Subject: RE: BS: Obama Honeymoon lasts 3 days
Democrats -- spend money! get us out of trouble (more government!)
Republicans -- tax cuts! borrow MORE money to get us out of trouble (still more government, but without oversight or rules on spending!)

Don't be silly. BOTH parties are going to spend money (there's that $700 B-for-billion that was authorized by W, for instance, not to mention the "stimulus package" a year ago) and both borrowing it, most likely from China or the EU. And in case you missed it, Obama has ALSO proposed tax cuts.

If I'm going to bail you out from your own foolishness I really, really WANT to put regulations on you and know how you spend MY money.
