You are such a damn liar, so typical of the Right.
First of all Bush's first fiscal year was 2002 not 2003 on your chart, and including estimates for 2016 and 2017 does not make 6 years for Obama. So the lying scum use 7 years for Bush as 8 years and 8 years for Obama as 6 years.

Bush spent $20.83 trillion in 8 years and Obama spent $21.25 trillion in 6 less than $1 trillion more and not your lying $6.2 trillion, hardly your lying 400% more.

OK... let's use your figures OK???

First let's define a Fiscal Year... The Budget of the United States Government often begins as the President's proposal to the U.S. Congress which recommends funding levels for the next fiscal year, beginning October 1 and ending on September 30 of the year following."

This means that the budget of 2001 was submitted by Bill Clinton and was in force during most of George W. Bush's first year in office. The budget submitted by George W. Bush in his last year in office was the budget of 2009, which was in force through most of Barack Obama's first year in office.
That being the case then let's start with Bush's Budget at the end of 2002 OK???
So when you divide Obama's $6.220 Trillion OVERSPENDING by Bush's $3.546 trillion overspending Obama INCREASED OVERSPENDING by 175%!!!
With NONE of the gigantic cataclysmic events that occurred under Bush.
YOU tell me what would have happened under Obama if any ONE of these events occurred?
The recession and following dot.com bust COST $8 trillion and guess what? receipts dropped by over $70 billion in ONE year due to those losses there were
deductions against income.
What would Obama do with 3,000 lives lost, $1 trillion in losses due to worst hurricane seasons...
And of course 9/11! over 400,000 jobs lost. 18,000 business lost! And you don't think that had ANY affect on the economy???

Recession
Are you aware that a recession started under Clinton and became official 3/01 ended 11/01?
Because you don't seem to comprehend... RECESSIONS are like football length tankers... it takes miles to turn one...i.e. so does
a "RECESSION"... it doesn't just start the day NBER states... it is a slow degradation and it started under CLINTON!!!
Source: USATODAY.com - It's official: 2001 recession only lasted eight months

A Major $8 trillion market loss
Are you aware that the dot.com bust occurred and cost $5 trillion in losses?
Again Clinton laid claim BUT someone had to pay and it occurred during Bush's first year! $5 trillion in market losses MEAN lost tax revenue
PLUS JOBS!!!!
According to the Los Angeles Times, when the dot-com bubble burst, it wiped out $8 trillion dollars in market value for tech companies. More than half of the Internet companies created since 1995 were gone by 2004 - and hundreds of thousands of skilled technology workers were out of jobs.

Year 2001: September 11 Terrorist Attacks
The 9/11 terrorist attacks were the events that helped shape other financial events of the decade. After that terrible day in September 2001, our economic climate was never to be the same again. It was only the third time in history that the New York Stock Exchange was shut down for a period of time. In this case, it was closed from September 10 - 17. Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone. Airlines didn't fly for 3 days!
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.

Anthrax Attacks...
The 2001 anthrax attacks in the United States, also known as Amerithrax from its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) case name, occurred over the course of several weeks beginning on Tuesday, September 18, 2001, one week after the September 11 attacks. Letters containing anthrax spores were mailed to several news media offices and two DemocraticU.S. Senators, killing five people and infecting 17 others.

$1 trillion in losses due to the WORST Hurricane SEASONS in history.
The worst, Katrina made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 3 in 2005. It took 1,836 lives and caused $81.2 billion in damages. It quickly became the biggest natural disaster in U.S. history, almost destroying New Orleans due to severe flooding.

The budget submitted by George W. Bush in his last year in office was the budget of 2009, which was in force through most of Barack Obama's first year in office.

Congress held up most of Bush's last budget, because they wanted to spend more when Obama got in there.

Just use the debt to the penny website and look from January 20th, 2001-January 20th 2009.
It's not exact, and it's off to the extent that TARP money was spent in 2008 and repaid in 2009 and 2010, mostly, which makes Bush spending look higher and Obama spending look lower.

So when you divide Obama's $6.220 Trillion OVERSPENDING by Bush's $3.546 trillion overspending Obama INCREASED OVERSPENDING by 175%!!!

Still have your head up your ass. Let's talk in terms you can understand.

President Bush's first tax cut was in 2001, and his second tax cut was in 2003.

In 2001's Bush tax cuts, which reflect in Clinton's 2001 fiscal numbers, we all also got a stimulus/tax rebate check starting in August 2001 of that year.

-Infrastructure has decreased to the lowest levels in decades
-Science has stayed the same
-R&d may have gone up slightly in the green energy field but otherwise hasn't gone up.
-Education??? Not really.

Certainly not 8-9 trillion dollars over the past 7 years.

A lot of it can be accounted for by the war, tax breaks for the super rich( 700 billion dollars in the last budget) and maybe a little more welfare. But, hell, lets just gut everything that helps our economy like the dumb republicans want to do.

If you understand math.
The spending that Obama has done was $6.220 trillion over the past 6 years and estimated for the next 2 years.
Bush overspending was $3.546 trillion. How much of an increase is $6.220 trillion from $3.546 trillion?
Here let me show you the simple math. $6.220/$3.546 equals 180% increase from Bush's $3.5 trillion overspending! GET IT???

"Over the past six years, the President and his Administration have not only warned of the systemic consequences of failure to reform GSEs but also put forward thoughtful plans to reduce the risk that either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac would encounter such difficulties.
President Bush publicly called for GSE reform at least 17 times in 2008 alone before Congress acted.

Unfortunately, these warnings went unheeded and even ridiculed :
, as the President's repeated attempts to reform the supervision of these entities were thwarted by the legislative maneuvering of those who emphatically denied there were problems.
Many prominent Democrats, including House Finance Chairman Barney Frank, opposed any legislation correcting the risks posed by GSEs.
*

* House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D-MA) criticized
the President's warning saying:
"these two entities - Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac - are not facing any kind of financial crisis .
The more people exaggerate these problems,
the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing."...
(Stephen Labaton, "New Agency Proposed To Oversee Freddie Mac And Fannie Mae," New York Times, 9/11/03)

* Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Chairman Christopher Dodd also ignored the President's warnings and
called on him to "immediately reconsider his ill-advised" position. Eric Dash, "Fannie Mae's Offer To Help Ease Credit Squeeze

The budget submitted by George W. Bush in his last year in office was the budget of 2009, which was in force through most of Barack Obama's first year in office.

Congress held up most of Bush's last budget, because they wanted to spend more when Obama got in there.

Just use the debt to the penny website and look from January 20th, 2001-January 20th 2009.
It's not exact, and it's off to the extent that TARP money was spent in 2008 and repaid in 2009 and 2010, mostly, which makes Bush spending look higher and Obama spending look lower.

So when you divide Obama's $6.220 Trillion OVERSPENDING by Bush's $3.546 trillion overspending Obama INCREASED OVERSPENDING by 175%!!!

Still have your head up your ass. Let's talk in terms you can understand.

Healthmyths' Boss (HMB) calls Healthmyths (HM) into his office.
(HMB) "HM, you're doing a great job and the company had a great year, we'd like to give you a raise"

(HM) "Thanks sir, you're swell! How much is my raise?"

(HMB) "Well, the average raise this year will be 5%"

(HM)"Cool!"

(HMB)"But you're a really good employee, so we're increasing your salary from $8.00/hour, to $8.80/hour"

(HM)"Wow! What percentage increase is that, sir?"

(HMB)"Here's a calculator, HM, why don't you tell me?"

(HM)"Well, sir, $8.80 divided by $8.00 is 1.10, you gave me a 110% raise!!!!!"

Durr.

AGAIN... let's try to understand.
If you understand math.
The spending that Obama has done was $6.220 trillion over the past 6 years and estimated for the next 2 years.
Bush overspending was $3.546 trillion. How much of an increase is $6.220 trillion from $3.546 trillion?
Here let me show you the simple math. $6.220/$3.546 equals 180% increase from Bush's $3.5 trillion overspending! GET IT???
Here READ the table from the White House!

$6.220/$3.546 equals 180% increase from Bush's $3.5 trillion

Wrong. If Obama doubled the Bush spending of $3.5 trillion, he'd spend $7 trillion.
For an increase of 100%.
Anything less than $7 trillion is less than 100%.
3.5 to 6.3 would be an 80% increase.

If you understand math.
