The federal debt under Obama has increased to over $9 trillion for the first time. Total federal debt is now over $19.6 trillion. Like George W. Bush, Obama has almost doubled the federal debt. But whose fault is it? I blame the Republicans in Congress. They authorize all federal spending. Republicans have controlled the House for almost the last six years. They have had absolute control of the Congress for almost the last two years. Cursed be the Republicans in Congress—you know, the ones who talk about believing in the Constitution, fiscal conservatism, and limited government.
