What Did Bingley’s President Do to Piss Off His Biggest Media Boosters?
I’m not reading anything in this Mark Knoller piece but “his, his, HIS”!, and it’s not about “BRILLIANT ideas”.
National Debt has increased more under Obama than under Bush
(CBS News) The National Debt has now increased more during President Obama’s three years and two months in office than it did during 8 years of the George W. Bush presidency.
The Debt rose $4.899 trillion during the two terms of the Bush presidency. It has now gone up $4.939 trillion since President Obama took office.
The latest posting from the Bureau of Public Debt at the Treasury Department shows the National Debt now stands at $15.566 trillion. It was $10.626 trillion on President Bush’s last day in office, which coincided with President Obama’s first day.
The National Debt also now exceeds 100% of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product, the total value of goods and services.
If Mr. Obama wins re-election, and his budget projections prove accurate, the National Debt will top $20 trillion in 2016, the final year of his second term. That would mean the Debt increased by 87 percent, or $9.34 trillion, during his two terms.
He wouldn’t be so bold as to imply The Light Wielder owns this mess…would he?

So Obama is a new and improved Dubya, eh?
Hereafter, I think I’ll refer to Obama as “Bush 44”.
No, no, no.
It’s all Bush’s fault, all the time.
Tack on the pork the Dems put on everything from 2006 on (think senior drug prescriptions) then see how bad Bush made things.
