Hey DUmmies, you want to talk economic terrorism?
« 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.

 
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

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:
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.

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