Harry Reid and friends turned us into Greece

If this doesn't scare the heck out of you, then you've not been paying attention.

The Obama/Reid/Pelosi policies are poised to financially swamp us as a nation.

Consider this excerpt from The Hill on the magnitude of the fiscal irresponsibility demonstrated by Congress and the White House in the last year:

"The CBO projects that Obama's policies would produce deficits averaging nearly $1 trillion for the next decade.

"The deficit would bottom out in 2014 at a level equal to 4.1 percent of gross domestic product, which is higher than the 3 percent level considered to be sustainable by the White House and independent economists. Deficits would again rise after 2014.

"The debt-to-GDP ratio would go from 63 percent this year to 90 percent by 2020, the CBO said. A 'select group of countries,' including Greece, which is facing a fiscal crisis, have debt levels that high, which is 'worrisome,' Elmendorf said. "

Worrisome? Well, no kidding. Harry Reid owes Americans a detailed explanation.
