Let’s face it … last night -- and all of these “debates,” for that matter -- are really for two purposes: To generate enthusiasm among your base and appeal to those who are still undecided. 

First, the base …

If you HAVE already decided you are going to vote for Obama, I can recognize (though don’t understand) the reasons: You’re black, you’ve always voted for Democrats, you rely on the government and security is more important to you than freedom, you hate the rich.  Like I said, I don’t understand it but at least you have a reason (albeit asinine).

But the undecided voters have neither reason nor understanding.  What is their problem?

The painful truth is this: The difference between Obama and Romney is so stark that if you haven’t yet made up your mind, you’re either not very bright or not very informed.  I’m sorry … you haven’t been paying attention or you are dumb as a sack of oysters. 

Let’s just take one example: The national debt.  The national debt is an enormous $16 trillion, up from $10.7 trillion when Obama took office.  For those of you who are government educated, that is an increase of about 50% in less than four years.  But it gets worse.  If Obama is re-elected (God help us), his own budget projections predict that our national debt will be over $20 trillion in 2016.  If this is allowed to happen, Barack Obama will have managed to increase our debt by 87%.  That’s just one president.  He will have managed to increase the debt more than all of the presidents from George Washington all the way through (probably) Bill Clinton at that point.

Here’s another way to look at the enormous amount of money (that we don’t have!) being spent by the Obama administration.  From CNSNews:

The federal government added $93,245,605,914.16 to its debt on Oct. 1, the first day of fiscal 2013.

That was more than all the debt the federal government accumulated between July 4, 1776 when the United States declared independence from England and sometime in October 1942, which was ten months after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and the United States entered World War II.

Ok, those numbers are hard to grasp.  They are large.  What does that really mean for my family?  Fine, we can do that too.  Our total national debt is now equivalent to $136,690 for each American household.  Just last year, your share of the national debt increased by $10,855 for each household … just last year!  And Barack Obama’s budget plan says that by the end of his second term, our national debt will be $20 trillion.  What will your share look like then?

And you’re undecided? At this point it is because you are ignorant (you haven’t learned), or you are stupid (you can’t learn) or you are leach, a parasite, a moocher and you don’t give a flying fornication what the national debt is, so long as you keep getting your checks.
