If we didn't prop up the middle class spending ability after bush gutted it, we'd be a third world country right now. It takes money to revive a dying country.

Because Bush had two unfunded 'conflicts' and Medicare part D that he didn't put in the budget.. Obama put them in the budget thus raising the debt..

I think the question is why do Liberals not acknowledge the huge debt Obama has built up.. that is on him
When Mr. Obama became president in January 2009, the total federal debt stood at $10.6 trillion. This week, it hit $16.7 trillion — an increase of 57 percent. In the same time frame under President George W. Bush, total federal debt rose 38 percent. Under President Clinton, it rose 32 percent.

There was no one else to blame but Bush.

That's an easy one. Even the low information crowd that buys all of their propaganda would have a problem if the admitted that they have any responsibility for the debt.

The debts had occurred on Bush Jr.'s watch, bvut were not charged vuntil after that Cheeney weasel left office left office.

Bush caused the collapse.

Because liberals are like children. When you were a you child blamed everyone it was never your fault! When you were a child you acted as a child. When you were a adult you learned to tell the truth.
So does this say that that liberals are like children & do not now how to tell the truth?
As I read the answer here do you see a trend that liberals cannot answer the question that was asked? Does this mean that that they can not read the question & they are lairs?
I hate to ask this but does this mean they are stupid & liars?

"What difference does it make?" (as Hillary might say)
Finding the right person to blame solves nothing.
The official debt is unpayable. Our Mega-Trillions in future obligations/promises are unpayable. Never mind the "deficit", our shortfall is close to 5 Trillion Every year.
