it was also true for Dumbya.

In Obama's defense, it's partly from the financial mess that happened under Dumbya. It's partly from the fact that there's debt in the first place too.

Also in Obama's defense, the President isn't ultimately responsible. The national purse strings are Congressional responsibility!

If debt is truly a concern for Republicans, then RAISE TAXES on the wealthy! DUH!!! We all know that they'd rather cut spending on social programs that will lead to many deaths, though. Meanwhile, they also support greater military spending to help kill more people around the globe!
