Obama, "When President Bush came into office, we had a budget surplus and the national debt was a little over $5 trillion. It has doubled over the last eight years. And we are now looking at a deficit of well over half a trillion dollars.
So one of the things that I think we have to recognize is pursuing the same kinds of policies that we pursued over the last eight years is not going to bring down the deficit. And, frankly, Senator McCain voted for four out of five of President Bush's budgets
We've got to take this in a new direction, that's what I propose as president.
------------------------------
Prior to election, he was talking about lowering the deficit. After the election, he's pushing a massive spending bill. He's projected to run bigger deficits than Bush ever did for the next few years!
Can we get rid if this lying bastard now, before serious damage is done?
