It's HIS Fault: a Recap

With the understanding that, no matter what we do, say or forward, we will never ever change the mind 
of a committed ideologue, I hope you all will understand that that is not the intent of forwarding this on. 
We do so in the hope that it will help the 80% of math and fact challenged Americans to get a grip on 
reality, thus enabling them to get off the fence under their own power rather than be violently pushed 
off by the coming onslaught of lying left wing media losers.

So... let's examine exactly whose fault this is. B-b-b-But It's HIS Fault The Washington Post babbled again today about Obama inheriting a huge deficit from Bush. Amazingly enough, a lot of people swallow this BULL. So once more, a short civics lesson: Budgets do not come from the White House. They come from Congress and the party that  controlled Congress since January 2007 is the Democratic Party. Furthermore, the Democrats controlled the budget process for FY 2008 & FY 2009 as well  as FY 2010 & FY 2011. (FY = fiscal year) In that first year, they had to contend with George Bush, which caused them to compromise  on spending, when Bush somewhat belatedly got tough on spending increases. For FY 2009 though, Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid bypassed George Bush entirely, passing  continuing resolutions to keep government running until Barack Obama could take office.  At that time, they passed a massive omnibus spending bill to complete the FY 2009 budgets. And where was Barack Obama during this time?  He was a member of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills,  and he signed the omnibus bill as President to complete FY 2009. Let's remember  what the deficits looked like during that period:   If the Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the FY 2007 deficit, the last of the Republican  budgets. That deficit was the lowest in five years, and the fourth straight decline in deficit  spending. After that, Democrats in Congress took control of spending, and that includes  Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets.  If Obama inherited anything, he inherited it from himself. In a nutshell, what Obama is saying is "I inherited a deficit that I voted for and then I voted to expand that deficit four-fold since January 20th."  There is probably no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us tells someone else.  This is your chance to make a difference.
