the debt ceiling was raised SEVEN TIMES during the bu$h* administration
just so we know when the whining starts...
Bush Administration Adds $4 Trillion To National Debt
But the government is taking no chances. Buried deep in the hundred pages of bailout legislation is a provision that would raise the statutory ceiling on the national debt to $11.315 trillion. It'll be the 7th time the debt limit has been raised during this administration. In fact it was just two months ago, on July 30, that President Bush signed the Housing and Economic Recovery Act, which contained a provision raising the debt ceiling to $10.615 trillion.

And all the DUmmies howled and screamed.
Most conservatives even expressed how unhappy they were about that.
Now all of a sudden raising the debt ceiling is the only thing that will save the country. :mental:

Eight years of spending compared to two. Obama makes Bush look like a miserly skinflint.

That's because liberalism is a mental disorder.
