Nope I don’t Capiche are you saying that if a terrorist blows up a city that the federal government should not spend taxpayer money to set things right?

You have taken the small government business a little too far. Our government does exist to protect the people, Bush spent Trillions to keep us safe, Obama on the other hand is recklessly spending money on things like Stimulus that didn’t work and healthcare that won’t work and isn’t what the people want.

There are huge differences in Why a president spends money, Again my point is Bush spend money because HE HAD TO.

OBAMA SPENDS MONEY BECAUSE HE WANTS TO

Capiche?

Who blew up a city?

Our government does exist to protect the people

There is a very fine shade of difference between "protecting" the people and merely providing for a common defense.

As far as I am concerned, the Federal government failed on all counts on September 11, 2001.

Bush spent Trillions to keep us safe

How many of those trillions were used for nation-building and foreign aid give-aways?

How many of those trillions were used for his pet projects that expanded the Federal government, e.g., Medicare Part D, No Child Left Behind?

Obama on the other hand is recklessly spending money on things like Stimulus that didn’t work

The first stimulus in 2008 was authorized by Bush.

It didn't work either.

I don't care any more WHY you are spending MY future money.

I do care that you stop spending MY future money, PERIOD.

If you want to engage in significant military action around the world that includes nation-building, then stop perpetrating accounting chicanery on the American electorate and directly increase taxes to pay for the war instead of indirectly increasing taxes via deficit spending and long-term inflation.
