"What would President Sooner1938 have done differently?"
Numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9 - I would have vetoed ANY piece of legislation that contained ANY earmarked spending.
Number 10 - I would NOT have invaded Iraq which, after all, did not constitute a serious threat to U.S. security interests.
I'd agree on 1-9.
But number 10 sounds like it comes straight out of the Democrat Playbook as written by Michael Moore.
Tell me why exactly Iraq wasn't a threat.
Something tells me you would have had trouble ever getting elected President.
