Deficit truth

By GottaLaff

The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities released a report today, and Steve Benen reports in. He ends with this:

It's important for the public to realize who's responsible, in large part because it's important for the public to weigh policymakers' credibility. If GOP lawmakers embraced policies that are almost entirely responsible for the deficit those same lawmakers are now complaining about, it's a relevant detail. [...]

President Obama will deserve plenty of blame over the course of his presidency, but holding him responsible for getting us into this budgetary mess doesn't make sense.

No please go read the details. It's a welcome post that will get no attention on the Tee Vee Machine.
