I'll give you a small example: $492,092,898,818. You know, the cost of the Iraq war. The war that was going on as taxes were cut.

So let's compare:
Republicans - don't tax and spend like crazy, the budget surplus becomes a deficit the likes of which the world has never seen
Democrats - do tax and spend a lot less, the budget deficit becomes a large surplus and we can afford to spend money on things like levees.

Huh, go figure.
