Wait Bush spends America's money wisely?
"They are working to bring back the failed tax-and-spend policies of the past," he said in his weekly radio address. "Democrats are failing in their responsibility to make tough decisions and spend the people's money wisely."

2. Well to Bush
"spend the peoples' money wisely" = "give it to my buddies in big bidness"

5. "They are working to bring back the failed tax-and-spend policies of the past,"
"When we are hell bent on maintaining our loot-and-waste policies of the present with absolutely no oversight whasoever indefinitely. "

This "tax and spend moniker" is such BS when that's simply what most governments do.

6. I just read after new figures released America is spending about $5000 a second on Iraq alone.
I suppose we could get rid of our money faster if we really wanted though am not sure how. It has not benefited Americans in any way what-so-ever. Myabe if they just lit a match to it....:shrug: Åt least we would get to see a pretty fire...

7. I called it a while ago--their next tact is going to be taxes.
Time for our side to call them on the budget and spend and borrow administration policies.

I remember when we had a surplus--it wasn't that very long ago, either.

8. As opposed to "borrow and spend"?
Why not let China and Japan own us completely? Then we won't have to worry about the budget at all!

9. Time for Congress to send in a balanced budget. Spend only what they take in cut first
from the Military and Mercenary appropriations. Then cut the OIL allowances and the cut the Agricultural disbursements that go to Corporations.

Then what will the REpigs say?
