The man damn near doubled it?
When Obama took office, it was at: 10,626,877,048,913.08
Apr 24, 2009 it was at: 11,185,300,192,981.20
Unless my math is, just way the hell wrong.. That isn't a trillion, it's less than 600 billion.
So I'm just confused by your statement...

He is confusing debt with the budget deficit which Obama plans to cut in half. Personally, I don't see why the right wingers wouldn't give him a shot and see what his plan accomplishes before they run their mouths. |
