Bush is spending our country into bankruptcy.

Government spending has grown nearly 29% over the last four years.

The Bush administration has spent money twice as fast Clinton. (7.6% vs. 3.4%)

Fighting the Al Quaeda terrorists costs money, but the fiscally responsible solution is to cut back low priority government spending.

Pork-barrel Republicans in Congress have increased nondefense discretionary spending at a record rate of 36%. Bush has yet to veto one pork-barrel spending bill.

In just 4 years, the Bush administration has increased nondefense discretionary spending by 1/3 more than the Clinton administration did in 8 years.

The government’s 2.4 trillion dollar budget means government is now spending more than $20,000 dollars for every family in America.

Out of control spending is causing deficits and government debt to balloon, mortgaging our future and the futures of our children and grandchildren with total liabilities of nearly $40 trillion dollars.

The Bush administration claims that it will run a $500 billion deficit. .

The Bush administration continues to use phony accounting to cover up how the government raids social security to pay for pork barrel spending. The true deficit to be over $700 billion dollars per year.

The total national debt, including what is owed to social security, has reached a record breaking level of $7 trillion.

If Bush is reelected and continues to borrow and spend, it will pass $10 trillion!

That will add to the national debt-a debt we are already paying over $200 billion in interest each year.

The long run problems are worse. The unfunded liabilities in Social Security and Medicare are over $30 trillion dollars.

Bush’s prescription medicare benefit has put an already bankrupt program even deeper into the hole.
