Nobody forgets it and nobody thinks deficits were good. But now we're headed toward our first $2 trillion dollar deficit. And deficits continuing that are ALL projected to be larger than any of Bush's or any run before under any President.

The harsh reality is that 95% of our debt was acquired during Republican presidencies.

Obama plans to change that in one term. So you'd better milk that quick cause it won't be accurate long. BTW 95% seems far too high. Clinton was President 8 yrs and we only got into surpluses in his last year or two. So the % will be lower than 95%, though it will be above 50% I expect.

The reality is that if Obama was a GOP President, you'd all be supporting him with all your hearts.

Baloney.

Grow up and learn to love your country not your party.

Good advice. Take it.
