Will they also fully blame the present Congress, which is controlled by a Democratic Party majority?

Read the article again.

FTA:

The CBO says that, merely in the two years that Democrats have run Congress, federal expenditures are up $429 billion -- to $3.158 trillion.

Rather than sort through priorities, Congress is spending more on just about everything.

Meanwhile, remember that "pay as you go" spending promise that Speaker Nancy Pelosi made in 2006? We called it a ruse at the time, and the last two years have proved it.

The problem with the Federal debt gluttony is that it transcends both parties and has been going on for decades.

What happens when the trough is finally empty and our hosts (debt buyers and holders) are unwilling to refill it?
