don't be an idiot.just saying it doesn't make it true.Democrats most always shrink the deficit and Republicans mostly grow it.
In 2008 we had a half trillion dollar deficit.
In 2009 we had a 1.5 trillion dollar deficit.
Seems to me the deficit was higher when Obama was in office.
because 08 numbers don't go on the books until 09 ..
The 08 numbers are reported in 09....but they are still the 08 numbers.
What are you.....like 3?
The 2009 fiscal year began October 1, 2008, nearly four months before Obama took office. The budget for the entire fiscal year was largely set in place while Bush was in the White House.
It is an inescapable fact that the FY deficit has gone down EVERY SINGLE YEAR of Obama's Administration.
You cannot say that about Bush.
It is an inescapable fact the deficit went down EVERY SINGLE YEAR of Clinton's Administration. We also added 30 million jobs during that period.
You cannot say that about Bush. Not even close.
LMFAO......did you happen to read the article the chart came from? It pretty much says that the chart itself is meaningless and does not tell the true story.
Bush increased deficits to a new world record.
The idea that the President can affect the economy more than + or - 10%, based on what they do, is ridiculous.

Its a FACT that your post is intentionally dishonest.
Bush didn't spend it....Congress did.Once again, for the slow of mind. From CATO, a libertarian organization. So hardly an Obama worshipping group. They have the integrity to put the blame where it belongs.
Don't Blame Obama for Bush's 2009 Deficit

bullshit ... G is 100% correct.
nice try. Not interested in playing your silly childish games.yup.Did you look at the chart? Like actually look at it?
It shows the deficit for 2008 at about half a trillion....deficit in 2009 at about 1.5 trillion and the deficit now at about a half a trillion.
Did you look at it? Like actually look at it?
So it's beneath where he started. You just stated it yourself. .5 trillion is less than 1.5 trillion.
You're smarter than this.
His first year deficit was 3 times the previous years deficit....and now this years deficit is what it was the year before he took office.
Exactly what I was saying.
Games? Are you under the impression that he Obama controlled the 2009 number?
No the far left Congress was in control of that, the same Congress Obama had for two years!
Silly far left drones and their two year old mentality!

I didn't say it wasn't factually correct, I said it was intentionally dishonest go work in your reading comprehension.
the inflated deficit of 2009 was not a result of the budget passed in 2008..nice try. Not interested in playing your silly childish games.yup.
It shows the deficit for 2008 at about half a trillion....deficit in 2009 at about 1.5 trillion and the deficit now at about a half a trillion.

So are we talking about Obama or Congress? It's mighty convenient to be able to jump back and forth like that.
Then EXACTLY what percentage of the public and private debt is congress responsible for, and what percentage of the public and private debt is Obama responsible for?The idea that the President can affect the economy more than + or - 10%, based on what they do, is ridiculous.
Earlier, I posted a chart of combined public and private debt, and how that is what is strangling our economy.
The President and Congress are responsible for the public debt part of the equation, and so they have more than 10 percent responsibility for the health of the economy.
