Obama's Deficit?

The estimated population of the United States is 306,240,937
so each citizen's share of this debt is $36,952.67.

The National Debt has continued to increase an average of
$3.82 billion per day since September 28, 2007

America's deficit as I write this blog stands at
$11,316,421,259,706.56

What caused this debt? Obama? Obama who has only been in office for a few months now? Did Obama not come into office with a deficit?

The cost of war: $860,850,934,756.00
$5,000 per minute, $12 billion monthly.
Now many Bush supporters claim the war is needed, it has kept us safe since 9-11. Personally, I believe 9-11 should never have happened. I have been afraid, along with millions of other Americans, since then. How many attacks of that magnitude have happened before or since?

November 9171: Iranian students attacked and seized the American Embassy in Tehran.
April 1983: A large vehicle packed with high explosives was driven into the US Embassy compound in Beirut.
December 1983: Another truck loaded with explosives is driven into the US Embassy in Kuwait.
September 1984: Yet another van was driven into the gate of the US Embassy in Beirut.
April 1985: A bomb explodes in a restaurant frequented by US soldiers in Madrid.
February 1993: A group of terrorists are arrested after a rented van packed with explosives is driven into the underground parking garage of the World Trade Center in New York City. Six people are killed and over 1000 are injured.
November 1995: A car bomb explodes at a US military complex in Riyadh.
June 1996: another truck bomb explodes only 35 yards from the US military compound in Dhahran.
October 2000: Attack on USS Cole in the port of Aden.
September 2001: Two hijacked planes crash into the World Trade Center, one "mystery" plane crashes into the Pentagon. While another plane "disintegrates" New York City.

This is a few of the terrorist events in our history. With this obvious build up of terrorist attacks, why was the information before 9-11 pushed aside? There was enough information to prevent this attack. From the pilot training station in Florida to anonymous tips.
The biggest terrorist attack in US history occurred on George W. Bush's watch.
Why are we in Iraq? Why has the war been labeled "Operation Iraqi Freedom" Why has it taken 8 years to resolve this conflict?

George W. Bush left office with the highest deficit in US history. The needless war is only one example of needless spending during his administration. Obama did not create this deficit he merely inherited it.

The bottom line is: If you supported the war in Iraq. If you supported the Bush administration. If you supported deregulation, wastful spending, tax cuts for the top %5 percent and a war plan with no end then you supported the deficit. The economy was in a free fall. See I did not vote for Bush I Knew GWB would destroy this country. Please remember if Bush wasn't so terrible there would not be an OBAMA or Democratic majority that is filabuster proof. Really Obamas' deficit?

OBAMA V/S CHENEY

Please tell me that you are not falling for Cheney's lies. This is what I gather from the entire situation. Bush was appointed President after a very close and never settled election. This left the country divided and weakened his position. He was focused on Iraq and bringing down Saddam. During this early time he was given information on the domestic threats from Bin Laden, that he ignored, because it did not fit in his agenda. This is where I fail to understand why action to follow up on the Intel was not ordered. I can only assume he did not take it seriously. A few months later on 9-11 it happened. The Bush administration freaked out at first. Then it dawned on them, they better strike while the iron was hot. The torture performed was to create Intel, not acquire. They simply needed a reason to go into Iraq. Now here it is.

This is just speculation so it can be argued, but water boarding someone 83 times in 30 days is torture. The fact that he is a terrorist is not the point, like Obama said "We are America".
What Dick is doing is dirty. You can't set someone up like he has. Its like a pilot who finished his leg of the flight telling his replacement not to crash the plane in front of the passengers. In this case Dick crashed the plane, more than once. Dick Cheney is a scary dude but the scariest part of this whole ordeal is some of you agree with him and Bush.
Liz Cheney and her dad should be ashamed for this. They are trying to sabotage Obama and the USA. This is bulls@!t.
Bush and Cheney have destroyed this country in so many ways. There is not one thing they did that can be looked at as good for the USA without a ton of debate.

Gamecock Baseball Player Arrested

USC Baseball player arrested sat. night, guess where he was at. Everyone is right 5 points is correct. When will these players start going to the Vista. Find older friends with houses off campus. Five points is a ghetto trap. Stay away!
Mathew Rihn an in fielder, apparently was banging on the cops car so they kicked his ass and put him in jail. Standard procedure.
USC has yet to comment. The only thing I want to hear is all athletes are banned from five points for the rest of the year. The students should also stay away if they like college, breathing, freedom, their drivers license, how their nose looks, the windows in their car, virginity, or self respect.

UPDATE:

Casey Rihn has been dismissed from the South Carolina baseball team, Gamecocks coach Ray Tanner said Monday.

Rihn was arrested early Sunday morning in Five Points by Columbia police on charges of public drunkenness, disorderly conduct, and resisting arrest. Slapping a cops car with his hand.

Tanner made the decision to drop the backup second baseman from La Habra, Calif., who had hit .321 in limited playing time this season, after meeting with him Sunday.

Tanner called the transfer from Santa Ana Junior College a quality person and a strong student, but he believed a standard needs to be in place for the program.

“He made a bad decision, and you’re responsible for your decision,” Tanner said. “There are penalties. There are consequences.”

He called the decision not to take Rihn to the SEC Tournament and not renew the player’s scholarship a difficult one.

“I don’t like being the tough guy,” Tanner said. “It’s just the right thing to do.”

Abortion ?

Has everyone forgot how it was when abortions were illegal. Women still had abortions. Except those that were well off could have a doctor come to their home and perform the abortion discreetly. The poor went to back alley clinics where they were lucky if they had a veterinarian performing the abortion. Alot of times there were complications that were fatal. Others had to be rushed to the ER, and were likely to get caught and arrested.
If they had other children they would be taken from the woman. Causing a ripple effect. A more disturbing fact is that some women had no one to turn to so they tried to abort the pregnancy themselves. Young girls, molested or raped or just ashamed for a number of reasons resorted to close hangers and poison many times.
Students at Notre Dame must not understand this or do not really care. They know they would just fly to a state that allowed abortions if they needed to.
See Obama has to approach issues in the real world. Not the fairy tale land where we can cut taxes and cure problems. Because that does not work. Just look at what he faces.

Now who wants a crapload of new problems that come with outlawing abortion. And were do you stand on torture. Look what this issue has caused. How can anyone spin the fact that torture is illegal and does not work.

And please remember if Gore would have been Pres. When he won the election but Harris stoped the recount and declared Bush the winner in FLA. There would not be an Obama and maybe we would not be so totally screwed. So shut up if you voted for Bush Because you are an idiot.

I do not like killing unborn babies and never will but I'm a man. Do you believe the drug war works. I want a drug war on persciptions like VIAGRA,ZOLOFT,RIDLIN, ect. Im sure Jesus would agree.

Whats important, Whats realistic, When will China rename my state. How long after that will they rename my kids?

F the banks, credit cards, big business, and stockmarket

When will someone stand up for the little guy. I am so sick of hearing bankers, pundits and politicians explain how poor people are to blame for the worlds trouble. This is so false. Anyone who argues these points are either lying, stupid or both. Poor people can only do what they are allowed. We have been sold out period. Look around and you can see. The have's take from the have nots.
The bailouts 1,500,000,000,000 went to the banks credit cards and God Knows where else. They have used our money in a fight to continue screwing us daily. You can not stop it. If we stop doing business with a company like Citi bank and they lose money they will pay off the politician's so they get bailed out. If you want something done by a congressman try "donating" money to them, this is what happens, except they pay off everyone. This is why credit cards charge 30% interest and why we now own AIG, GM, CITI, and the list continues. And when I say we own them it actually means they own us. So don' t expect any real change.
