National Debt Road Trip

by Roger on July 8, 2009

This short video on the National Debt presented as a road trip would be a bit comical if it was not true. Some might say it kind of bashes Obama, but it that’s not a fair statement since he uses Obama’s own numbers.

The President does indeed present a budget, but if I’m not mistaken the Constitution (remember that old thing?) actually puts the power of the purse strings in the hands of Congress. At least that’s why what I was taught in government class back in the dark ages.

Why does Congress seem to get off scott free? This video helps just a little by mentioning who was controlling congress during some of the spending sprees.

I have a feeling that by the time this is over, no one I talk to will admit having voted for Obama. But that doesn’t mean that Bush was a friend to freedom loving Americans.

If you want to Bush bash, no one does a more honest and succinct job than Doug Casey in this months Casey Report.

Get a clue (hint: Bush Sr and Clinton are now best buddies): there is not a dimes worth of difference between the Democrats and Republicans. Each is just designed to be hated a little less by one group of people.
