CBS Says of Barack Obama … “It’s the most rapid increase in the debt under any U.S. president”

Hey America, how’s that Obama “Hopey, Changey” stuff working out for you? A historic election indeed …

Barack Obama was elected in 2008 in a historic election. Obama later made history and became the first president ever to hold the presidency during a downgrade of the American Triple A credit rating. Guess what, he has yet another historic moment to add to his resume. According to CBS News, the Treasury Department reports that the national debt has now increased $4 trillion on President Barack Obama’s Presidency.Interesting enough, Obama’s historical events cause the US economy to act hysterically.

The debt was $10.626 trillion on the day Mr. Obama took office. The latest calculation from Treasury shows the debt has now hit $14.639 trillion.

It’s the most rapid increase in the debt under any U.S. president.

The national debt increased $4.9 trillion during the eight-year presidency of George W. Bush. The debt now is rising at a pace to surpass that amount during Mr. Obama’s four-year term.

As Doug Ross says, when Obama has lost CBS, you know you have problems. How much longer is the public going to take the repeated excuses of blaming others? It does not look like much longer as Obama’s job approval ratings have hit an all-time low. Two pieces of information for Obama. One, when you beg people to vote for you for a job that no one twisted your arm or forces you to run for when you knew the difficulties that you faced, you don’t then blame others when your policies are a complete and total failure. Two, if you are complaining about what you inherited, imagine what the next President is going to inherit from your four years.

2012 cannot come fast enough and it is frightening that this president has another year and a half to cause more damage.

UPDATE I: New national debt data: It’s growing about $3 million a minute, even during his vacation.

Updated numbers for the national debt are just out: It’s now $14,639,000,000,000.

When Barack Obama took the oath of office twice on Jan. 20, 2009, CBS’ amazing number cruncher Mark Knoller reports, the national debt was $10,626,000,000,000.

That means the debt that our federal government owes a whole lot of somebodies including China has increased $4,247,000,000,000 in just 945 days. That’s the fastest increase under any president ever.

Wisconsin Republican Congressman Paul Ryan Says He Wil Not Run for President in 2012

Its official, after many months of speculation, US Representative Paul Ryan (WI-R) has decided that he will not run for President in 2012. With so many others dipping their toe in the political GOP Presidential field but not yet committing like former Alaska Gov.  Sarah Palin, former NY Gov. George Pataki, NJ Gov. Chris Christie, the fiscal conservative Ryan has decided not to run, this time.

Wisconsin congressman Paul Ryan has decided for a final time that he will not run for president in 2012, THE WEEKLY STANDARD has learned. Ryan, who began seriously considering a bid in late May after Indiana governor Mitch Daniels took himself out of the race, had consulted with top Republicans, including Karl Rove and Frank Luntz, as he contemplated his political future. And though many of those he talked with told him he would be a viable candidate in such a fluid race, even as a late entry, Ryan ultimately decided to continue his focus on debt and entitlement reform as chairman of the House Budget Committee

However, the 41 year old Paul Ryan has his entire political career ahead of him. He is is economic and debt cutting expert of the GOP who had the courage to put forth a plan and show leadership to take paying down the debt head on. Something that even the POTUS has not done. I am a fan of Paul Ryan and look for him to run for President in the not too distant future. However, I tend to think, as does the Lonely Conservative, that Ryan’s best place for the GOP and the USA is in the House. This is a good call on Ryan’s part, he has some unfinished business with America’s long term debt burden and after the 2012 election, his efforts to make the US fiscally responsible will make him a star.

For Ryan, being president has never been a lifelong ambition. His consideration of a presidential bid came not because of any desire to be president and, in many respects, came in spite of his inclinations against one. Ryan has hoped that he might play the role of Jack Kemp to the next Ronald Reagan.

Let’s just say this … the GOP stable of future Presidential candidates is packed. The list includes, Paul Ryan, Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Nikki Haley – Governor of South Carolina,  and US Senator Marco Rubio, FL are the future of the GOP. And what a future.

The Golfer in Chief: Barack Obama Skips the 8th Hole to Avoid TV Cameras & Photographers on Martha’s Vineyard

GOLFING TRANSPARENCY … HOW PRESIDENTIAL

Barack Obama’s White House minions have defended his vacation to Martha’s Vineyard, even as millions of Americans are out of work, out of their homes and cannot vacation. WH spokesperson Jay Carney went so far to say, that the President is never really on a vacation.Really? Just curious, why did Obama feel the need to avoid cameras of him golfing … well, most at least, as he could not avoid them all.

If that is true and Obama thinks there is nothing wrong with taking a vacation as the US sinks into what looks like a double dip recession, why did Obama feel the need to skip the 8th hole during his round of golf to avoid TV cameras and photographers? However, Obama certainly had no issue with photographers taking pics of him, making him look presidential and appearing to do work while living it up for the third year in a row on vacation on Martha’s Vineyard.

However, the Boston Globe reported that when Obama [on Friday] approached “the eighth tee in a golf cart with friend and frequent golfing buddy Eric Whitaker,” he “noticed three TV cameras and a Globe photographer across the street. Rather than stop and be photographed teeing off, the president skipped the hole.”

So, while the White House has been releasing photos showing the vacationing President in a serious frame of mind – like the photograph it released on Friday, showing a solemn-faced Obama in discussion with his counterterrorism adviser, …

Obviously, Obama, his staff and his minions think that the President playing golf is the wrong image. Otherwise they would not mind pics and video being taken. If that is the case, they question that needs to be asked is … WHY DOES HE CONTINUE TO DO IT!!! Obama knoes its wrong, but does it anyhow, nice.

Barack Obama wants to avoid pics of him golfing as Americans struggle and the economy continues to flounder … but he certainly has no problem using the image of dead US Navy Seals to his political advantage after Obama stated there would be no media or photo-ops.  Is it any wonder why Obama’s job approval rating has plummeted to an all-time low. But don’t worry America, he is so concerned with the US economy that he will give yet another speech, after his more important vacation is done.

Robyn Gardner Missing in Aruba … New Witness Disputes Gary Giordano’s Claims that they Went Snorkeling Day She Disappeared

Robyn Gardner has been missing in Aruba since August 2, 2011. Her travel companion Gary Giordano’s told Aruba police that she went missing while they were snorkeling near Baby Beach.  However, according to the LE Giordano’s stories have been inconsistent. Giordano is presently being held in an Aruba jail as a suspect in the disappearance of Robyn Gardner.

According to a new witness who has come forward, they dispute the story that Gary Giordano has told regarding the fact that the two went snorkeling. The witness says that he was fishing the day that Giordano claims that he and Gardner were snorkeling. He states that the two walked on the beach, but never went into the water.

The witness says he was fishing on a beach on that day and he saw the two take a walk along the reef around 4 p.m., but they never went in the water.

A short time later, the couple drove away and he never saw either of them again, the witness says.

“If this witness ends up being accurate and correct as to locations of both Mr. Giordano and Ms. Gardner, it’s yet another piece of evidence that’s inconsistent with his story,” said ABC News consultant Brad Garrett, a former FBI agent.
