We really need to fire all of Con-Gress and the Senate

And start new.

I got this from my buddy Phil;

This cuts thru all the political doublespeak we get.

It puts it into a much better perspective.

Lesson #1:

* U.S. Tax revenue: $2,170,000,000,000

* Fed budget: $3,820,000,000,000

* New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000

* National debt: $14,271,000,000,000

* Recent budget cuts: $ 38,500,000,000

Let's now remove 8 zeros and pretend it's a household budget:

* Annual family income: $21,700

* Money the family spent: $38,200

* New debt on the credit card: $16,500

* Outstanding balance on the credit card: $142,710

* Total budget cuts so far: $3.85

Got It ?????

OK now Lesson # 2: Here's
 another way to look at the Debt Ceiling:

Let's say . . . You come home from work and find there has been a sewer backup in

your neighborhood and your home has sewage all the way up to your ceilings.

What do you think you should do ? ? ?

Raise the ceilings . . . or pump out the sewage?
