Read it for yourself. It has been discussed enough here on FR you should be familiar with it. I'm not doing your work for you.
Do a search under Patriot act.
Increased? Where? Or continued but cut back the amount? If "increase", where? and don't forget to include
where the cuts are. Again, link me!
As has been pointed out the budget has increased far more than the inflation rate. Again the budget is public record check it out.
You can't see the difference?
Between a democrat and a republican increasing spending? No I don't see a difference. The result is the same. Increased spending.
And gotten rid of some. Creating new agencies is one way he "righted the ship", by putting people in places where
we need them, for starters, and getting rid of fat.
Creating new agency's is one way of increasing government control and bloat. Both of which bush has done. Why do we need a new agency to overlook 40 agency's fighting terrorism. I'll answer that. We have 39 too many agency's fighting it. When you put your eggs in so many baskets there is bound to be some confusion and adding another agency isn't going to solve it.
Do you know the benefit of Americorps and who drew it up? Just asking.
I know you said you were new, but have you been in hiding somewhere? Americorps was clinton's make work vote buying program. Bush increased funding for it. Does that make any sense?
Putting my tax dollars where it will benefit me is not the same as the definition you use of "increase government",
which many use as a catch-all phrase for thier own agenda. You forgot to end it with the word "funding".
Which goes to prove the point I have made before. The only difference between a democrat and a republican is the federal program they want. Ever hear of personal responsibility? You can make it without government you know.
How so? Specifics?
You can't be that new. What is this thread about? Have you been reading it?
Quit being hysterical. Get a grip!
Quit playing dumb. There is nothing hysterical about my position, just the facts. When you can't defend your position you start calling people hysterical?LOL You do need edjukatin.:)

Well, thank you for pointing out I am "playing" dumb. I think.
You sounded like you supported Bush at one time, why are you dissin' him now? Why not write him? Get your voice heard.
