Bush’s deficit spending bad? Think again.
Yeah I’m on a financial roll. This is interesting though. Karl Rove in the WSJ:
Mr. Obama cannot dismiss critics by pointing to President George W. Bush’s decision to run $2.9 trillion in deficits while fighting two wars and dealing with 9/11 and Katrina. Mr. Obama will surpass Mr. Bush’s eight-year total in his first 20 months and 11 days in office, adding $3.2 trillion to the national debt. If America “cannot and will not sustain” deficits like Mr. Bush’s, as Mr. Obama said during the campaign, how can Mr. Obama sustain the geometrically larger ones he’s flogging?

Bush started that unjust war. And did such a fine job with Katrina(laughing inside).
I’d like to hear your argument on why this war was unjust. Otherwise you’re just making empty assertions. Besides, the topic is about deficit spending, and how the Obama administration will far surpass the deficit that Bush created. The topic is not about bashing Bush or Obama.
