President Barack Obama's chief political strategist on Friday slammed his Bush administration counterpart Karl Rove for allegedly making up "his own facts" about Democrats.
In an op-ed published in the Washington Post, David Axelrod accused Rove of hypocrisy and "shamelessness" for insinuating Sunday in a Post expose that Congressional Democrats "will run up more debt by October than Bush did in eight years."
"[G]iven the shape in which the last administration left this country, I'm not sure I would solicit his advice," Axelrod wrote.
Axelrod slammed the "spending spree" of Rove's former boss President George W. Bush, noting that he turned a "$236 billion budget surplus" into a "$1.3 trillion deficit" by the time he left office.
"During eight years in office, the Bush administration passed two major tax cuts skewed to the wealthiest Americans, enacted a costly Medicare prescription-drug benefit and waged two wars, without paying for any of it," he said.
