Democrats campaigned on two things: the Iraq War and Republicans were spending too much money.
Well, Petraeus, the general Bush put in charge, won the war in Iraq and Obama thankfully has not brought our troops home before the fragile Iraqi democracy is ready to stand against its enemies without our help. So let’s all give a round of applause to President Bush’s leadership that gained us a critical democratic ally in the middle of the volatile Middle East.
As for spending, yeah, the dirtbags in charge of both parties have been passing out the pork for years and the GOP did little to stop the red ink. But look what happened when Democrats took over Congress after railing about Republican spending. The rate of over-spending immediately INCREASED. And once they got hold of the White House, all bets were off.
Democrat spending managed to increase our nation debt to GDP by 45% in just FOUR YEARS!
The reason S&P reduced our national credit rating (for the first time since Pearl Harbor) is because our national debt is now nearly 100% of our GDP. If you owed as much as you earn in a year, you couldn’t get a loan either.

OBAMA TEAM TURNS ITS FOCUS TO TOUGH RE-ELECTION FIGHT
This clown will have over a billion dollars to spend on attack ads.He won’t need to pay to advertise himself–the media whores will do that for him for free.
I’m concerned a lot of us who had high hopes after we retook the House last year are getting discouraged that so many of them are falling in line with the establishment pubs afraid of being blamed for everything the left perpetrates and want to look ‘reasonable’ in a town not known for reason.If they betray us,we have nowhere else to go.

UK CONSIDERING REPLACING THANKSGIVING TURKEY WITH CANADA GOOSE
I included this link as an excuse to tell you of some advice an old goose hunter gave me on how to properly cook a Canada goose.(They’re not called Canadian geese.)
1.clean goose properly
2.fill body cavity with aromatic vegetables and herbs
Maybe it’s the right thing to do,but I’m still too dumb to see how giving this buttmunch $2.4T to spend now and promise future cuts that we all know will never come seems like peeing on a 5-alarm fire.
C’MON,REPUBLICANS,BE BIPARTISAN.ABANDON YOUR PRINCIPLES AND GO ALONG TO GET ALONG.IN THE END,I’LL TAKE YOUR WORK AND CRAWL OUT FROM UNDER MY DESK AND CLAIM SOLE CREDIT FOR GETTING THINGS DONE.REMEMBER,”I WON.”
