I would put the total Bush Heist at $5 Trillion…
Under the Bush, our National Debt went from $5.7 Trillion to today’s total of $9.7 Trillion. Add in the $1 trillion they are stealing now, I say it is $5 trillion.

It all went to 1) the rich, 2) Bush Inc, and 3) cost of stealing $5 trillion (ie payoffs, Congress, etc).

Everybody complains about TAXES especially the republicans. But our tax dollars are going straight into the pockets of the rich.

You see any improvements in America that adds up to $5 trillion?

Add in the fact that they are exporting our manufacturing and jobs - how exactly are we supposed to be prosperous? Eat? Live?

No jobs. We are being thrown out of our homes. Our basic living expenses like transportation and food are skyrocketing...

We may have Nuclear Bombs, but sooner than later, the Countries of the World will ignore us. "They are nothing but has been's". We are nothing but a shell of a country. And these people are stealing the last bit of America thats left.

That’s ok America, and DU, lets just keep our power dry like our Democratic representatives are doing… and just bitch about it… while our country dies…
