Mitt recently criticized Obama for doubling the debt. This is something that Reagan did twice, and Bush did two years into his first term so we could invade Iraq. Obama would not have had to do it if Bush had raised taxes to pay for Iraq. Instead Bush cut taxes and paid for the war by selling the US debt to China. The only previous time this had been done was when France helped fund the Revolutionary War.
