Chew On This: After Historic Spending Binge Obama Promises to Cut Federal Fat

“We need to restore the American people’s confidence in their government — that it is on their side, spending their money wisely.”

Barack Obama

** Barack Obama already signed the largest spending bill in the history of the planet.
** Obama’s budget more than doubles the national debt held by the public, and adds more to the debt than all previous presidents — from George Washington to George W. Bush — combined.
** Barack Obama managed to spend more than the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan combined.
** Obama and democrats have already saddled America’s children and grand children with massive debt. Not that this bothers them.
** Barack Obama is on track to spend more money than any person in the history of Earth.
** The US debt is so large that America couldn’t qualify to join the EU if it wanted to.
** President Obama expects the deficit level to be 12% of GDP this year larger than Great Britain’s record 10% deficit to GDP.

According to Heritage, Obama will quadruple the deficit this year.


Obama’s budget will significantly increase public held national debt.
In the long run, Washington is dumping a colos­sal amount of debt on the laps of our children and grandchildren.

Yesterday, Barack Obama promised to “trim the federal fat.”
Tell me… Why is this so hard to swallow?
