Here's the federal budget for 2007. It's hundreds of pages long, so I'm sure I missed a lot, but it looks to me like spending for entitlements, even under 43, has eclipsed defense spending by one mother of a lot.

Yes it has, but look at it as a % of the total...I'm NOT HAPPY either with the increase in discretional spending, it's just $$$ to the black hole of waste and corruption.
We must, however, look at the entire context and not just one side.
