Umm, ok. or let's stop the Health care overhaul and cut discretionary spending, and that should put us back in the black. And the 3 card monte continues.

It's not as simple as "get everything outta Iraq" or "roll back Health care". But politician are kings of manipulation and some simpleton's like to make broad sweeping statements disregarding the realities of threats to america, or uninsured americans, or many others complex topics, and then blame the opposing party. There are solutions, but it starts by taking off the blinders that hate and dogma put on you.

Allow me to refresh your memeory:
Threats to America = 300 billion dollar no bid contracts to Halliburton. (200,000 dollars a year to wash dishes, which branch of our armed forces makes 200,000 a year) If the money ain't going to the troops it's a waste.

Uninsured Americans = socialism - We all pay for their health care if we leave things at it's status quo we pay so what' with the fake outrage?

Clinton = surplus. Bush = "I need 786 billion dollars". This does not take a genius.

Re: Obama's Budget Cuts

Let's be honest -- both sides of the aisle spend like dogs. While they have different priorities, they both spend a lot of money. I'm really hoping we get a true fiscal conservative running. My views are very liberal, but I'm very conservative when it comes to spending. We need to get our bank right and live within our means. They tell the common Joe to live within their means, yet the country throws hundreds of millions of dollars around that they don't have.

Well we had to spend when everybody getting laid off. We don't let the average Joe go homeless as we bailout the banks. The function of banks in a capitalist society makes the banks damn near apart of the government nayway.

You really have no clue what a term like socialism means, or how our political system works. What's sad to me is that you are so fervent in your conviction that it is only the Republican/Bush party that you won't listen to other ideas.
