I'm sorry, I thought we were discussing how the only reason Bush didn't cut spending was because of the necessities of war. My bad.
Next time I'll remember that in Slave-speak, "Bush is only not cutting spending because he's a strong wartime leader and we're at war" really means "oh yeah, well the Dems want to raise spending too."
That way, I'll know that, instead of saying "bullshit, most of the spending increases are not related to the war" that I should really say "Funny how the Dems were willing to forego tax cuts in order to pay for the program they wanted."
I'll take "tax and spend" over "borrow and spend" any day.

Funny, in that I've repeatedly said that Bush can run up deficits all year long if its ear-marked for defense spending. And in return, he SHOULD be cutting every fucking pork project at every turn. Especially pet spending projects near and dear to every liberal's heart. That he doesn't upsets me to no end.
That the Democrats threaten to spend even more - and to take more money out of my already lean pockets to do so - makes me violently ill.
