How come there are no military expenditures in the above budget? Out of sight, out of mind? People with viewpoints such as yours are far more dangerous than any terrorists.
1) Topic isnt about wars..
2) That "measly" 670B, according to liberals, doesnt exist.. Remember, Obama CUT taxes right?
3) That "measly $670B, = $6.7 TRILLION, in new taxes over 10 years..
4) The above isnt the "budget", its a list of tax increases...

People who dont read what was being keyed, should refrain from posting..

I bet some victims of 9-11 would disagree with you.

Silly, silly. The Democrat-Socialist party learned it all themselves. Give half of America a free lunch and make the other half pay for it.
