Truth to Power

We owe how much?

Gee I thought conservatives were supposed to be good with our money. Guess that was yet another lie:

National debt passes $10 trillion

The Swamp reports today that “on the last day of September, the national debt hit $10 trillion plus,” as the “gross national debt as a percentage of the gross domestic product has, under the Bush Administration, hit a 50-year high. The debt grew the fastest under supply-siders Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush:

“debt2”

The debt was $5.7 trillion when Bush took office; the bailout legislation passed by the Senate last night would raise the debt ceiling further to $11.315 trillion.

Oh, now I remember. They are only good with their money– not ours.
