Am I Upset? I Think So!

 FOX NEWS POLL: A majority of voters would prefer to see the government cut spending rather than increase it — and 60 percent say the 2009 stimulus package largely did not work. Voters: Cut Spending

So, 60 percent of those surveyed think that President Obama's $800 million stimulus program was a waste of money. No kidding! Are these people just waking up to that, or has this been their opinion for some time? The same people think government spending is out of control. Are they just waking up to that too or have they known this for sometime? If the answer is "yes, they've known this for sometime," then why in the hell did they give this man a second term?! Stupidly foolish, i think is the answer to that one. 

Obama, in his first four years pushed the government credit card to just short of bankruptcy. And now that you stupidly foolish people have re-elected him he will take us to bankruptcy in the next four years. The only way this won't happen is if America wakes up and puts a stop to it in the 2014 mid-term elections by keeping the GOP in charge of the House and throwing the democratic majority out of the Senate. 

Here is the stark reality. As of today, the national debt is $16,512,754, 500,000 and counting. (the "16" number is TRILLION) Each citizen in this country, man, woman and child, owes as their share $52,373. (I'm sorry, I don't have that kind of money to pay as an IOU.) Not all citizens are taxpayers. If you are a taxpayer, your share is $146,118. (You are paying yourself and those who pay no taxes...which, by the way is close to 50% of all Americans.) See for yourself: U.S. Debt Clock

By contrast, in 2008, the year before Obama took office, the national debt was $9,389,763,000,000 (again, the "9" is in trillions) Each citizen owed $30,943 of the debt and taxpayers owed $87,195. So, in his first four years Good President Obama added over $6 trillion to the national debt all by himself. That $6 trillion is more than all the presidents, from George Washington to George W. Bush, spent put together!  At the end of Obama's sure to be disastrous second term, it's estimated the new president will take office in January of 2017 facing a debt of $22,627,442,000,000. (that number is as of today....and counting.)

No wonder 60 percent of voters think we have a spending problem. The only problem is they woke up too that fact too late! President Obama, on the other hand is of the opinion that we don't have a spending problem. He wants more money to spend and is pushing for yet another tax increase just months after getting his so-called tax the rich increase on January 1st.  He also wants a blank check to raise the debt ceiling to whatever he wishes. 

Mr. Obama has his head in the sand....as do the stupidly foolish voters who gave him a second term!

Am I upset??  I think so!
