Last night I saw Bush on TV and he said that we should be afraid of Democrats because they want more government. ( I know it aint an exact quote but it was the gist, sue me, my facts are at least as straight as FNC's where I saw it.)
So, I started thinking Bush's latest budget was what 5 times or 10 times bigger then Clinton's budgets ( dont know the exact math here but one guy was running a balanced budget and the other guy is running up his credit cards)
So, with the premise that Clinton is a Democrat and therefore in favor of big government and Bush is a Republican and in favor of smaller government, yet Bush spends more money ( I know about more money for the war but hasnt he gotten extra appropriations to cover all that, like 100 billion worth?)
I guess that begs the questions how did Clinton expand the government on less money? How does Bush not expand the government with more money? If he really is shrinking the government where in the hell is the extra billions of dollars going? When are we ever going to pay down the credit card bills he is running up? What would happen if we did just say **** it and defaulted on them? Would our military, teachers, cops, firefighters etc still get paid and thus keep us powerful if we went bankrupt?
Sheesh all that on just the economy I wonder what other questions I could come up with if I dug a little deeper.
