You wingnuts can attempt to blame Obama for FY2009, cato doesn't, but you wingmuts are being foolish because FY2009 spending was pretty much programed long before Obama took office. Bush's GREAT RECESSION and bank bailout just added to the FY2009 drain.

Barack Hussein was a US SENATOR during those budget negotiations. Show me the video where he stood in the well of the Senate and fought them.

Uh, I'm not sure you really want to know the answer to that question. Just go to sleep. It'll all be over soon enough.

Obama to ask for debt limit hike - Treasury official - Politics & Elections News



It was $9.5 Trillion when he came into office.

What a complete disaster this fraud is.

I seem to remember him talking about fiscal responsibility, cutting his trillion dollar first year deficit in half, but that doesn't seem likely.

Here is a great headline from Drudge;

DRUDGE REPORT 2012®

I NEED ANOTHER $1.2 TRILLION

sure thing, how about another 4 trillion instead. after all, when the country goes to hell in a handbag, and all the sheep are left fending for themselves instead of relying on uncle sugar, we can then secede with no problem at all, for the goverment will be non existent.

Ooh brother, here we go again, educating lefties..

Continuing resolutions followed by SIGNED BUDGETS during most of those years.. It wasnt until Democrats took over that they stopped passing budgets

Why do you continue to post half the truth? Your bloggers didnt give you the complete picture?
