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 740 Views
0.7 Trillion doesn't usually qualify as 'Trillions' Isaac - 26/05/2010 06:16:15 PM 685 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 649 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 704 Views
umm ok. Aisha - 26/05/2010 07:26:02 PM 756 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 509 Views

ok now you are just making stuff up random thoughts - 27/05/2010 08:11:39 PM 969 Views
This would sound better if you didn't say yourself the support was mostly fake Isaac - 28/05/2010 01:05:44 PM 710 Views

you are so full of crap random thoughts - 26/05/2010 05:59:47 PM 562 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 805 Views
more ranting doesn't support your argument random thoughts - 26/05/2010 06:17:22 PM 721 Views

I wish ... Nate - 26/05/2010 06:57:30 PM 708 Views
Is the NYT any better pieces slandering McCain and his wife before an election? random thoughts - 26/05/2010 07:16:58 PM 573 Views
I don't know those articles specifically. Nate - 26/05/2010 08:27:44 PM 643 Views
So my repeated use of "M$" in moondogs thread only makes things worse? Joel - 27/05/2010 03:35:06 PM 640 Views
These days I typically just say, "Fox. " Joel - 27/05/2010 03:48:40 PM 746 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 679 Views
Actually, I think it was a pretty thorough response. Joel - 27/05/2010 03:57:55 PM 722 Views
then let me make is simpler random thoughts - 27/05/2010 07:23:19 PM 730 Views

commas are so over rated random thoughts - 26/05/2010 10:50:57 PM 543 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 652 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 501 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 709 Views
you are attacking Fox News becuase you object to opposing views being expressed random thoughts - 26/05/2010 06:27:29 PM 710 Views
Not at all; I just expect a little consistency. Joel - 26/05/2010 06:40:07 PM 733 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 711 Views
Yes, they were; most of them stopped: One of them didn't. Joel - 27/05/2010 03:08:34 PM 681 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 556 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 496 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 684 Views
They did push the pedal further down even if they didn't start it random thoughts - 26/05/2010 10:46:38 PM 720 Views
Fair enough, I don't disagree with any of that. Legolas - 26/05/2010 10:53:32 PM 572 Views
I find this image to describe the deficits pretty useful Roland00 - 27/05/2010 01:56:29 AM 512 Views
Here is the problem with this kind of reporting... Dannymac - 27/05/2010 07:12:34 AM 646 Views
Correct Roland00 - 27/05/2010 02:11:47 PM 509 Views
The problem with that kind of logic is it is wrong random thoughts - 27/05/2010 02:19:37 PM 531 Views
Yes, that would be wrong. Dannymac - 27/05/2010 03:35:30 PM 549 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 466 Views
Increasing the debt is a problem, yes. Dannymac - 27/05/2010 07:55:04 PM 840 Views
At least we agree that you are wrong because that is what you said random thoughts - 27/05/2010 06:50:43 PM 498 Views
And where does the rest of the money come from? Dannymac - 27/05/2010 08:12:31 PM 638 Views
No, that's for the entire Department of Defense. Legolas - 27/05/2010 08:25:28 PM 540 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 289 Views
I wouldn't call it a drop in the bucket... Legolas - 27/05/2010 09:03:43 PM 750 Views
