Obama Debt Watch: 192 Days: One Trillion Dollars Plus
According to the Bureau of Public Debt, Obama has racked up $1,042,374,300,592 in new debt since taking the oath of office on January 20 of this year. In comparison George W. Bush actually [paid off some of the] debt during his [first 192 days]. (Blue Line.)
In reality that comparison is a bit unfair. Prior to assuming office GWB was Governor of Texas and did not have a lot of influence on the national debt in his first months of office. Of course that’s a different story for Barrack Obama as he was in the Senate prior to advancing to the White House. Since he supported all of the spending programs in the Senate he is as responsible for the debt incurred during the last 6 months as anyone. The last all-Republican budget year was FY 2007 which had a $160 billion dollar deficit.
That’s right, it’s only been a little over six months for Obama to bankrupt us.
By the way, feel free to use that graphic all you want. (Sorry it’s kinda crummy.)
