		<description>TB,

My point is not misleading and your math is not accurate.

Obama has spent $0.5 trillion with the omnibus spending bill, $1 trillion with Porkulus and $3.5 trillion for the annual federal budget.

That&#039;s $5 trillion in spending that we know about.  As for the unseen costs, who knows how many trillions that amounts to?

There is some veracity to what you say about the spending of the Bush administration.  That, too, was bloated and obscene.  I disagree with that level of government spending as much as I do with this - it is too much.

As I&#039;m sure you know, US administrations have just about never been free of national debt.

Bush, however, left a deficit of $400 billion when he turned over to Obama.  The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office now estimates that Obama will increase the deficit to $1.8 trillion this year, quadrupling the sum he inherited.

Bush spent far too much and Obama is proving to be even worse.

Do you not think that the federal budget is large enough already?</description>

		<description>Bush spent 21 Trillion over 8 years with a total of 17 Trillion coming in. For all the math majors out there, that&#039;s a $4 trillion deficit.

Although Obama has put up nearly 2.5 Trillion at this point, as we should all be aware, we do not know what deficit he&#039;ll have. Your rants and raves about spending don&#039;t go on deaf ears, but your point is misleading and you know it.

In Obama&#039;s defense, he has at least attempted to invest it back in the economy rather than in the military. we can argue all day about this but I thought I&#039;d mention it to stir the pot a bit.

Obama walked into the presidency hurting from the recession and is doing what he thinks best to resolve it. You may disagree, as half the country did while Bush was working, but foolhardy to imply that any other answer offered would be without consequences...</description>
