People believe so much of what politicians say and yet they rate them around 10% in the polls. Then again maybe it's just the people that only watch Fox News and nothing else. I just read a letter this morning in the Daytona Beach News Journal saying President Obama is the biggest-spending president of all time.

The truth is he's not and I will quote Forbes magazine (which by the way is owned by a Republican).
“Who Is The Smallest Government Spender Since Eisenhower? Would You Believe It's Barack Obama?” You can check for yourself http://www.forbes.com/sites/rickungar/2012/05/24/who-is-the-smallest-government-spender-since-eisenhower-would-you-believe-its-barack-obama/
The reason it's not President Obama's fault is the first year of any incoming president's term is saddled—for better or for worse—with the budget set by the president who immediately precedes the new occupant of the White House. This has been true throughout history.

So don't blame President Obama, because according to this Republican-owned magazine he is tight when it comes to spending money.
