<br>
Here's a good explanation of the nonsense.<br>

And why I won't defend what he said is because Congress controls the purse. Congress needs to take responsibility for its spending.<br>

Also, you racist shitbag, "Obama" is Kenyan, not Swahili.

      <![CDATA[@gast: "as a Senator he called Bush "unpatriotic" and thus harmful to the country, for spending less."<br>
<br>
Which is bullshit, since of all the things GWB did, "spending less" was not one of them.<br>
<br>
In fact, gast, Obama said GWB's deficit spending was unpatriotic.
