Obama inherited a recession that none of us have seen since the great depression. He had to try something. Forclosures were at and all time high and unemployment was on the rise. Obam's deficit is tied directly to the recession. When he has to keep extending unemployment benifits as well as fund 2 wars that he did not start then I think he earns a pass. Remember with so many people out of work we are also taking in less tax revenue.Things have to get worse before they get better when you are in the mess Obama was left. Would McCain/Palin have done any better? Doubt it! The Republican failed policies have put us here!

When President Obama took over in January 2009, the federal debt was at $10.6 trillion, up from $5.7 trillion when George W. Bush took over in 2001. The graph is wrong with it's numbers in the 2008-2010 range. Is that intentional? Is the point to purposely mislead, misinform? What's with the graphic?

I have nothing against success and successful people but in this case it was the very policies which generated the debt that also redistributed the wealth. The debt from those years is an obligation that appears to rightfully belong to the wealthy. The one solution thathas been overlooked is a surtax on the wealthy specifically designed to pay the debt over a specified number of years. It’s the pragmatic thing to do because the wealthy are the ones with the money; it’s also the fair thing to do. Those who should NOT have to pay this rich man’s debt are my children or my grandchildren or the aged or the poor.
