Every year in office he posted a deficit, finally leaving one of $1.2 trillion just before Obama took office.

What an ignorant comment, without basis. You do remember that Democrats controlled congress for Bush's last two years, right? And you do know that the regulations that caused this mess was also Clinton's mess, right? And you do know that Bush attempted to have Fanny/Freddy audited several times but was blocked by Barney Frank, right? So, Clinton is equally responsible for the recession as Bush, and Obama is such an amateur that he has caused this recession to last longer than any other recession or depression recovery in history. So, all hail the Obummer! King of czars.
By the way, are you REALLY going to suggest that a paper "budget surplus" of an outgoing president is valid? Bush had NO UNEMPLOYMENT until the Dems took over control of congress. He also had Billion dollar budget deficits compared to Obama's TRILLION dollar deficits. Obama will have doubled the deficit in his time in office. More than all the past presidents combined. So, you probably should stop blaming Bush now for Obama's pathetic failure.
