Like I was sayin… blame that other guy.
Six months into the Obama administration and Democrats continue to push the deficit on Bush. A great post over at Conservative Patriot HQ puts some of the facts out there.
Recently, Steny Hoyer told a group of UVA grads how Bush handed Obama a $1.3 trillion deficit. However, the chart in the article shows otherwise.
Since Obama has taken office, the deficit has quadrupled to over $1.85 trillion according to the CBO.
The other point is that the democrats have been in charge of congress since 2006. It is congress that sets the spending limits and the budget.
It will be interesting to see who they blame for the deficit next year.
