RADIO GASBAG REACTIONS

I've heard Fats Limbaugh, Sean "The Baby Jesus" Hannity and Glenda Beck all claim that Mitten$ absolutely crushed Pres. Obama.  Now, in their worldlette, that's true because Mitten$ told the same kind of lies they do.  Here's just one example:

Fact Check: Doubling the Deficit
Jackie Calmes

Mr. Romney says Mr. Obama doubled the deficit. That is not true. When Mr. Obama took office in January 2009, the Congressional Budget Office had already projected that the deficit for fiscal year 2009, which ended Sept. 30 of that year, would be $1.2 trillion. (It ended up as $1.4 trillion.) For fiscal year 2012, which ended last week, the deficit is expected to be $1.1 trillion — just under the level in the year he was inaugurated. Measured as a share of the economy, as economists prefer, the deficit has declined more significantly — from 10.1 percent of the economy’s total output in 2009 to 7.3 percent for 2012.
