Not looking good for United (Reuters)

[Benhuntn]

Energy and healthcare will do more damage to the economy than the loss of any auto maker or bank.

To the idiot on Bush costs: Bush left us 435 Billion in Debt. Obama already is pushing 3 Trillion. Add Energy and health it jumps to 8-9 Trillion.

Yep, no kidding. But hey, they have lots of American flag stickers on their cars....

What I'm sick of is all the Obama tshirts I see in the airports. I wish they would stop rubbing it in that he won. I didn't run around in a Bush shirt after he beat Kerry. Just goes to show the level of class of some of his fanclub.

On the day President Bush took office, the national debt stood at $5.727 trillion. The latest number from the Treasury Department shows the national debt now stands at more than $9.849 trillion. That’s a 71.9 percent increase on Mr. Bush’s watch.

The bailout plan now pending in Congress could add hundreds of billions of dollars to the national debt – though President Bush said this morning he expects that over time, “much if not all” of the bailout money “will be paid back.”

But the government is taking no chances. Buried deep in the hundred pages of bailout legislation is a provision that would raise the statutory ceiling on the national debt to $11.315 trillion. It’ll be the 7th time the debt limit has been raised during this administration. In fact it was just two months ago, on July 30, that President Bush signed the Housing and Economic Recovery Act, which contained a provision raising the debt ceiling to $10.615 trillion.

We already have a nationalized health care system. It's called the Emergency Room and it is incredibly expensive and inefficient.

A Bush supporter has ZERO credibility when it comes to deficit spending.

It was Dick Cheney who dismissed deficits as a political problem that was unimportant; "Deficits don't matter." Apparently they did not matter to the Bush administration.

What a frickin idiot, 10 years of war and only 435 billion in Debt? Get your military head out of your butt and recheck your math.

"The Bush administration, supported by the Federal Reserve and congress, went on a spending binge after 2001 to pull the economy out of its tailspin after the stock market crash. The national debt was $5.5 trillion in 2001 when Bush took office and will be $10 trillion when he leaves. After the 2001 market crash, he will have doubled the US national debt in 8 years to prop up the financial markets. The money was spent on his Iraq war, tax cut programs and any other pork project congress could dream up. No spending bills were vetoed. Loan standards were dramatically loosened and consumers were induced to borrow money and spend it."

But, at least we were "safe"

 

[Hair-on-Fire]

and not a peep about deficits during the last 8 years from you guys.

 

[Flying the Line]

Exactly why I hate BOTH parties.

 

[NEDude]

Republicans are becoming more hypocritical every day.

Bush more than doubles the debt in office and the "fiscal conservatives" are silent. Obama is in office less than six months and they are already losing their voice over all the screaming about debt. Look in the mirror guys.

Family values and fiscally conservative Governor Sanford is being investigated for taking state money to fund trips to Argentina to see his mistress.

Ardent anti-Gay rights Senator Craig gets arrested for soliciting gay sex.

My favorite, defacto leader of the Republican party Rush Limbaugh mocks drug users and addicts on his radio show for claiming it is a sickness, only to get arrested for prescription drug abuse. His excuse - "its a sickness".

Of course there are many others as well.

I am becoming more convinced the more vocal you are in beliefs, the more likely you are to be hiding a skeleton in your closet.

Oooops, you forgot Iraq cost us $1 trillion.(thanks Bush) Your numbers don't add up. Go back to MAF.
