<<<<<They're DIRECTLY responsible for the deficit.>>>>> I guess we'll just have to disagree. The big items for the budget are; Defense, SS, Medicare and the debt payments. Since democrats and republicans both saunter up to the feed bin to get their districts defense contracts, this one belongs to both but more so to republicans. SS and Medicare are the babies of democrats. Interest payments belong to both. Soooooooooooo, they're both to blame! Bush cut taxes and Obama did too! You're not being honest to blame one and not the other. Now you can blame Bush for the mess he created; blowing the bubble and unfunded wars, but except for a few democrats they were on the sidelines cheering the blowing of the housing bubble and went meekly along with the war efforts. The deficit belongs to both!
