Can they be?

The Democrats Must Be Stopped

There are several reasons why some people still don't understand the fiscal disaster that Barack Obama and the Democratic Party are visiting on our nation. The first is the sheer enormity of the numbers involved. It is hard for anyone really to comprehend the difference between "billion" and "trillion." The second is that we have been hearing about spending increases, deficits, and so on for so long that it isn't immediately obvious why the current crisis is different. We conservatives criticized the Bush administration and the Republican Congress for excessive spending; now we're criticizing the Democrats for the same thing. What's the difference? The third factor, as usual, is deliberate media myopia. The mainstream press could educate voters about what is going on, but prefers not to.

Pictures, as always, are better than words. Like this chart from Investors Business Daily:
