Thomas over at Blue Indiana, in response to THIS post, posed the question we've been hearing from a bunch of Democrats lately. How could Republicans who spent a bunch of money on the War in Iraq, etc. now complain loudly when President Obama increases the defecit.
Congressman Burton has spoken to this issue several times, not to mention opposing at least two of President Bush's largest spending programs (Medicare Part D and the No Child Left Behind Act). In addition, along with the Republican Study Committee that he founded, Dan pushed for a number of spending CUTS that were not supported by the Democrat Party.
Either way, its clear that if Republicans spent too much between 2001-2005, when they and Bush were in control, President Obama has set new records- making the Republicans look like "coupon-cutting grocery shoppers." Take a look at a great video to illustrate the case...
