"$600 a second...."

Hey, guys, check this out.


"$600 a second!"

What's that?

That's the speed at which the national debt rising.
You know how I know. There used to to be a clock around 23 st. in New York that used to chronicle the increase in the debt.

During Clinton's years, the owners of the clock had to shut it down. Remember, we were showing a positive
budget balance and were well on our way to a trillion dollars of reserves...

Since Bush, forget it!

The clock now needs to be changed to add extra digits.
Something that was never anticipated--even under Reagan.
The truth is that it's been working overtime.

We are close to 10 trillion dollars in debt now.

What does that mean?

It means that every one of us owes the government 28,000 dollars--that's not chicken feed in case you hadn't noticed..

And the people we owe it to the Japanese, the Chinese, the English, the Saudis now own us. And that by itself is pretty depressing for a country that prided itself on being the leading country in the world. Maybe if we spent less time making war and more time creating jobs, we would be in better shape.

In the meantime, Mrs. Bush goes around touting getting young people to use the library. If they follow her advice, they will read about how bad things really are and dump them real fast.

Odd, how Bush really worshipped Ronnie. Now, he's
making Ronnie look like a piker when it comes to borrowing. This guy who can't add one and one, came to power believing that he could build a missile defense, start a few wars and give tax breaks to the rich and mighty and still be considered a Conservative. And they thought Saddam was deluded!.

Well, I got news for you: No real Conservative worth his salt is buying it!

And down, down, down the polls go; where they'll stop nobody knows!!!

In the meantime, the dems are coming out of their foxholes in anticipation of next year's fireworks. LES AARON
