that is why the image I posted above was helpful in my opinion. The bailouts and stimulus may be large amounts of money right now, but they quickly phase out. While Bush Tax cuts and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are long term commitments and actually get bigger with time.

That's different; spending trillions on the Iraq war is necessary national defense, just ask Fox. Joel - 26/05/2010 05:46:49 PM 833 Views
0.7 Trillion doesn't usually qualify as 'Trillions' Isaac - 26/05/2010 06:16:15 PM 775 Views
I'm not willing to try parsing how much DoD spending was and wasn't Iraq just now. Joel - 26/05/2010 06:27:50 PM 744 Views
You can knock off the "Faux News" stuff, makes you sound like you've been hanging at Daily Kos Isaac - 26/05/2010 07:06:16 PM 806 Views
umm ok. Aisha - 26/05/2010 07:26:02 PM 841 Views
A Fox News person was involved in writing the article so it sent him into a tissy fit random thoughts - 26/05/2010 10:56:35 PM 603 Views

ok now you are just making stuff up random thoughts - 27/05/2010 08:11:39 PM 1055 Views
This would sound better if you didn't say yourself the support was mostly fake Isaac - 28/05/2010 01:05:44 PM 803 Views

you are so full of crap random thoughts - 26/05/2010 05:59:47 PM 656 Views
Oh, they weren't silent; they were quite vocal in their endorsement of the Iraq war. Joel - 26/05/2010 06:03:51 PM 895 Views
more ranting doesn't support your argument random thoughts - 26/05/2010 06:17:22 PM 817 Views
I'll respond to the coherent part of that. Joel - 26/05/2010 06:30:07 PM 829 Views
I wish ... Nate - 26/05/2010 06:57:30 PM 813 Views
Is the NYT any better pieces slandering McCain and his wife before an election? random thoughts - 26/05/2010 07:16:58 PM 673 Views
I don't know those articles specifically. Nate - 26/05/2010 08:27:44 PM 733 Views
So my repeated use of "M$" in moondogs thread only makes things worse? Joel - 27/05/2010 03:35:06 PM 724 Views
These days I typically just say, "Fox. " Joel - 27/05/2010 03:48:40 PM 836 Views
You mean you will repsond to part that you like and ignore the part you don't because of a typo random thoughts - 26/05/2010 07:18:03 PM 745 Views
Actually, I think it was a pretty thorough response. Joel - 27/05/2010 03:57:55 PM 832 Views
then let me make is simpler random thoughts - 27/05/2010 07:23:19 PM 820 Views

commas are so over rated random thoughts - 26/05/2010 10:50:57 PM 634 Views
The second paragraph is very hard to follow unless you already have an idea what he's going to say. Joel - 27/05/2010 03:43:09 PM 755 Views
yes the good republicans spent a lot of money so democrats should spend even more argument random thoughts - 26/05/2010 05:52:57 PM 590 Views
Well, I'll certainly agree that if it's bad, it's bad whoever's doing it. Joel - 26/05/2010 06:00:20 PM 797 Views
you are attacking Fox News becuase you object to opposing views being expressed random thoughts - 26/05/2010 06:27:29 PM 800 Views
Not at all; I just expect a little consistency. Joel - 26/05/2010 06:40:07 PM 826 Views
then why not show some and admit that all the news agency were backing the war random thoughts - 26/05/2010 07:10:57 PM 805 Views
Yes, they were; most of them stopped: One of them didn't. Joel - 27/05/2010 03:08:34 PM 778 Views
so the other media outlets get a pass because the supported losing a war they supported starting? random thoughts - 27/05/2010 06:39:21 PM 642 Views
We were heading in the wrong direction already, but Obama/Dems put the pedal to the floor... trzaska2000 - 26/05/2010 06:41:48 PM 597 Views
I don't mean to defend all of the spending that Obama and Congress have done since he's in power... Legolas - 26/05/2010 09:29:38 PM 778 Views
They did push the pedal further down even if they didn't start it random thoughts - 26/05/2010 10:46:38 PM 815 Views
Fair enough, I don't disagree with any of that. Legolas - 26/05/2010 10:53:32 PM 677 Views
I find this image to describe the deficits pretty useful Roland00 - 27/05/2010 01:56:29 AM 600 Views
Here is the problem with this kind of reporting... Dannymac - 27/05/2010 07:12:34 AM 734 Views
Correct Roland00 - 27/05/2010 02:11:47 PM 600 Views
The problem with that kind of logic is it is wrong random thoughts - 27/05/2010 02:19:37 PM 634 Views
Yes, that would be wrong. Dannymac - 27/05/2010 03:35:30 PM 646 Views
Based on Obama's budget, he will add more to the debt over the next 10 years..... trzaska2000 - 27/05/2010 04:10:45 PM 564 Views
Increasing the debt is a problem, yes. Dannymac - 27/05/2010 07:55:04 PM 939 Views
At least we agree that you are wrong because that is what you said random thoughts - 27/05/2010 06:50:43 PM 586 Views
And where does the rest of the money come from? Dannymac - 27/05/2010 08:12:31 PM 731 Views
No, that's for the entire Department of Defense. Legolas - 27/05/2010 08:25:28 PM 630 Views
using those numbers the war appears to be about half a drop in the bucket *NM* random thoughts - 27/05/2010 08:37:31 PM 326 Views
I wouldn't call it a drop in the bucket... Legolas - 27/05/2010 09:03:43 PM 847 Views
