Spin master Republicans. Always making the president look bad. Look how they are still making excuses for the village idiot. We didn't have a 9/11 under Obama......
But we still have wars because the DEM held congress voted for them.....
The mind of lefties is amazing....not really....but keep thinking you do....
Clintons surplus was a sham. He borrowed money from social security to pay down public debt. I thought everyone knew this by now, but maybe those partisan blinders are thick.
Every Congress inherits the cumulative debt and adds to it.
Obama inherited $10 Trillion cumulative debt from Bush and Congress added to it.
Congress controls the purse strings.
And for the first four years the Democrats controlled Congress and it could credibly be argued that they still control it now. President Bush spent way too much money but this President has taken spending to unbelievable levels.

The Clinton administration "played with the books" to shuffle around money that created that 'surplus'.
More great news about a benefit to this country from President Obama's presidency.
Remember, Republican Bush was given a SURPLUS by Democrat Clinton and turned it into a RECORD DEFICIT. Had our great President Obama not been obstructed by Republicans in Congress, we likely would be enjoying another surplus.
To be fair, the surplus wouldn't have been permanent no matter who the President was. For some reason, people always forget about the Dot Com Bubble Burst.

Actually, there was NEVER a surplus under Clinton.. only the public budgets had a surplus, but that's because they borrowed from intragovernmental departments, which needed to be paid back.
I don't expect you to actually understand after all you started the stupid thread..
