Since no one is saying that, let's dispense with the blanket statements. It's a bit more complicated than that. Using
this and
this data, I found:
Clinton with a democratic congress: $225B deficit
Clinton with a republican congress: $22B surplus
Bush with mixed congress: $11B deficit
Bush with republican congress: $339B deficit (republican bums thrown out)
Bush with democrat congress: $704B deficit
Obama with democrat congress:
$2.7 Trillion deficit (throw the bums in prison)
Do you see now that there are massive deficits, and then there are MASSIVE deficits?
