Senator Barack Hussein Obama: You Know What's Unpatriotric? Sorta... Unamerican? Racking Up $4 Trillion in Debt In Seven and a Half Years, That's What | Ace of Spades HQ

I condemn Obama for calling himself unpatriotic.

Obama criticized Bush for accruing $4 trillion in debt in seven and a half years; Obama managed that feat in 2 1/2.

I guess Obama’s problem is Bush’s relative slow-footedness.

This isn’t even a “Well he did it too” thing. For God’s sake, Obama castigated Bush for piling on that much debt, and rather than cutting it, as he promised, he… doubled it? And in only 2 1/2 years?

Consider that Obama’s basic complaint was that so much debt was harmful and, um, “unpatriotic.” So, Bush had added $4 trillion in unpatriotic debt. Obama’s response is to add $4 trillion on top of that in just more than a half a term?

If the country was already crumbling under the collective weight of Bush’s debt, what the hell was the Clown Prince of Socialism doing adding $4 trillion in fresh burden above and beyond the initial load?
