The deficit spiraled out of control with fighting 2 wars.

Where's the jobs these tax breaks were supposed to provide? IMO, a conservative is anything other than conservative. Why were you republicans/conservatives not screaming and pounding on the floor when "your man" was OUT OF CONTROL?
We have had two out of control Idiots-in -Chief in a row. There will be consequences if we don't reverse course.

What, exactly, has Obama bought when he went out on this spending spree that you accuse him of?

That's what we'd all like to know. All we're seeing is the bill. We now have a lot of debt and nothing to show for it. I'd love for someone to explain just what he bought with it.

I agree. This is following folly with folly only it's with folly again because obama was in office long enough to show he doesn't have our best interest at heart or he's just stupid. I'm not sure which is worse. Yet they voted him in again... it just boggles the mind.

The bill includes two unfunded wars that are now coming due. Good thing we got rid of all those WMD.

No, he wants to go over. He just wants to blame the republicans. Then he'll go on a spending spree.

Interesting concept there. Serve for free and get paid when the tax payers assess what you did and pay you accordingly. I wonder how much obama would get if we voted on his pay when his term is done? (can that pay be negative???)
