War profits | 7:29 a.m. Nov. 8, 2009

Yes, the trillions we've spent on war have made many U.S. war suppliers and foreign countries richer, and it has provided jobs for our military families. In turn, they've spent their money in Iraq and Afganistan helping to boost their economies. America has been a god-sent to the Mideast eocnomies!

But think if those trillions had been spent on domestic programs instead to rebuild America's infrastrature, such as roads or power lines or bridges! Imagine how that could have benefited the American people instead!

Bush spending? | 7:55 a.m. Nov. 8, 2009

I guess all the billions of waste and fraud during the bushco years didn't bother you at all.

Obama will get this country back to it's pre-bush greatness!

Lib nutcakes, who are seriously infected with Bush durangement syndrome, can't give a response to this issue without blaming Bush. President Hussien is going to triple or quadriple any deficet that Bush ever dreamed of. This is just the tool they use to distract from the fact they like to tax and spend big time.
