Fundamental problem with that graph:

Fiscal Year 2009 was NOT President Bush. It was passed by Nancy Pelosi’s House and Harry Reid’s Senate on February 23, 2009 and signed into law by President Obama on March 13, 2009. President Bush had nothing to do with FY2009’s budget - yet your graph says it’s his.

Sorry, when you get basic facts wrong, then the rest is under suspicion as well.

My basic facts?

Ha. That’s funny. Or it would be if the world didn’t contain people who absolved Bush of his responsibility.

Bush’s FY09 continuing resolution lasted until April of 2009. Also TARP was his too. Does Obama get blamed for TARP too?

The graph is clear that congress may pass spending bills pertaining to the current fiscal year. No one blames the Obama stimulus on Bush. No one credits the Bush tax cuts to Clinton even though they started in FY01. FY09 clearly lies on the dividing line between Bush and Obama and I think most sane human beings would understand it.

Stating there is some problem with culpability shown by the graph should be beneath a FReeper.
