? said Williams, when asked why she has decided to support Romney. ?I listened to the Lord.?

Williams said she has been volunteering at Romney?s Columbia headquarters since meeting his bus last week.

?They really did, they really came through for real,? she said.

While Williams would not specify how much money Romney gave her, a campaign spokesman said that he believes Romney gave the woman between $50 and $60.

Ronnie - can yu post that one again with the black woman who said that Obama was going to pay her bills and get her lights turned back on. :SIB



So now Romney is going to do what all those people thought Obama was going to?.pay their bills.

And Romney the billionaire opens his own wallet and hands out 50 bucks. :142smilie If he wanted to impress the woman it should have been a wad of 100s. But that aint the way he rolls apparantly.

Pity really


with the neo cons. what goes around, comes around
