    Poli Sci 101.

    The first four years of a presidents administration, is seeing the effects of the previous administrations policy.

    It is only in term two does a president ever get to see the benefit/wrath of their policy.

    C'mon people - common knowledge.

    CD , this severe problem crosses party lines and every president & congressional Leader since 1963 share in the wrath

    however, the ballooning of the deficit is more glaring in recent memory

    A trillion isn't what it used to be. And since we became responsible for holding up banks, providing aide world wide, staying in pretend wars, and having to borrow to do all of it, it's bad.

    This isn't an Obama problem, this is a systemic issue.

    It doesn't help that he inherited a shit mess, and has no economic sense to fix it.

    We had two options, let the banks fail, or bail them out. I think some of those loans have been repayed, but it is what it is.

    You wont see Obamas accomplishments or failures well into his second term. Currently, we are still seeing the end of the Bush misery.

    And, that alone is why I blame Clinton for 9/11 more than Bush.
