Obama Pushes Debt to $12 Trillion

In another political first, the Obama administration and the Democrat controlled congress gave us a new record national debt of $12 trillion.

It took our government less than 8 months to add over $1 trillion to the national debt.

Worse yet, the White House is reporting that the national debt could go to $14 trillion by the end of this fiscal year and over $24 trillion by 2019.

We need to demand an end to this reckless spending before America digs a hole that we can’t get out of.

Bush Deficit Continues to Grow

Like I was sayin… blame that other guy.

Six months into the Obama administration and Democrats continue to push the deficit on Bush.  A great post over at Conservative Patriot HQ puts some of the facts out there.

Recently, Steny Hoyer told a group of UVA grads how Bush handed Obama a $1.3 trillion deficit.  However, the chart in the article shows otherwise.

Since Obama has taken office, the deficit has quadrupled to over $1.85 trillion according to the CBO.

The other point is that the democrats have been in charge of congress since 2006.  It is congress that sets the spending limits and the budget.

It will be interesting to see who they blame for the deficit next year.
