Title: Hey DUmmies, you want to talk economic terrorism?
Post by: thundley4 on July 31, 2011, 02:35:08 PM

The debt limit was increased twice in 2008, from 9,815B to 10,615B on July 30th. Then an additional increase to 11,315B on Oct. 3rd for the new fiscal year.

On February 17th, 2009, just 4 short months later it was increased again to 12,104B.

The last Debt Ceiling increase was February 12th, 2010, less than 1 year later. That time it was a whopping 2,190B jump from 12,104B to 14,294B.
We're broke again.

Obama has blown 2 trillion dollars and for what?  Higher unemployment?  An electric car from government motors that no one wants?

It's still all Bush's fault though.
You see Bush screwed up so bad that even the sooper genius, Barrack Husein 0bama, MMMM MMMM MMMM, couldn't fix it.

Not only that, thundley . . . The Congress is responsible, according to the Constitution, to spend money.  Which party was in control of Congress--thus, the spending of the money--during all four of those debt limit increases?

I'll give you a hint. :tongue:

I hear he's going to change his middle name to "Megamind".  But that could just be a vicious rumor.  :)
