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.

So you’re calling Obama’s first year “Bush’s” last year? In a way that’s true, but Obama was responsible for shepherding through the spending increases with the $1 trillion stimulus bill. As I say, not all his fault, but a bit disingenuous to claim none of it was Obama’s call.
