The 2012 deficit was 1.327 trillion
Bush =increased deficit 1.2 trillion
Obama =increased deficit 133 billion
Once again that is just shameless shilling, That is leaving everything in 2009 on Bush's scorecard when part of Obbama's spending was on the stimulus, also TARP was on the budget, and it was a one time payment, so Obama and the democratic congress chose to hold the spending bills at those levels....
Also the Bush tax cuts expired in 2010, there is a new form of Tax cuts which then passed called the Obama tax cuts, which add 280 billion to the deficit which Obama is now responsible for.
As well as a Brand new entitlement program which will soon be costing us 200 billion per year, so Obama has added atleast 6-700 billion dollars to the deficit.
And Bush added roughly the same thing.

No, leaving everything on Bushs scorecard would be blaming Bush for 1.4 trillion
The politifact piece has already been debunked by other fact checkers that are not partisan like politifact im to lazy to go digging cause im going to bed.....
The number most people come up with is Bush was responsible for the Deficit up to about 900 billion to 1 trillion. so that means that at 1.3 trillion 300 billion is currently on Obama.
Also Obama and a democratic congress and senate chose to Renew the Bush tax cuts which cost 280 billion/year, so now that is Obama's, that brings obama's tab to 580 billion per year added to the deficit.
Throw on Obamacare which will soon be coming on board at a couple hundred billion per year and Obama will easily have his bill at 600-700 billion dollars per year that he is responsible for on the deficit.
Trying to pitch obama as though he is some sort of fiscal hawk is absolutely delusional.

Romney wanted to stay in Iraq,wants to stay in Afghanistan longer,wants to increase defense spending (Bush already increased it from 300 billion to 700 billion),and wants to make the Bush tax cuts permanent (Obama only extended them 1 or 2 years,Bush passed them for 10 years)
Ryan voted for Bushs 10 year tax cuts,tax cut extension,and wants to make them permanent.Ryan also voted for Iraq and Bushs medicare expansion
Trying to pitch Romney/Ryan as though they are some sort of fiscal hawks is absolutely delusional.
Obama only extended them 1 or 2 years,compared to Bushs 10 years and Romney /Ryan who wants to make them permanent
You want them permanent but then attack Obama for the 280 billion a year they cost
No Luke .Unlike Ryan Obama made a living in the private sector as an attorney and college professor
