We just did have a Republican running up this kind of debt and I don't remember anyone being too happy about it.
Obama's debt is pretty huge, but I think some of this can be justified due to economic circumstances and some can't.
Imagine if we elected McCain instead of Bush in 2000 over Gore. We probably wouldn't have had the prescription drug plan or the Iraq war. The budget would likely have been in much better shape and left America much better prepared to deal with the Global recession. Obama wouldn't have had a chance against Republican opposition.
