Deficits were dropping well before Republicans took CongressThat's not true.That's satire, right?I wasn't saying anything good about repubs.. They were elected to decrease debt, they never do that..
They did it during the Clinton administration. They've lowered the deficit greatly under DumBama. Without DumBama, we would probably have a balanced budget and then some to pay off the debt.
No, it's reality. Just like reality is you want to give DumBama credit for any occurrence that happens to be positive but blame Republicans and Bush when things (most of them) don't go his way.
The United States Congress are the people that write laws, create a budget and spend our money. With the exception of the Bush years, the Republicans in Congress have limited and lowered spending both during the Clinton and DumBama administrations.
Sure it is. Look at our lower deficits after Republicans took over leadership of Congress during the DumBama years. Under Clinton, we not only had a balanced budget, but a projected surplus to boot.
They just passed their first budget a week ago
