Still Pelosi is a hag.
But sending checks to dead people and criminals in jail doesn't generate too much economic activity does it ?

I'm guessing the same way Republicans can have two unfunded wars and cut taxes.....they ignore reality.

I was not making a political statement only clarifying the intention of her comment.

Can you show me where the Republicans budgeted for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq? They were seperate bills from the budget last I knew. They still become part of the national debt though.

Can you produce congressional budgets that prove otherwise from 2002-2006?

Ummm it is called the defense budget.

By the way here it is for 2007 you can Google the other years.

Bush signs $100 billion Iraq war funding bill. 26/05/2007. ABC News Online (http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200705/s1934069.htm - broken link)

So they were FUNDED, you claimed they were UNFUNDED by the Republicans care to produce any proof?

Can the Dems shoot themselves in the foot any worse?
We need $8 trillion in food stamps to wipe out the national debt.
