John Boehner says Obama engaged in a spending binge that rang up a $16-trillion debt
If you include all growth in the national debt under the Obama administration, it’s roughly $5.4 trillion, not $16 trillion. The administration inherited a national debt of more than $10 trillion when it came into office. But Boehner’s claim saddles the administration with responsibility for all of the $16 trillion. Statement is False http://www.politifact.com/ohio/statements/2012/sep/19/john-boehner/john-...
