You DO realize that Congress actually spends the money? You fully realize this right? Blaming Obama (and I'm not a fan of him) for our debt is like blaming your kids when you spend yourself in debt.
Other than the obvious already spoken, do you remember the Republicans trying to cut spending? Remember the continuing resolution debate? The R's said they would not approve another CR. This resulted in the sequestor. The Democrats then attacked, with help from the media, and smeared the right because they wanted to "shut down the government". Remember Obama's make it hurt doctrine? Remember Obama ordering US Park employees to install barricades around monuments that do not cost any money to operate simply just to make sure that people knew it was the "bad republicans" who were causing this?
The Republicans caved due to pressure from the White House, the Left, the media, and the mouth breathers.
