Gill....you just don't understand...

He's doubling it the way they like...they didn't like Dubya's spending...

Democrats like increased military spending and 0 interest loans to Wall Street? ;)

I get what you're saying, but I don't think you'll find many on the left who agree with the bulk of Obama's spending. The social spending perhaps.

But you could also make a case that Bush tax cuts during war time we're really just another form of deficit spending.
SPOT ON.... I agree 100% with that...

But where is Barry doubling military spending...where I work as a defense contractor, all I see is cuts coming our way... :nod:

I didn't say he was doubling military spending, but isn't escalating the war in Afghanistan going to cost more?

While almost totally eliminating Iraq makes it pretty much a wash...especially since the Afghan "surge" is more a spurt over a long time... :twocents:

Good point, but it's still an expense we can't afford and which should be shared by the rest of the world.

Putter, give the religious an inch and they'll take a mile and ruin the country. Look at what happened during the Bush and Reagan administrations. :coffee:
..and there is your separation of church and state. IMO I just think that kids saying a prayer before a game is something positive. If they are forced to do it is one thing, if they want to it is another.

They can, keep it to themselves. They are encourged by pastors, christian athlete associations and like minded idiots to make it as public a spectacle as possible. :nod: :ohno:

BTW, jesus didn't dig overtly public displays of devotion. Read the bible. :nod:
"Sarah Palin absolutely blew AWAY the audience tonight. If there was any doubt as to whether she was savvy enough, tough enough or smart enough to carry the mantle of Vice President, she put those fears to rest tonight. She took on Barack Obama DIRECTLY on every issue and exposed... She did it with warmth and humor, and came across as the every-person....it's becoming mroe and more clear that she was a genius pick for McCain."

True. I think Al Asad is the only base still open in Iraq. We are slowly pulling out of Iraq. It might be a "wash." I know that in Charleston, it has brought a lot of money because of the huge defense industry. The wars have driven my job and this surge has started to create many jobs here and in a few other states (that have a connection to my project).
