The U.S. debt has increased more than $5 trillion since President Obama was sworn in as President of the United States in 2008! That's a lot of borrowed and/or fake printed money for one President to spend in 42 months.
The entire Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the United States (think of that as our national net worth) is around 15 trillion.
In less than four years, President Obama has borrowed and spent one-third of our national wealth.
Keep in mind that it took the United States 236 years to build a $15-trillion economy; and 42 months for Obama to borrow one-third of our national wealth. And because that money was borrowed, interest on the loan (s), in addition to the loan (s) themselves, have to be paid back over time. As a result, the $5 Trillion Man could be responsible for that $10 trillion sucking sound -- the sound of money being sucked out your, and your children's pockets.
Obama is the $5 Trillion Man:

Obama is bold! He's confident! He boldly and confidently spends our money. He does not appear humble or apologetic. He seems to spend our money without apology and without reluctance. He does not sign those checks with a trembling hand. He signs them in a manner akin to a celebrity giving an autograph -- casual, wrapped up in the moment, looking numb -- as if he does not want to be bothered. "Here's some more money, now scram children." (Tiger Woods appeared to have that attitude when my children asked him for his autograph.)
The gross and casual manner in which Obama spends our money has put a spot-light on what the federal government does with our cash. Hence, it is not surprising more and more people are watching "The Lifestyles of the Hacks and Outrageous."

Because it is difficult for most people to wrap their heads around $5 trillion, and because the size of our federal government is almost literally incomprehensible, the General Services Administration (GSA) scandal (decadent conferences and outrageous spending for entertainment), coupled with the Colombian Secret Service scandal (the boozing and prostitution thing) may become accurate metaphors for President Obama's irresponsible spending, and an indictment of his ideological faith in central, federal, government control and efficacy?
The GSA Employees' Rap Song:

While some of the absurd photos and videos of federal bureaucrats living like mega-rich rap stars and/or Saudi Princes may be out of context -- they provide the American people with a glimpse of a federal bureaucracy where money has no meaning! A glimpse into the Obama ideo-economic world-view.
Does the federal government have accountants -- or are they also doing rap-video spoofs in Vegas? As the United States of America accelerates its debt and deficits, is it not legitimate to ask: "Who the hell is going to pay the bills?"
Does President Obama, in the midst of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, seem casual about his government's massive borrowing and spending? Does he seem oddly comfortable with spending money we don't have?
Obama has to know that most of us know that even if he confiscated all the "rich" people's money, he could only fund the federal government enough to pay for his federal agencies' annual Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer Conference five-year plan (?)
Have you ever had a group dinner with friends or co-workers where one guy orders the most expensive food and drinks, but when the bill comes he stands up and walks away?
Obama has not yet left the restaurant, but he is headed to the bathroom -- talking on his cell-phone, trying to figure out how he can get out of paying his fair-share of the bill. By the time the waiter tells the party-goers they are short on cash, Obama has already left the building! (He had another dinner to go to.) Former Governor Mitt Romney is perfectly positioned to defeat Obama in 2012. Romney wins with these words in a debate:
"It's been your federal government, and its not doing very well. It's broke, its credit rating has been downgraded, it spends money it does not have by borrowing from the Chinese -- and these bills will someday come due. Paying for such reckless spending will necessarily impoverish many more Americans for future generations to come."
Romney should continue in this manner:
"As a Chief Executive, which you are (Obama), I would want my employees to spend less time in the hot-tub, and more time doing their job -- working on behalf of the American people who, by the way, pay their salaries."
"It is time to freeze federal spending, at a minimum, for at least two years, so that we can make sure that public servants are serving; that tax-payer money is not being wasted on frivolous federal bureaucratic junkets and excesses; and to fully investigate the potential systemic dysfunction within the federal government that may encourage the reckless waste of taxpayers' money -- sometimes for no other reason than to have a good party -- courtesy of the American taxpayer!"
"Maybe we should have less hot-tubs for federal bureaucrats, and more jobs for the American people!"
"So I ask the American people, 'Are you better off now than you were five trillion dollars ago?'"
