The United States government's accumulated debts have grown by more than $7 trillion – with a 't' – since Barack Obama became president on January 20, 2009.

The sad milestone was revealed on July 31 by the U.S. Department of the Treasury on a 'debt to the penny' website that calculates the debt at the end of every business day.

On Obama's first day in office the debt stood at $10.626 trillion. Last Thursday it reached $17.687 trillion.

Somber salute to the economy? When Barack Obama came home from Camp David on Sunday, the nation was $7 trillion poorer than it was when he first arrived at the White House on January 20, 2009

Up, up, up: 
The national debt has grown steadily during the Obama years, jumping by a total of $7 trillion as of July 31

America's first 43 presidents took 223 years to rack up the country's first $7 trillion in red ink.

Obama has duplicated that dubious achievement in less than five years and seven months. 

After the same number of days in office, former President George W. Bush had increased the national debt by a comparatively paltry $2.720 trillion.

Bill Clinton's debt load at the same point in his presidency had increased by just $1,324 trillion.

The right-leaning Cybercast News Service was first to point out that Obama had cleared the $7 trillion hurdle in added financial obligations.

During a July 2008 campaign speech in North Dakota, then-Senator Obama ripped into the Bush administration for running up the federal debt by a total of $4 billion near the end of his second term.

'The problem is,' he said, 'is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents – #43 added $4 trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back – $30,000 for every man, woman and child.'

'That’s irresponsible,' Obama said then. 'It’s unpatriotic.'

Barry assesses the situation and comes up with this knowing the idiots will fall for it and the MSM will never hold him accountable:

I'll say anything to get elected.

It's not permissible for anyone to hold me accountable. You didn't expect the MSM to question me did you?

The Republican Party ripped into the president on Monday with an email blast charging that after '[i]gnoring warnings from all corners, Obama has one of the worst records on the federal debt in U.S. history.'

The White House didn't immediately respond to a request for a response.

In February the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimated that 'federal debt held by the public will equal 74 percent of GDP at the end of this year and 79 percent in 2024.'

At the end of 2008, that number was just 39 per cent. At current rates of spending, by 2019 the debt will be larger than the nation's annual GDP.

Contrast: In their combined 12 years in office, the two Presidents Bush added a total of $7.4 trillion to the national debt -- a number Obama will equal after six years

'Such large and growing federal debt,' the CBO warns, 'could have serious negative consequences, including restraining economic growth in the long term, giving policymakers less flexibility to respond to unexpected challenges, and eventually increasing the risk of a fiscal crisis.'

Debt held by the public makes up about 71 per cent of the total federal debt. The rest consists of 'intragovernmental holdings' – government-speak for gaps in the Medicare Trust Fund, the Social Security Trust Fund, and other revolving funds.

Those lines on Uncle Sam's balance sheet totaled $5,036 trillion at the end of last Thursday, a number that represents how far behind the government is in meeting its long-term obligations to retirees and other benefit-takers.

Government spending has skyrocketed during Obama's time in office due to a combinations of his policies, a spendthrift Congress and recession-related automatic stabilizers like unemployment insurance that can quickly drain the Treasury.

The annual deficit – a single year's addition to the larger debt – was $1.413 trillion in 2009, Obama's first year in the White House. He has steadily reduced it year-on-year, and the 2014 deficit is expected to be $492 billion.

That number, however, is still larger than any other annual deficit in the history of the U.S. before he became president.

How to treat our one and only friend in the Middle East

This administration has always been passive rather than proactive in any given situation. "Leading from behind " comes to mind. The only way they find out what they're doing is when they hear about it on the news. In this instance their source must have been Al Jeezra because they have now sided with Hamas, a known terrorist organization financed and armed by Iran.

No previous administrated has given Israel, especially Netanyahu, the cold shoulder like the current one. I'm still in shock Barry carried the Jewish vote in the second go around. I would have thought they learned from their mistake.

But getting to the crux of the matter... The only reason for the existence of Hamas is the utter destruction of Israel period. Guess the fools in this administration fail to understand that, or worse yet, they do.

Hamas knows they can't go one on one against Israel's military. So they are waging a propaganda war using photos like these,

sacrificing women and children, knowingly placing them in arms way, in order to post it on the internet gaining sympathy from the media and the uneducated. (AKA low information Obama voters which includes most of Hollywood.)

No one wants to see children killed. Israel has done everything they can to avoid harming civilians. When was the last time Hamas distributed leaflets to warn Israeli citizens of an impending attack? What is Israel supposed to do...apologize for incurring less casualties then Hamas?

The proof Hamas could care less about the citizens in Lebanon... what are missiles, ammunition, RPG's, etc doing in and near schools, mosques, and hospitals?

Recently, the IDF decided to release intelligence photos such as this one – showing how Hezbollah has spread its weaponry throughout Lebanese villages in homes, mosques, hospitals and schools – making it impossible for Israel to defend itself against terrorist attacks without causing substantial civilian casualties such as happened in the Gaza war. The IDF had to make a decision as whether to keep this intelligence secret (from Hezbollah) or to let the world (and Hezbollah) know that Israel knows exactly where their arms are stockpiled.

In order to examine the situation we should look back to who provoked this latest conflict.

Weren't 3 Israeli teenagers kidnapped and killed by Muslims.

On 26 June, the Israel Security Agency released the identities of two Hamas suspects in the kidnapping. Both ISA and Palestinian authorities said that the two men have been missing since the night of the kidnapping, and the ISA stated that both had engaged in terrorism, been arrested, and served time in the past, and were considered suspects immediately after the kidnapping. A senior Palestinian intelligence official said off the record that their disappearance constituted clear evidence the two suspects have links with the abduction.

Look back over the past 50 years. How many times have you read about a Jewish suicide bomber?  Jews indiscriminately setting off  IED's? Flying airplanes into buildings? Wanting to kill someone because they converted from Judaism to Christianity? When was the last time you heard about Jews beheading anyone? 

BTW...how would you like Muslims tunneling in to our country?
(We got enough problems with illegals) 

One final thought...what's the first thing you think of when you here the word Muslim or Islam?

Bet it ain't "it's the religion of peace".

Obama thanks Muslims for ‘building the very fabric of our nation'

Of course, as we look back to the history books of our youth  none of us remembers reading about the major influence Islam had in “building the fabric” of America. Maybe I'm wrong but can't say I even remember hearing the words Muslim or Islam. But this I do know. Islam has created nothing but death and destruction in every country where they have a presence. What a complete asinine, stupid, statement for Barry to make. You really have to question his mental state.

Barack Hussein Obama

Hussein meaning and name origin

Hussein \hu(s)-sein\ as a boy's name is pronounced hoo-SAYN. It is of Arabic origin, and the meaning of Hussein is "good; small handsome one". The name of a prominent person in Shiite Islam and a royal name in Jordan. American President Barack Hussein Obama.

(The fact he got elected with this name 7 years away from 911 still blows me away)

 We just have to keep telling ourselves...he's not a Muslim...he's not a Muslim...he's not a Muslim...and sooner or later we'll believe it.

-----------------------------------------------------

President Obama and his wife sent out a joint statement to Muslims in America for the Eid-al-Fitr holiday, thanking them for their contributions in “building the fabric” of the country.

A couple of examples:

The Freedom Tower was built because of Islam.

Islam built two prosthetic legs for Bostonian Jeff Bauman.

The statement, as posted on the White House website reads in part:

 “As Muslims throughout the United States and around the world celebrate Eid-al-Fitr, Michelle and I extend our warmest wishes to them and their families. The holiday celebrates the common values that unite us in our humanity and reinforces the obligations that people of all faiths have to each other, especially those impacted by poverty, conflict and disease.”

The Obamas then express appreciation to the Muslim community for helping forge America.

“In the United States,” the statement continued, “Eid also reminds us of the many achievements and contributions of Muslim Americans to building the very fabric of our nation and strengthening the core of our democracy. … On behalf of the Administration, we wish Muslims in the United States and around the world a blessed and joyous celebration. Eid Mubarak.”

The greeting “Eid Mubarak” means “blessed celebration.”

 Poll Shows Americans Would Vote Against President Obama In 2012 Redo

This after he was just voted the worse president since WW ll which I believe is total BS. Barry is the 44th president of the United States. Name me one that was worse? Speaking of WW ll simply to give it some perspective and strike fear in your heart… imagine during that time Barry was POTUS.

Tell me you didn't shit your pants just a little bit?

-------------------------------------------------------

A Mitt Romney 2016 presidential election campaign may actually have the legs to stand up on its own based upon a new CNN/ORC poll which indicates that Americans would have voted for Romney instead of President Barack Obama if the 2012 election were done over again.

In a related report by The Inquisitr, while Mitt Romney claimed Bill Clinton "embarrassed the nation," in Hillary's case, he initially was easy on the potential 2016 Democratic Party contender, saying she would need to have "her own record, her own vision for where she would take the country. And I think that's something which will be debated extensively during the 2016 campaign."

But the sweet talk did not last long, and Romney eventually opened up about what he meant about Hillary Clinton's record:

"I mean, there's almost not a place in the world that's better off because of her leadership in the State Department. I think the most disturbing thing I saw from Hillary Clinton was when she was asked whether released the five commanders from Guantánamo back to the Taliban was a threat to the United States and she said 'no, it's not a threat to the U.S., it's a threat to Afghanistan and to Pakistan.' That may be one of the most clueless responses I've heard in a long time."

During this time frame, Hillary's approval rating has taken a dive, but that is nothing compared to President Obama's approval rating, which recently reached a new low of 40 percent according to Gallup. Now a new CNN/ORC poll must have a certain someone wincing from within the White House since it shows Americans would have voted 53 percent to 44 percent in favor of Romney, which is an amazing nine-point margin.

To put this in perspective, Obama actually won the 2012 election by 51 percent of the vote. The disapproval also reached new heights since only 46 percent say Obama "shares [their] values," while only 49 percent say he is "sincere in what he says." That's not exactly something you want to hear if you are POTUS.

But any Republicans who may wish for a Mitt Romney 2016 presidential run will just need to keep wishing. Romney is apparently happy to be spending more time with his family, and he's working from behind the scenes to raise money for whomever the GOP actually choose for the 2016 candidate. In fact, one report from The Inquisitr lists how Romney has consistently shot down any suggestion he run from the beginning of this year to June.

Still, it's possible Romney may already have an unnamed Republican in mind for 2016:

"I'm not running. I can tell you I think our best prospects of taking back the White House will be with one of these people that's on the field getting heard now."

Would you support a Mitt Romney 2016 presidential election campaign if it occurred or do you think Republicans need new blood to run for POTUS?
