As regards that chart, I think George Bush has an unfair advantage over President Obama. His numbers are not getting worse. We might have to take a red magic markers to the lines under Obama’s name. I think the new estimate for 2010 is 1.6 trillion. That is 400 billion higher than the estimate on the chart — an improvement of a tad over 33 percent (it is more money for widows and orphans and otters — I mean others). Or we could say that the Democrats have allocated more resources to the National Debt. Or we could say, “if it weren’t for the stimulus, the defecit would be even bigger!” Or that money has merely been redeployed from your future to their present. Thank you!

Maybe I’ll call Washington Deadwood, in honor of the Democrat Controlled Congress. As in: “The Deadbeat Democrats down in Deadwood are inundating us in debt.”

or:

“There sure is a lot of dead weight and dead ideas amongst the Deadwood Democrats.”

Just a thought.
