“We spent $22 trillion and what do we have to show for it?

A whole bunch of Democrats!!”

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Which has been the point all along.

The GOP no longer exists. What you call the “GOPe” I call the Democrat II party because that’s exactly what it is. We are one party country now with one party hellbent on destroying the country and supporting its enemies and another segment of the party making pretend it opposes it. That is exactly why we need a NEW party and nothing seems to be happening with that even though we are moving closer and closer to 2016. Without one single solitary doubt, unless a new party is formed and a TRUE conservative nominated by that party, we will be seeing either President Hillary or President Elizabeth Warren in 2017, of even worse a Hillary/Warren ticket in the WH which would be like nuking the Titanic as it’s sinking. This country will be absolutely obliterated if it isn’t already by then.

I hope they piss it away...who wants them in charge? Last time they were it was a disaster (2004-2007).

Imagine what we average Americans could've done with that 22 trillion of our's that the government appropriated. How many kids educated; how many inventions, jobs and charities could that money have funded.

I was just thinking about that. It's staggering.
