We should never have given tens of billions of dollars to the effort. It wasn’t our government’s money to give in the first place.

Fair enough -- a perfectly defensible position. In fact, I agree. Bush's program actually accomplished what liberals only talked about and a liberal has acknowledged it. That was really my point.

I didn't intend to imply approval.

I wasn’t trying to give you a hard time, even though it sounded like it. I just get tired of our leaders (whichever side of the isle) acting like tens of billions is nothing more than pocket change.
