The need to maintain spending is why we are still wasting men and money protecting the petroleum monopolies access to resources in Afghanistan, Iraq and , now Libya. If the Western oil companies lost that access to the petroleum reserves their stock prices would tank (as they should) and this recession would turn into a worldwide depression.

Bullpucky. Democrats could care less about the "wealth transfer" that precipitated the recession. And home ownership? Not even on their radar. All they care about are social entitlements, which equals an unfunded mandate in the $60 Trillion dollar range. This, more than any military action anywhere in the world, is fiscally dangerous to the United States, yet Democrats fail to address the issue.
I'd emplore you to dig deeper instead of focusing like a laser on wars that have contributed relatively little to the fiscal morass we are in.
Entitlements are the issue. Democrats absolutely refuse to address the elephant in the room, and you know it. Why do you insist on giving them a free pass?
