“Already in just 2 years, an 84 percent increase in enacted spending, 84 percent, a $1.2 trillion stimulus bill that has us mired in 10 percent unemployment, a $450 billion omnibus bill, another $400 billion omnibus bill. The explosion of spending is unprecedented in our Nation's history. And that leads us to the vote that is before us today. Increase the debt limit for the third time in 12 months; increase it another $1.9 trillion, our Democratic colleagues say, so that we can increase the burden per household $16,214. Where will it all end? And now, just this week, we hear from the President of the United States: we haven't spent enough. Let's spend some more. Let's propose a budget that will simply triple--triple--the national debt over 10 years. Madam Speaker, the American people are tired of the spending, tired of the debt, tired of the deficits, and certainly tired of the bailouts.”
