"but not nearly so large as under Obama" Tim, you just wrote a WHOLE post telling me that Presidents DON'T create or control deficits, yet you keep talking about Obama when you talk about today's deficits. According to YOU, Obama shouldn't be BLAMED for today's deficits, it's that screwy congress of his... You can't have things BOTH ways. Either Presidents ARE responsible for deficits or they AREN'T.. Let's look at Carter. Carter had a democratic congress right? WHAT was the TOTAL deficit accumulated under Carter during his 4 years??? Didn't Carter's 4 years produce LESS total national debt than Reagan's first 2 years??
