The * economic miracle rolls on
I don't know if this is valid but I read it on the internets so it has to be true.

:rofl: Look at what the conservative * admin has done for us. God help
us when China, Saudi Arabia, Japan, and S. Korea call in their notes.

<US debt as of September 20, 2005:
$7,926,133,559,535.51 ($8 Trillion)

Increasing at an average of $1.54 billion per day since September 30, 2004

Between September 2003 and September 2004, non-U.S. citizens increased their holdings by $400 billion, from $1.46 trillion to $1.86 trillion — financing the entire $422 billion budget deficit for fiscal year 2004.

The government's obligations, current liabilities and unfunded commitments are more than $43 trillion and rising. As the Government Accountability Office suggests, the estimated net worth of all American families is about $47 trillion, and 90 percent of that would be required to cover current obligations.

The estimated population of the United States 2005 is 297,500,000 people

Each resident and citizen — man, woman, child and newborn's — share of the national debt: Twenty six thousand, six hundred and sixty seven US dollars.>

2. Sorry it is a copy of a clip posted on a blog .......
It sound about right $8 trillion in debt is a figure I have read & heard.

Can we not be like the other side? Just say what ever? Kerry wounded
himself ...... Gore claimed to invent the internet ...... Clinton ran coke
and had people killed ....... "the liberal media" is out to get bush.

3. It's obvious they don't care.

5. It's not just us thats affected either..
I just worked on a show that was Celebrating 94 years of Taiwanese Independence. The people of Taiwan were counting on America stepping in when China comes to take over the rule of Taiwan. Since we are now into China for billions I doubt the U.S. is in a position to take a stand against China for anything. I wonder what the freepers think of their exaulted leader putting the U.S. into serious debt with a COMMUNIST COUNTRY! C'mon Freeps, tell me how good for America that is.

6. Freeps will not touch this ....
.... it has to do with the real world and real #s. But Clinton's penis or
the liberal media they would be all over it.

These #s are going to take about 1/4 of * base and congressional support
from him ..... no way to spin em.

The country of Mao tse Dung owns our mortgage and they will build
"stuff" cheaper then we can and use Wal Mart to sell it killing US jobs
and our downtowns. Those dirty reds beat us not on the battlefield but
@ our own game Capitalism.
