Senate Passes $2.8 Trillion 2007 Budget
The Senate on Thursday passed an election-year budget plan forsaking President Bush's tax cuts and Medicare curbs, hours after lifting the ceiling on the national debt to $9 trillion.

NATIONAL DEBT $9,000,000,000,000

That's right folks nine TRILLION dollars. That's $9,000,000,000,000. Our country is NINE TRILLION dollars in debt!!!! That's roughly $30,000 for every man, woman, and child in this country.

Do we need ANY further proof that it's time for some regime change in this country?

1. Wheeee! Good thing it's not those tax-and-spend liberals in there!
Or else we'd have a debt surplus!

3. This needs to be a central theme in the November elections.
Republicans did this , not Democrats. Democrats voted against it.
