    You make it sound like Obama was surprised by how things turned out or that he'd prefer not to have problems to deal with.
    Actually, we can probably blame the sainted FDR for making the first kick.

    He was an MVP, sure, but I wouldn't call him the first. It's been going on since day one, more or less, the pace has just picked up over the years.

    Speaking of not answering questions...

    McCain and Bush tried to fix Fannie and Freddy BEFORE the Democratically inspired housing crash that started this mess.

    You are old enough to remember the housing crash, right?
    Do you recall the housing crash?

    The Community Reinvestment Act that started it?

    Bush held off the recession for nearly 8 years.

    Obama, on the other hand, is milking it for all his "hope and change."

    Yep...YOUR guy...blowing it daily. :D

    In actual dollars, President Obama’s $4.4 trillion in deficit spending in just three years is 37 percent higher than the previous record of $3.2 trillion (held by President George W. Bush) in deficit spending for an entire presidency. It’s no small feat to demolish an 8-year record in just 3 years.

    Under Obama’s own projections, interest payments on the debt are on course to triple from 2010 (his first budgetary year) to 2018, climbing from $196 billion to $685 billion annually.
