"Nothing to Show for US Debt": (D) Senator

Yah, well, he's honest NOW. Too bad he voted for all this crap, eh?

Michael Bennet, D-Colo,at a town hall meeting in Greeley last Saturday, Aug 21 said we had nothing to show for the debt incurred by the stimulus package and other expenditures calling the recession the worst since the Great Depression. [...]

Regarding spending during his time in office he said, “We have managed to acquire $13 trillion of debt on our balance sheet” and, “in my view we have nothing to show for it.” Speaking of the debt, he said our debt almost equals the economy. Regarding the current job situation, Bennet said the situation has been dire for over a decade saying, “We have created no net new jobs in the United States since 1998” which were the last two years of the Clinton administration.

Don't talk to me about Bush. I denounced his spending, too, although he did have a (D) Congress to deal with in his last 2 years.
