No, that’s not quite the amount of taxpayer money that Barry has spent on ensuring that every official record bearing any relation at all to his life is kept under lock and key, away from the prying eyes of pesky voters.
It is the size of America’s national debt, as of 1500 hours yesterday.
And it gets worse, predictably.
The White House budget review issued in August projects that by the end of the current fiscal year on September 30th, the national debt could top $14 trillion. And seeing as that’s the massaged White House figures, we can dump another couple trillion bucks on top of it. At which point America owes more than it produces, and bankruptcy is no longer just a theoretical possibility.
Divided evenly among the U.S. population, it amounts to $38,974.34 for every man, woman and child.
Successive idiot-presidents, but particularly the current one, have succeeded in bringing the most industrious, innovative and creative nation the world has ever known to its knees.
But still, those on the Left will insist that Barry’s deficit and debt are “good”, while those of Bush were “bad.” Because they really are that stupid.
And what is the Left’s solution?
Why, more of the same, of course. Sure, Barry will make some noises about cutting spending, but he won’t let that affect his socialist agenda of massive state spending on cap’n'tax, health care, potentially Porkulous II, and a host of other things. So what will there be left for Barry to cut?

Good Lord, it’s as if they won the lottery and must spend it all at once. Problem is that there was no lottery to win.
Must be that criminal high feeling while picking the tax payer’s pockets clean.

Do you think he’d change his spending ways if he had to personally hand-deliver all of the funds he wants to spend and redistribute – in pennies??
