Digging deeper into multiple holes

Posted June 08, 2010 11:00 pm

America's national debt rises $5 billion a day under this administration, with plans to increase it even more, with no guarantee that it will ever be erased. We could all live "high on the hog" if we could just raise our income at others' expense to whatever amount we wish, with no accountability on how we would spend or repay it.

President Obama does not even have "beginner's luck" but is digging himself deeper and deeper in multiple holes. The debacle at the oil well depicts how his administration can't (or won't) "plug the hole" in our border or any of our nation's overwhelming problems.

Perhaps it is only the God America is increasingly abandoning that can help us. He freely offers help if we seek it ... and he can plug the hole we have dug as a nation.
