The debt when George W. Bush took office was $5.727 Trillion when he left it was $10.627. The debt/GDP increased by 27.1% in eight years of office (It was 83.4% when he left office).
.
Obama claims that his spending is reasonable better than Reagan. He proposed 3.7 Trillion with a deficit of 1.4 Trillion for 2011. Currently based on usdebtclock org, the debt/GDP is 97.2%. Obama in two years of office increased the debt/GDP by 13.8%.

People need to stop criticizing President Obama. He has single-handedly saved 17 million jobs since he's been in office. That's a fact. He is our savior. You didn't see Bush saving any jobs did you? No. Because Obama so loved the United States, that's why he is the greatest man who ever lived. So you shut up!
LOL mushroom, Google "CRA" (community reinvestment act) he and his cronies "CAUSED" this fucking mess. You'll find he was the second highest recipient of funds awarded to a politician to look the other way while we were getting FUCKED by this POS!!
"Saved 17 million jobs since he's been in office" LMAO that's fucking rich!!! He is the poster boy for ignorant corrupt illegal immigrant, Muslim politicians. Hanging is too good for this puke
Obama sucks. He is a wimp. Ya, he is a wimp. I am sure he would have a better policy if he was not a wimp. You Americans went from voting evil idiots into office, to voting for wimps. Obama needs to stand up to his own party. He is so disgusting to see now on the TV as all he does is listen to Pelosi. Any democrats here, actually think this guy approves mostly of his own bill, or instead he is being bullied (as he is a pussy)?
It isn't a "recovery" package moron, it is called a "let me pay back my losers like ACORN, Planned Parenthood and all the others". What a moron Obama is!
And who ran the congress the last two years, when coincidentally the economy tanked under their non-leadership?
Who was in charge of the commitees to oversee the financial mess, and dropped the ball, only to blame others? Who's authorization is needed to spend the money for anything? What party has run the congress for the last two years? That's right?
You must not watch the news. The Republicans have been very vocal about how much they think the bill is a bad idea. But the Dems have an overwhelming majority in the House and the Senate.
republicans created our problems spent money on iraq around 3trillion, along with the american consumer we lived in deep deep credit that we could not pay off which led to banks suffering.
To be fair, it was the housing market that triggered everything. It was half stupidity, half predatory lending.
And don't blame just the Republicans. Blame both sides. Sure, the Republicans may have oversaw Iraq, but the Dems were the one who the economy went south under.
Sorry rose I "TOTALLY" disagree with your assumption that is was predatory lending or Republicans were in any way responsible, that is a democratic "LIE". It was not, it was Government regulations introduced in the CRA bill started by the peanut framer and enforced by Clinton that legally "FORCED" lenders under threats of racist lawsuits to make bad loans. Blaming republicans for this is a big FAT ASS LIE so democrats can redirect responsibility on someone else!
Demon-crats are the "ONLY" responsible party for this damn mess, you can not blame republicans, president Bush or otherwise, for not having enough power or influence over the American people to stop people like Obama, Pelosi and Reed or the peanut farmer. It's time this country starts blaming the right people. Impeachment of Obama would be a good place to start!!!!!!!!!!!!
They aren't the only reason that the economy's shit, but they are a large part of it. I hate the dems as much as most thinkers, but even I acknowledge that they're not the only responsible party.
After further research, it was a perfect storm of factors that led to the economy being this way. The predatory lending, misuse of credit, outsourcing of jobs, importing more than we export, bad investing, buying from China, and even though I support both of them, fighting wars on two fronts.
