Well then who was it that raised defense spending to those levels, hmmm?
Who was it that took the money from Social Security and Medcaid to pay for them?
If the asshat fits, Bush and friends should wear it.
Sooo.... if you're looking for the money trail for the SS and Medicare money, just look for the guys from Halliburton that are wiping their asses with toilet paper they made from your tax dollars.
But who said Bush was a racist? I certainly didn't.
The quoted post calims that the problem with Barry Obolshevik's idiotic agenda is about color, when nobody but that poster has brought up ethnicity......Strike 1!!
Actually I'll take this as a strike. I mistakenly saw your reply as being to me. My bad. I still don't think Bush was a racist though.
More than 2/3 of Shrubbie's increases in spending were on the DOMESTIC side of the ledger...Strike 2!!
I won't take this one though, as the defense budget has been ridiculously high for no good reason and has been raised by consecutive Republican administrations for some time now.
Even if 2/3 of the ledger was domestic, which I'm sure does not include the cost of the Iraq War, that still means that Bush upped defense spending by a massive amount, and he definitely took money from the SS budget to do it.
Money has been expropriated for Socialist Insecurity and Medicare for do-dooger giveaway programs for decades now...COUNTING DEMOCRATS...SWING AND A MISS, GRAB SOME BENCH!!
And has been going to unecessary defense spending. Period. And the only people that raised defense spending, which uses 30 times as much of the budget as any "do gooder" programs, as they dipped into SS in the past 30 years were...
Republicans.
I hate to mix metaphors, but check and mate.
The budget was going to explode after 2002 in any case...This was pointed out, with CBO numbers no less, by Ross Perot, times too numerous to number, back in '92....By the same token, the future -and totally mythical- "balanced budget" was also a fait accompli.
The notion that the OASI "trust fund" has only been raided to support militrary spending is as naive as it gets.
Now get back on the bench, where you belong.
