The Federal Deficit & Presidents

Hmm, I detect a pattern here:


The deficit tends to shrink (expand) with a Democrat (Republican) in the White House.

Is it any wonder Republicans complain about the deficit when a Democrat is president? Their guy eventually exits, no doubt leaving a huge deficit, and it's now safe for Republicans to complain about said deficit. Of course, such a budget imbalance is never a problem when their guy is president, and recall Dick Cheney once uttered, "deficits don't matter." True dat, they only matter when a Democrat is running things.
