I'm not sure if you're purposefully lying, or just that ignorant. Remove the expansion parts of the law that made these people eligible for Medicaid, and they will not be eligible for Medicaid.

Wrong.
He inherited a $5.629 trillion debt.

incorrect view that Obama had a choice to never spend a dime in Iraq/Afghanistan
Link to that.

Given that he didn't, it's beyond foolish to claim that the spending for those wars is a blemish on his administration.
Link to that.

And an annual budget in surplus. He chose to add to the debt by enacting unpaid tax cuts and Medicare Part D (also not paid for).

So a debt. Glad we agree.

In FY 2001 OMB reported a budget surplus of $128B, with a projected 10-year surplus of $5.6T
When Bush left office, we had almost $10T in debt.
So yes, we agree - Bush gave us a lot of debt through policies he chose and did not have forced upon him.

I know, math has a liberal bias.

So, still a debt.
Meaningless. Clinton's policies were terrible for our economy and not sustainable.
Obama will leave office with nearly $20 trillion in debt.

He did significantly reduce the annual deficit. The problem here is you're conflating debt and deficit - because you're being intentionally misleading, or do you really not know the difference?

The OMB disagreed with you in 2001.

Much of it forced on him by Bush policies, which he had no way of preventing. It always circles back to our original discussion, where you refuse to admit that Obama had some debt foisted on him by Bush's policies.

Good for them. History agrees with me now.

Sure, and it had been compounded prior to then.

Wrong. Once again, collective stupidity.

It's amazing how quickly legislation can become the only thing that separates us from complete catastrophe. The absence of something that didn't exist just a few years ago now equals murder.
