Today when Obama was chattering again on TV for his budget speech, he said once again that he inherited 1 trillion dollars of debt.

So that was 1 trillion for the war, Sept 11th and Katrina. Not to menion all the other natural disasters we have had in the last 8 yrs.

Now does anyone have any idea of what Obama has spent? Keep in mind they are passing through another 410 billion dollar bill as we speak for more "porkies". It has to be close to 2 trillion he has spent by now.

This is change alright. We are all sitting here and watching this nut dismantle this country and destroy our futures.

He is providing the means to salvage whatever we have left of our economy and country. You are wrong.

The spending bill you speak of is his first budget that takes effect October 1st. We are still under Bush budget until then.

Remember when Reagan slashed the taxes and expanded spending and built the largest deficit ever?
Then Clinton came in, cut it down, and balanced it out again.

That's all Obama's doing.

Clinton was dragged to a balanced budget by the Republican House, you forgot that point.

He is providing an injection which will last about three years. After that, we will pay for it due to increased taxes.

He is providing the means not to salvage our economy, but to duct tape it together for a few more years.

But, they couldn't do the same for Mr. Bush during his first six years in office?
