>Obama had all the power in the world to cut back on the proposed spending increases.

How so?

>Instead, he not only took ownership of it, he added to the increases.

The deficit has now been actually shrinking since 2009.

>Either way, this is Obama's mess, and he's only making it worse.

No, it's Bush's mess, and Obama isn't doing a great job cleaning it up. Saying it's Obama's mess is revising history incorrectly.

President Bush never approved the 2009 budget, nor did he sign it. It was all President Obama who signed the 2009 budget into law.
