If we address the National Debt item only then we see: In the last two years we have accumulated national debt at a rate more than 27 times as fast as during the rest of our entire nation's history. Over 27 times as fast! and we are being told that the George W. Bush recession caused that? Here is an analogy, if you are driving in the right lane doing 65 MPH and a car rockets past you in the left lane 27 times faster, it would be doing 1,755 MPH!

I got this from a blogger on CNS website... The numbers look very legit to me. The media refuses to associate this terrible picture with Obama as it dutifully carries his water toward the 2012 election.

America simply can not afford another 4 years of Barack Hussein Obama.

This is a GREAT thing to leave around other boards in and around the internet.

Although liberals usually don’t bother with facts, it might sway a few independents.

But at least gays can french kiss each other on the military base now without fear of repercussions and we have 394 million illegal aliens that can look forward to becoming US citizens once Obama has his way. Oh, and now Americans are going to be forced by the government to buy a product that they can't afford. That ought to take care of the rest of the homeowners that haven't lost their homes during Obama's administration. Already have insurance, you can look forward to having it counted as taxable income in the future now so we can provide healthcare to the aforemntioned illegal immigrants. Obama, destroying America, one bill at a time. Thanks Democrats.

Not only can we not afford another 4 years of the stain...we cannot afford another 4 years of the handlers, manager, czars, and various commmunist/socialist/islamic/muslim/dem/lib/prog/pop that sit one or two levels below the stain.

The regime...the stain....must be ERADICATED! NOW!
