The irony that you posted this is hilarious
... idiot's ... simultaneously doubling our debt.
... stupid
Remember kids, a president who added more debt than the previous 43 presidents combined, was actually a fiscal budgetary steward
I'd love to live in the left's fantasy land
this explanation from the above Forbes article
Republicans use a sound bite that the federal debt doubled under Obama. In looking at the numbers that is close to being numerically correct but falls short of being 100%. However when you take into account the Great Recession, making W. Bush’s temporary tax cuts permanent, increased Social Security and Medicare spending as more Baby Boomers retire and become 65 years old and the Afghanistan and Iraq wars he inherited the story is quite different.
...
Using percentages is a better way of analyzing data in a lot of cases as it compensates when the data set numbers are larger or smaller from each other. Federal debt falls into this category as it increases over time. The compounding impact of growth can make using absolute numbers meaningless.
I see the imaginary think tanks have returned.
