In 2008, Obama made this promise :

What he meant was:
I’m going to run the debt up to $15 trillion in only three years and then try to fool you again in 2012. I like all the parties and golf and Michelle thinks our house is awesome.

I’m not sure Barack and Joe check these numbers that often; but whatever they are doing it isn’t helping.
“That’s what Democrats also promised in 2006, with Nancy Pelosi vowing that “the first thing” House Democrats would do if they took Congress was reimpose paygo rules that “Republicans had let lapse.” By 2008, Speaker Pelosi had let those rules lapse no fewer than 12 times, to make way for $400 billion in deficit spending. Mr. Obama repeated the paygo pledge during his 2008 campaign, and instead we have witnessed the greatest peacetime spending binge in U.S. history”
So now the loser in chief drags it out again………………..
