73% of Americans Believe that Wasteful Governemnt Spending to Blame for Federal deficit

Once again Barack Obama is on the wrong side of the issue against the belief of the American people.

According to a recent Gallup poll, an overwhelming majority of the American people think that wasteful government spending is responsible for the out of control federal deficit. 73% of Americans believe that government spending too much on programs, that includes 91% of Republicans, 73% of independents and 56% of Democrats.

However, Obama thinks what makes America great is government spending and by not spending we are harming future generations. Yet another issue that we be up for debate in the 2012 Presidential election. As the Gateway Pundit reminds us, Obama has tripled the US federal deficit since he took office.
