Steve, you're missing the bigger picture here. I'm not a fan of how this country spends its money, but you have to understand that Obama alone is not responsible for budgets and deficits, right? You also have to understand that the rates of spending are what's important too. He hasn't increased the rate of spending by much. His level of increase spending is actually lower than most. He has added 1.5 trillion year over year. Not 1, then 2, then 3. His rate of spending was/is flat, but other presidents' increased. Do you understand why that's such a big deal? We are in a huge hole that is going to take years and cooperation between parties to dig ourselves out of.
The precedent for unwise spending was already happening. You are just as bad as the other political side if you try to pin blame solely on the POTUS. The world's just a little more complicated than that. I hate the political climate in this country. Both sides use out of context data and facts to try and influence voters.
