re: #341 BryanS

The link does not support your claim that “The deficit went down in Obama’s first year.”

Obama’s first year was a record deficit—the next your would have also been that if not for his first year.

Bush’s last budgetary year had a deficit of 1.4trillion.

Obama’s first had a deficit of 1.2trillion (despite all the gloom over his spending programmes).

2011’s deficit will be needlessly revised upwards because of he obstructionism over the upperclass tax rates and other revenue enhancing meausres the Democrats wanted to enact.
