Josh you have an excellent argument there. There is plenty of blame to go around so now what? Pointing fingers is non-productive, it's long past time to find the areas that need fixing and just do it. Spend when it makes a difference and cut when it hasn't been working no matter whose pet project. Just throwing money at a problem isn't going to work. Saying a blanket no to anything the opposition says doesn't work either.
Apparently some people don't like facts or facing the truth. The osterage approch to politics doesn't really work. Unless your invested in the companies stealing taxes. Shouldn't we admit when there are areas we need to improve on instead of ignoring it? Like a football team that can't run the ball. You don't ignore it you take the steps needed to get better and become more efficient otherwise you continue to fail.
I agree with wynston on everything he just said. Obama is just carrying the torch that Bush lit. And yes it burns off of tax dollars and lies.
keith5000 it's not that your concerns are void it's just that aside from libertarians the right excussed tax fraud and waste on a regular basis when the tax dollars were going to people that support the republican party. Every time the republican party had a chance to prove they are the party of fiscal responsability they blocked all inquiries into tax fruad and contractor fraud.
That is 1 of the 2 main reasons I left the party. That and the whole not really being the small government party. My perception is they just like it to be big for them and their supporters and small when it comes to anything that the left wants. I'd like to see some consistancy on the issues of tax waste and fraud and not just when it exposes the Dems as the money wasting machine that we already know they are.
So where was the indignation when billions of dollars in cash went missing in Iraq? The cheap body / mobile armor? The no-bid contracts to companies that relocate offshore? What sort of "Waste, Fraud and Abuse" now beats those? I totally give up on this strip.

I don't get the argument that because the previous administration was not perfect and conservative opposition to some of their policies when unreported by the media that somehow criticism of the current administration must be voided.
