Obama has decided to continue blaming Bush for our economic woes, but the facts just don't support his lies

Liberals Try to Blame GOP for Democrat Wild Spending



As if anyone is surprised, (not likely), the liberal Democrats continue to roll out the Prevaricatin' Machine to blame the Republicans for the excessive spending that they, the Democrats, have done since 2007. I'm sure most everybody with any talent in reading or listening has heard the usurping parasite in OUR White House continue to blame the Democrat's spending on George W. Bush. Obama is actually going to stress Bush's fault for just about every thing that is wrong with our country as his reelection strategy.
And, folks, there's a whole lot of wrong going on in our old republic; the great bulk of which began along about the year 2007 and became exacerbated following the presidential election in November of 2008 when an illegitimate contender named Barack Hussein Obama got elected with the illegal assistance of a totally liberal Democrat Congress, House and Senate which certified his illegal credentials to hold the Office of the President. This illegal usurper has sunk this country into the deepest debts of its entire 236-year history and all he has to say for it is, "It's all Bush's fault." To prove what a liar Obama is, there is this summary of annual deficits since the fiscal year (FY) 2003 when the hostilities began in the Middle East. *The public debt increased by over $500 billion starting that year and continued at that pace until FY2008 the second year of total liberal Democrat control when it increased to $1 trillion. Then in FY2009, Obama's first year as President, and the third year of total liberal Democrat control of Congress it increased to $1.9 trillion and in FY2010 it was $1.7 trillion.

So the deficits increased to over $500 billion a year during the Middle East war years beginning in FY2003 up until FY 2008 the second year of libDem control of Congress when it increased to double that number, or $1 trillion. The deficits have risen much more since FY 2007 so that the current estimated total debt is $15.6 trillion. *Financial data supplied by Wikipedia online. In an online article published by ConservativeByte.com on May 3, 2012 titled, "You Can't Blame the GOP House for the Democrat's Massive Spending Since 2007" which more or less confirms the basic information outlined above , "from 2007 to 2010 the Democrats had the House and the Senate, then they got the White House in 2009 and for two years they had the White House, the House, and the Senate. So the Democrats had total control of Congress for four years. Two of those years they also had the White House. Those two years are the first two years of Obama. That's when all of this deficit spending started. That's health care, the stimulus, when Obama's spending took root." This statement is found on Wikipedia, the liberal Democrat version of encyclopedia:
During the presidency of George W. Bush, the gross public debt increased from $5.7 trillion in January 2001 to $10.7 trillion by December 2008, due in part to the Bush tax cuts and increased military spending caused by the wars in the Middle East. Under President Barack Obama, the debt increased from $10.7 trillion in 2008 to $15.5 trillion by February 2012, caused mainly by decreased tax revenue and higher safety net costs due to the late-2000s recession and stimulus spending.
Here is a more truthful version of the farcical online Wikipedia offering: During the presidency of George W. Bush, the gross public debt increased from $5.7 trillion in January 2001 to $10.7 trillion by December 2008, or, a 53% increase in debt in EIGHT years, the last two years of which the liberal Democrats had complete control of both houses of Congress. This period, Jan. 2001 to Dec. 2008, covered 96 months, an increase average of about one half of one percent per month. Under Barack Obama's presidency the debt increased from $10.7 trillion in January 2009 to $15.5 trillion by February 2012, or a 69% increase in THREE years and one month, the last year and one month of which the liberal Democrats lost control of only the House while retaining the Senate and the presidency. This period covered 37 months, an increase average of about a full one and eight tenths percent per month, or nearly TRIPLE the increase under Bush in less than a third of the amount of time. Obama has decided to continue blaming Bush for our economic woes, but the facts just don't support his lies.
