Washington (AP) The Treasury Department says the national debt has hit 9 trillion dollars for the first time.When Ronald Reagan took office in 1981 the national debt was less that $1 trillion. Reagan and the two Bushes have left us with the other $8 trillion.
Last month, Congress passed and George Bush signed into law an increase in the government's borrowing ceiling to more than 9.81 trillion dollars. It was the fifth debt limit increase since Bush took office.
There's nothing 'conservative' about republicans, people. Wake up!
