Typical democrat, Obama is, with just a twist!
Obama is not just your run of the mill
Tax and Spend
Tax and Spend
democrat who is expanding the size of the Federal Bureaucracy, appointing an Orc - Army of degenerates, Communists and abortion-ophiles as unaccountable Uruk-hai Czars!

Sauron and his henchmen are on the verge of destroying Middle Earth!

The Constitution which you have "sworn to uphold and defend" can be amended through a process, sir!
It is NOT by Executive Order or Bureaucratic fiat!

Porkulus, Stimulus, Earmarks or whatever it's called is just another euphemism for Tax and Spend.
Isn't there another way to get the economy moving that doesn't add more tax burden on the American people and further increase the National Debt?

??? Maybe Cut Spending on Federal programs???
Wow, that would be a novel idea... and it just might work!

"Tax and spend" is a really good idea compared to "put it on American Express and we'll let the grandkids pay it off".

That's where the Bush "tax cuts" came from - borrowed money.

Well we haven't gotten the bill for all that spending just yet. Fear not, it's on the tab.

I can hear the liberals crying now. "Bush! It must have been Bush! How can we pin these taxes, inflation, debt, deficit on Bush?!"

Tax and spend...otherwise known as responsible 'pay as you go' just like every single one of us have to do everyday.

Or, just spend, and put less taxes on the uber-elitists who take the money and run...and screw the rest of us everyday normal American's.

Just like his old liquor days....just put it on the tab!

Barkeep!

All my life I've been waiting for the government that doesn't tax and spend. It seems that I'll die waiting.
Maybe we should have a monarchy - they take in money but spend it all on themselves to build elegant palaces and to fund wars.

that is the normal way of doing things in washington dc, democrats tax and spend, and republican borrow and spend.

both ways that is happening is wrong and both parties should be abolished.

Let's follow cause and effect, shall we?

Under Republican White House:
Democrats cry that useless social programs that benefit democrat voters need more money,
Republicans wanting to seem bipartisan go along (getting no credit usually and all of the blame and none of the votes)
Win-win for the democrats, Lose-lose for the republicans
Republican president cuts taxes
which stimulates the economy (everybody working - everybody paying taxes)
Government collects more tax dollars
thus being able to fund the useless ever-expanding social programs that benefit democrat constituents.

Under Democrat White House:
Democrats cry that useless social programs that benefit democrat voters need more money,
Republicans cry "how are we going to pay for them"?!?
Democrats force the funding thru behind closed doors or otherwise,
Win-win for the democrats, Lose-lose for the republicans
Democrat president raises taxes to pay for uneeded programs
which slows down the economy (people lose jobs / laid off - less people paying taxes)
Government collects less taxes and has to print more money to pay for the useless social programs that benefit democrat voters
thus paying for the programs with inflated dollars where everybody loses except those democrat voters benefitting from the useless programs (cause they're not working anyway)

It's much simpler when you understand cause and effect!
