The problem is that Obama did not maintain the budget that was enacted under Bush.

Here's the bush budget... revenue projected at 3.1B came in at 2.1B...that's a $1T deficit in my book left behind for his successor. Obama added 400B largely ARRA.

Bush left the presidency 4 months into the year yet you want to blame HIM for a revenue shortfall that occurred AFTER he left office.

Are you now suggesting that the downturn began with Obama? C'mon.

If Obama didn't want those deficits he should have cut spending. But no. IN fact, these fools haven't even passed a budget while he was in office.

In a severe recession? Great idea...I am sure a republican president would have done exactly that....wait, the prior republican president did the opposite...
