    I wanna see this in 1$ bills. I'm guessing it would be 86 times bigger if not more.

    Thank you Barack Obama and all your Dumb-o-crat (and some Repube-ican) buddies in Congress who are totally SCREWING UP MY COUNTRY! Every week a new bill is signed that demands more and more of these cubes of money that haven't been printed yet. My unborn grandchildren have already been bankrupted. They'll be so thrilled when they find out.

    @orbitcorbett: Um, Obama has been in office for about 50 days, how is this his fault? Democrats have been in power for less than 3 years. So since the start of this slide (aka Reagan) we've had 4 Republican Presidents, and a stretch of 6 years under W where Republicans have had COMPLETE control, which they used to turn the largest surplus this country has ever seen, into the largest deficit the WORLD has ever seen. And you think this is Obamas fault?


    And you do realize that this isn't even equivalent to the deficit spending we did to get us out of the great depression. So if your grandchildren will be pissed at anyone, it will be the conservatives who pissed away their natural resources, bankrupted them because of Iraq (which is still more expensive than the surplus), and turned them into drooling morons by excessive interbreeding.


    Unless you were satirizing the short sighted, idiotic, uneducated, ditto head neo-con trolls that frequent these boards, and amuse us to no end with their goldfish like memory. In that case, well played.

    @Zombie_Belvedere: He referred to them as "Dumb-o-crat"s and "Repube-ican"s. You're really going to pay attention to anything he has to say after that?

    Is it bad that my first though was:


    "Gee, I would love to get a monster truck and shred all of those neat stacks of money."
