Clock Stopper


Back in the late ‘80’s Manhattan real estate developer, Seymour Durst put up the first National Debt Clock. He was cheesed off ‘cause America was in the hole to the tune of a couple o’ trillion dollars. Bad news folks. We're more than ten trillion down as we speak.



The national debt has grown so much in the past few timescales that the National Debt Clock has now run out of friggin’ numbers. SHEESH! Eight years of Chimp-Dick’s Administration and twelve out of the last fourteen years of Congress under Republican control and we’re swimming in an ocean of red ink.



The crux of today’s biscuit is simple: If you believe that the Republican Party is the party of fiscal responsibility, you’re dumb as a sack of doorknobs. If you believe that the Democrats are gonna raise your taxes, you’d be right. After all, someone has to pay for all this shizzle. Us.
