"AMERICA DESERVES BETTER" WE SURE DO!
“AMERICA DESERVES BETTER”
2006. Barack Obama is
a U.S. Senator. When it became necessary
to raise the debt ceiling due to Bush’s wild spending, this is what Senator
Obama said, and I quote:
“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s
debt limit is a sign of leadership failure.
It is a sign that the U. S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing
financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s
reckless fiscal policies…Increasing America’s deb t weakens us domestically and
internationally. Leadership means that “the
buck stops here.” Instead, Washington is
shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and
grandchildren. America has a deb t
problem and a failure of leadership.
Americans deserve better.”
Well, he’s right that we deserve better.
But did you hear him today? He sure had a change of heart. Obama
rejected any negotiations with Republicans over raising the borrowing limit of
the U.S., also known as the “Debt Ceiling.”
He also said the “Debt Limit has nothing to do with new spending.”
CBS News’ Major Garret nailed Obama on the subject today by
asking him about his four negative “Debt Ceiling” votes when he was a Senator. In usual fashion Obama talked all around the
subject, never addressing why he has conveniently changed his mind now that he
has his hands on the checkbook. His main response was “We’re not a deadbeat
nation.” Oh, no?
What do you call it when we are borrowing money just to pay
the interest on our debt with no end in sight but we’re not willing to change
any of our spending habits? What do you
call it when our debt is projected to rise a million dollars each year for the
next 10 years thanks to Obama’s spending?
I call that Obamanomics.
Don’t expect anything different from Obama and Friends
because they don’t get it. According to John
Boehner, in no uncertain terms, President Obama told the Speaker, "We
don't have a spending problem." And Boehner went further to say that our unqualified
Commander in Chief thinks that almost all of our economic woes are the result
of, "a healthcare problem."
Every day President Obama opens his uneducated mouth we
learn about a statement that is more incredulous than the previous day. But this
newest statement is astonishing. There
are no words for such irrationality, foolishness and complete and absolute total lack
of understanding of the financial plight of our nation. It is inconceivable to think that the man who
runs the largest economy in the world, the man who was elected to a second term
to arguably the most important job in the world, has so little understanding of
the workings of the economic engine that runs America.
How, with any sane reasoning, can the President of The
United States think that a $16 trillion debt (going to be $20 trillion by the
time he’s done) did not come about by spending too much money? How can Barack
Hussein Obama, knowing that every entitlement program we have is overburdened
by debt, not think we have a spending problem?
He sure played it perfectly to his Useful Idiots. Can’t get a handle on the amount of
debt? Here it is in a nutshell.
1 million seconds approx.:
11 days
1 billion seconds approx.. 3 years
1 trillion seconds approx..32,000 years
We are at $16 trillion making a beeline for $20
trillion. Figure It Out.
Wake up Americans: Obama is committed to sinking us.
Our Ancestor Said, “Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death!” I’ll take Liberty, thank you!

SCARES THE HECK OUT OF ME!
CLICK HERE TO GET THE LOW DOWN ON THE U.S. DEBT.
And then ask yourself if the so-called Debt Ceiling Deal just passed yesterday and today by the Washington Wackos is really a good deal. Keep in mind that the "Deal" gives Obama the Spender an additional 2.5 trillion to spend up to 2013 (oh, yes, past the 2012 election - how stupid can the Republicans be?) And in turn Obama has to decrease his "requested" spending by 2.5 trillion. Oh, no, he doesn't have to reduce CURRENT spending by 2.5 trillion to actually DECREASE our debt. He only has to decrease his REQUESTED spending by 2.5 trillion. When all is said and done we will still spend trillions more, putting us in debt trillions more, just 2.5 trillion less than His Highness really wants to spend. How can approving a spending increase of 2.5 trillion and at the same time requesting a spending decrease of 2.5 trillion not be a wash? And don't start yowling at me about Bush did this and Bush did that and Obama isn't responsible for the debt. The fact is Obama has increased the national debt approximately 30% in 2 1/2 years, and with the approval of Congress, The Beat Goes On. The Debt Deal?? It's Absolute Insanity!

NATIONAL DEBT APOCALYPSE
Guess What??
All of the Geithner/Obama Armageddon predictions about raising the national debt level?
Here are some sobering facts for you.
Under Clinton the national debt went up 547 million dollars per day.
Under Bush the national debt went up 1.6 billion dollars per day.
Under Obama the national debt has gone up 4.1 billion dollars per day.
Obama can make all the excuses he wants, but the facts don't lie.
The deficit is 10 times bigger than when Obama took office. And now he wants Congress to raise the debt level so he can waste more, spend more, on pet pork projects that do nothing to create jobs, but continue to grease the palms of his cronies. And he is DEMANDING an increase in taxes instead of SLASHING his spending habits. Give The Pretender President more, and he will spend more. Sure as heck.
Sure hope the Conservatives we elected in 2010 stand firm until we can send them back up troops in 2012.
