“See, those are these blue years, was George Bush. And then right here was a Bush year, but this is when Speaker Pelosi was in charge of Congress. So this was in a way, if you give Bush credit for when Pelosi was in Congress, Congresswoman Pelosi, then this would be his worst year, which is about $460 billion worth of deficit. That's his worst year. The next year, 2009, was when President Obama and the Democrats ran everything. Take a look at this jump. My goodness, it's a three times worse deficit than the Republicans had run under Bush, and Bush was spending too much money. And I agree we were spending too much money. And then the next year, 2010, it's even worse.”
