Oh, now I get it, you're claiming that the current deficits are due to spending by the Obama administration?

Can you point out which spending? I'm under the impression that they're structural deficits created by Bush programs and exacerbated by the recession. But if you could point out some large Obama spending plan that passed, I'd change my mind.




There's ObamaCare for starters.

This week, we found out that they scored the subsidies based on single people with no kids while the coverage goes to dependents as well, so the subsidies will cost a lot more than predicted.

Every week or so, there's another $100B or so of spending in the bill that we find out about that wasn't scored.

Pelosi was right - we had to pass the bill to know what's in it.
