US Fed $10 Trillion In Debt, Republicans Have Tied Around The Necks Of Every American

The legacy of Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, George W. "the Shrub" Bush is a debt for which our children and grandchildren will be paying.  Meanwhile, the Democratic leadership on Capitol Hill still haven't grown a spine.
 

National debt passes $10 trillion.

The Swamp reports today that "on the last day of September, the national debt hit $10 trillion plus," as the gross national debt as a percentage of the gross domestic product has, under the Bush Administration, hit a 50-year high. The debt grew the fastest under supply-siders Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush:

The debt was $5.7 trillion when Bush took office; the bailout legislation passed by the Senate last night would raise the debt ceiling further to $11.315 trillion. The Wonk Room has more.

And impeachment is stilll off the table.
