Out of curiousity Stretch...
Why have you not posted this year's stats for the growing dooms day deficit? I don't think you have missed one year in the last eight until now. You were pretty quick to jump at last year's ridiculous record high of $500 billion. We hit a new record high of $1.4 trillion that is almost a trillion more than the last this year alone and not even so much as a peep out of you.

Obama has hit two recrods in his presidency in his first year!
- Record for the most spending of all past presidents in their first six months of office.
- Record for the highest deficit in one year amounting to only a measily trillion more than the previous record.
Oh, well no biggy, right... Pitching for the olympics to be held at Chicago for a 5 hour meeting is obviously more important than everything else including Afghan.
Shit happens, blame Bush!
