Obama is foolishly walking in the footsteps of FDR, ignoring his oath to defend the Constitution in the name of constitutionally unauthorized federal spending like FDR did.

Obama is not only proposing $90 billion in foreign aid, for example, but he is also proposing $210 for new jobs, the federal government essentially rescuing the overtaxed people from the federal government with their own tax dollars.

Obama Proposes $210 Billion for New Jobs
Again, the problem with FDR is that he scandalously ignored the Founder's requirement for constitutionally enumerated federal powers in order to start his New Deal programs, particularly enumerated powers which reasonably justify federal spending.

This post (<-click), while addressing a tax related thread, explains in more detail why misguided, spending-happy politicians like Obama are foolishly following in the footsteps of FDR's dirty politics.

The people need to wise up to politicians like Obama who are ignoring their oaths to defend the Constitution, sending them home instead of trying to put people like him in the Oval Office.

Ranting about Obama the socialist, isn’t doing any good.

The part that bites my butt is this “rushed through by voice vote” and the “passed by voice vote”. That took Republican cooperation! Anyone of those sorry bastards could have said they wanted a recorded vote and it would have to be done. The Democrats wouldn’t have any options once one person, Democrat or Republican asks for the recorded vote.

This isn’t a measly build a bridge to nowhere Bill. This sob puts a permanent tax on your wages, and mine for eternity. This Bill gives the politicians UN permission to try to take away our 2nd Amendment.
