Good Question….

The Carroll County Times asks:

Carter raised the debt to a paltry $1 trillion in 1980. Reagan raised it to $3 trillion. George H. Bush raised it to $4 trillion. Clinton raised it to $5.5. trillion. George W. Bush doubled it to $10 trillion, and Obama has raised it to $14 trillion.

Where was the outrage when Bush doubled the national debt during his administration, and whose policies have driven the country toward bankruptcy? (source)

UPDATE: A commenter noted this:

The number of Republican​ Senators who voted to raise the debt ceiling each time it came up for a vote since 1997:
1997: 55
2002: 31
2003: 50
2004: 50
2006: 51
2007: 26
2008: 34
2008: 33
Barack H. Obama was elected.
2009: 2
2009: 1
2010: 0

Hmm….
