Is anyone of the three honest? If you are answer the following question, "What did Obama do in his first 27 days of his presidency that he should be tagged with the 699 billion in national debt increase?" If I am playing with numbers, that should be a very easy question to answer.

While you are at it, take a look at the national debt at the end of the government's fiscal year.
Government - Historical Debt Outstanding - Annual 2000 - 2015

Every year the national debt under "W" increased over 500 billion dollars. Since when is 500 billion a small number?


Unlike you three, I do look at the events of the time that had a lot to do with the national debt increase, and not blame "W" as if was a free spending liberal. The wars, and the great recession had a lot to do with the increase of national debt under Obama, whether you like it or not.
