defeat the debt

Name of an AstroTurf entity created by Berman & Co.. Pretends to be a grass movement; asks for donations. Website basically explains that taxes on the rich are too high and can't be raised (statistics are wrong). Video ads claim that the health care reform bill will increase the deficit (in contradiction to the Congressional Budget Office estimate, that it will reduce the deficit).

"Defeat the Debt" is part of an anti-labor, anti-poor, anti-consumer, anti-U.S. front group that is wholly motivated by money and hatred of the working class.
So now, everywhere you go you see ads for "Defeat the Debt." What's that all about?

Oh, it's basically a bunch of rich folks trying to pull the same bullshit they've used since 1981, destroying education and infrastructure, leaving poor children to rot in homeless shelters, and terrorize workers so they'll tolerate any cruelty the managers want to inflict.

Something that was 5.6 trillion when Bush took over and now is 12.3 when Obama gets his turn. Was ok to add 6.7 trilion with Bush but now... what to do???

Dank Debt

It's a debt you have to someone because they let you smoke a bunch of their weed and now you have to pay them back with your own.
Dave and Carlos are hanging out on a warm summer's night. David turns to Carlos and whispers seductively into Carlos' nervous ear, "May I smoke some of your weed, my good ol' friend". Carlos turning away in anger thought to himself, "Fuck I have a dank debt to him. He let me smoke all of his dad's weed". Carlos turns back to Dave and says reluctantly, "I guess you can have some". With a look of shame, Carlos handed him his dank and a tear almost fell out of his eyes. Almost because Mary Jane dried his eyes out.
