US deficit zooming to half-trillion as Bush leaves »
Posted By STONERS 1 year, 4 months ago in News
The deficit will hit $482 billion in the 2009 budget year that will be inherited by Democrat Barack Obama or Republican John McCain , the White House estimated Monday. That figure is sure to rise after adding the tens of billions of dollars in additional Iraq war funding it doesn't include, and the total could be higher yet if the economy fails to recover as the administration predicts.

FTA: "Monday's figures capped a remarkable deterioration in the United States' budgetary health under Bush's time in office."
Dumya will pass more than an 11 Trillion deficit to the next president! Worst president further validated! Worst party, the Repugs, also revalidated!

Bush doesn't care, Google up what he has stashed away in the last 10 years and what he will make after he leaves, so why should the biggest crook in a Presidents disguise care about the national debt ? How did this sad excuse for a human being get to be President of the United States? I wonder .

he is laughing all the way to the bank on the price of gas.... and why he does nothing! Also, he did nothing when the Israelis escalated the abduction of 3 soldiers to all out war in lebanon.... kinda like his doing nothing those 7 minutes after he was notified of 911!

...the country would be better off now if he and Cheney would have gotten their due back before 911.... so someone else wouldn't have ignored a brief like Dumya did that was titled: "OBL Determined to Attack Inside the USA", that mentioned the use of planes.

They are literally draining the treasury, devalueing the dollar, and robbing average Americans with the price of gas. It's all part of the plan to hurt our country and make the next administration hand-tied. Meanwhile we send billions to defense contractrors figthing and killing people in Iraq while Bin Laden remains free.
I wonder where Bin Laden went and why our intelligence folks can't find him?
