New RNC ad hits Obama for increasing the debt to $16 trillion

September 4, 2012

  Today the national debt passed the $16 trillion mark and Republicans wasted little time in releasing an ad on this issue. This ad is effective because it uses Barack Obama’s own words against him. Remember when Barack Obama called President Bush irresponsible and unpatriotic for letting the debt increase to $9 trillion? If raising the debt to $9 trillion makes a president unpatriotic, what  does raising it to $16 trillion make a president? And do you remember when Barack Obama promised to cut the deficit he inherited in half? I do, and so do the Republicans:

    I think he meant to say Bush was unpatriotic for only raising the debt to 9 B’s, chump change in the hood.

    “So grandfather it was Bush who spent my generation’s inheritance?’ ‘ No grandson, It was Obama all along. Bush was just a pimp, he could never outfought the right wingers.”

      Yeah, he was upset Bush didn’t raise it more, that just might be his spin moving forward.
