lol, this is the most rediculous post ever.
G.W. Bush raised the debt ceiling 7 times during his mandate and if we look at other presidents you will see more of the same (i.e. debt ceiling being raised). Now I think the US needs to start taking its debt seriously, but to blame the debt on any one President is just stupid. This chrisis is nothing more then politics and anyone that can't see that is the one that needs to wake up.

It's a year later and the debt Obama has driven up gets worse by the day. I suppose it is still Bush's fault?
