Bush was pretty shitty, to be sure, but he's small potatoes next to Obama, who will double the national debt according to his own spending plans. Also, you know... Bush isn't the president anymore. |
First few years for Obama, and I brought up Bush as a baseline. You do know what the federal deficit what when the last administration left office right? You also know that Obama happened to add the military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan to the deficit, unlike the last administration. It is important to be accurate with the info:

What you have is individuals out of power complaining about deficits, and those who are in power saying there is a crisis. We had a Bush crisis, and now there is an Obama one, regarding the deficit.
