When will the facts of history be admitted to by the those who wish to blame the present administration for the economic mess this country is in..?? It is not rocket science, truly not, and it doesn't take a PhD in economics to understand that dramatically cutting taxes and spending trillions of dollars on two wars = huge budget deficits. At the end of the Clinton administration there was a budget surplus that was squandered by the Bush administration. Those are the facts of history.

I wonder what bothers Sam the most? Obama's own numbers that absolutely dwarf the Bush deficits or that is has been analyzed by the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office?

Whom are we going to believe? The non-partisan CBO or something called "The Daily Beast"?

You gotta love left wing "facts" ;-)
