Makes me feel bad for Obama.
Heh, true. He's shaping up to be the perfect counter-argument against any idea of the Democrats being a party of relative fiscal responsibility.
Bush left us with a deficit of over $1 trillion, so I'm not sure what your point is.
that Obama increased 900%. Yeah no point.
No he didn't. What jfern meant was that Obama inherited the present deficit of $1 trillion, which is true. The day he took office the CBO was already projecting the deficit at $1 trillion. The first Obama budget was proposed in February 2009 for the Fiscal Year starting October 1, 2009. It
is a trillion dollar deficit, but it's actually coming in a bit lower than the last deficit. Not that that's particularly good or anything.
