Looks like St Reagan is the all time winner in the debt increasing contest.
The cons have been trying to destroy Social Security, Medicare, food stamps and healthcare since they were created. And now with the $17 trillion national debt that THEY created, the cons think they have justification to destroy those programs.
The last three republican presidents are responsible for over $12 trillion of the national debt, with tax welfare to millionaires and corporate business, and the Iraq/Afghan wars. THE POOR AND MIDDLE CLASS DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY OFF THE NATIONAL DEBT. The only way it's going to get paid off, is if those with the money pay it. But cons don't want it paid off, they just want to destroy those social programs.
Ronnie Raygun almost tripled the national debt in his eight years, building nuclear bombs and a STAR WARS fantasy.
Shrub daddy doubled it again in only four years, with the start of the Iraq war.
Clinton actually balanced the budget, which Shrub Jr. destroyed in his first six months.
And Shrub Jr. also doubled the national debt again, adding more than all presidents before him added together. AND he also destroyed not only the U.S. economy, but also the global economy. He left Obama with a $1.2 trillion annual deficit, which the cons try to blame Obama for.
Obama has cut that $1.2 trillion deficit in half in the last five years, while trying to bring this country out of the GREAT RECESSION Shrub Jr. left him with. All the while, the GOP has been obstructing all efforts to do so.
And now their solution is to fuck the elderly by destroying Social Security and Medicare, fucking the poor by destroying food stamps, taking food from the mouths of children, destroying unemployment benefits to workers that have lost their jobs because the cons have allowed corporations to send all the factory jobs to China.
The cons believe that throwing the elderly and the poor out in the street is going to make this country better. Like fifty million homeless it a good idea.
If you buy the con vision, you get what you deserve.
Here's a clue. We had a democrat congress until 94.
A Republican congress balanced the budget, Clinton got the credit. As he should.
Early in W's presidency an incident commonly referred to as 9/11 happened.
You may have heard about it.
Clinton was and is a smart politician. He saw the writing on the wall and went along with the Republican congress. He even got points with his OWN side for mitigating some of the changes his side didn't like, i.e. welfare reform, while still passing it.
I agree Marty. I'm not a big Clinton fan at all, but he played the hand he was dealt very well. He was smart enough to recognize the political realities.
I wish today's GOP would copy some of that. Instead of drawing a big line in the sand and demanding all or nothing, I wish they would mitigate whenever they can. By not doing that, they've taken their platform completely off the table and the Democrats have gotten absolutely everything they want. Without any mitigation.
I don't like Clinton at all - but he was obviously a whole lot smarter politically than today's crop of Republicans.

Your call.
What Obama has added is the result of cleaning up Shrub's destruction of the economy.

The Republicans have been fighting big spending for years. They create their election platforms on the same. This administration has been spending out of control it has to stop. There have been individual spending problems with members on each side when it comes to earmarks. This just has to stop. Both parties have to stop "buying votes" with the tax payers money and be responsible to the country for its fiscal future.

OK so you admit that Obama added more debt than Bush. That's a start.Shrub Jr. had a republican Senate and House of Reps. when he was doubling the national debt, and destroying the economy.
Bush's term added about $5T over 8 years.
Obama has added $7T in 5 years.
