>> the federal government still accumulated a $755 billion deficit in the first eleven months of fiscal 2013.

So, we're probably on track for $820-840 Billion for the year. Without the sequester (thank God we had it) it would have run 900B or more. That's pretty damned bad considering this was the year the Obama administration was such a braggart about. Still 50% higher than Bush's WORST deficit.

Unemployment: Still where it was when he took office

Growth: Anemic

Deficit: Out of control

Sorry, I'm not seeing where this administration has helped one damned thing when it comes to the economy.
