House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi blamed former President George W. Bush and the Republicans on Friday for the more than $9 trillion that has been added to the national debt under President Obama's watch.
Pelosi argued that under Obama, the annual budget deficit, which contributes to the national debt, has been reduced dramatically, and said that without Obama's work, the national debt would be even higher. She also mostly blamed Bush for not paying for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
"When President Obama stood on the steps on the Capitol eight years from next week, the [budget] deficit was $1.4 trillion — one year deficit," she said. "It's reduced by 70 percent in his administration. Much of the increase in the national debt that has occurred from this time still springs from two unpaid-for wars, cost that we owe our veterans following that, giveaways that they gave to the pharmaceutical industry, and the high-end tax cuts that have carried forward without any job production. Absent the work of President Obama, this national debt would be even higher."
Pelosi noted the work done by former President Bill Clinton to balance the budget or leave a surplus.

This from a shrill harridan who thinks you have to pass a bill to find out what’s in it.
Hey, it’s just a Memory Lapse, botox does this.
OK, I’m trying to translate that....
What’s it say?

Haha.
Got it. Thanks.
(I first saw the Hillary version also.)
She is not connected to reality and is unfit for office.
Pelosi is basically a pinup girl for an auto parts supplier. Not a deep thinker. Maybe b.s. crazy.
However, if the media does not call her on her insane ideas, does it matter?
Fuzzy math. If Obama reduced the annual deficit by 70% and it was 1.4 trillion the first year he was President, how did he average more than one trillion more debt per year over his 8 years?

Senile.
These idiots. and Repubs better push back hard against this kind of crap revisionism. Obama 8 years total revenue including ending Bush tax cuts and other tax increases = $20 Trillion + Deficit spending adding $10 Trillion to debt = a total whopping $30 Trillion spent by his governmrnt, $30 Trillion and what did we get for spending $30 Trillion ? Even Bush’s bank bailout was paid back by the banks so that is not debt. Obama spent for 8 years like we were in emergency recession for the entire time and the people got nothing but a huge bill. Don’t let the rats get away with these lies.
So Nancy is telling us that Obama, the first President in history to never sign a budget bill is a penny pinching budget hawk?
Blaming Bush worked before, so it should work again.
She lies with impunity. No one (i.e. a republican) ever calls her out.
I would have never figured it out! Ha!

Wow. 2017 and we’re back to blaming Bush again.
I understand why God demanded the Israelites to kill their enemies off completely and spare no one.
We used to have insane asylums for idiots like Pelosi.
