Barack Obama says that Congress needs to pass “a budget that reflects our need to invest in our young people.” He then chastised Republicans for their inability to properly budget. “I know the budgets aren’t the most interesting topic for a Friday afternoon, even in a school where young people like math. And, by the way, I just sat in on a lesson called Real World Math, which got me thinking whether it’s too late to send Congress here, for a remedial course.” Here’s a remedial reminder for Mr. Obama: The federal deficit jumped from $10.6 trillion when BO’s tenure began in 2009 to more than $17 trillion following the debt “deal” – more than 60%. Compare that to Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton who increased the federal debt by 38% and 32% respectively during the same time periods in office. The buck stops … somewhere other than BO’s desk.
