DUH
Every president after Carter has had record deficits. Obama is no different, except for the economic collapse he had to deal with.
Cutting taxes = increasing deficit spending.
Again, DUH
"Obama is no different"
Can't you read?
"National debt up $6 trillion since Obama took office"
Less than two months into President Obama's second term, new numbers show the national debt increased by more than $6 trillion since he took office.
It's the largest increase to date under any U.S. president. During the eight-year presidency of George W. Bush, the debt soared by $4.9 trillion."
On January 20, 2009, the day Mr. Obama took office, the debt stood at $10.626 trillion. The latest posting reflects an increase of over $6 trillion."

But then, you are an economic idiot.
1. When any pres takes office, it is a good while before he can have any effect on an economic dowturn.
2. The prior admin gave us the great republican depression of 2008.
3. Job losses were still at record levels.
4. Tax receipts went down, way down. And, my poor economically challenged con tool, deficits are a result of both expenditures AND receipts.
5. W did not enter an economy that was tanking. Instead, he tanked a good economy that he inherited.
6. Funny that you never talk about real numbers. Cons never adjust for inflation when it is in their favor.
Now, I know as a con tool, you can never admit it, but no pres has yet equaled the feat of your great hero, RR. He Tripled the national debt.
So, whatever, dipshit. Your drivel is drivel because you can not provide balanced arguments for economic issues. What was needed was major stimulus spending. Not a beat up bill made up largely of tax cuts. But you still can not respond to when it was that any high unemployment economy has been helped by tax cuts. Because, you are, a con tool posting conservative dogma.
