While the Republicans in the House and Senate have done little to nothing to help.

Every single current Republican presidential candidate threatens to undo that progress, and return us to the same disastrous financial policies that were the Bush presidency.

Oh, yeah: and how much deficit did Obama inherit his first day of office? And how much of that ongoing deficit is due to the ongoing costs of Bush's unpaid financial disasters? Most of it. Bush's legacy of financial disaster for this country doesn't go away the day he did. Obama not only is responsible for his own debt, but cleaning up Bush's mess.
