What kills me is that we're bankrupting ourselves trying to save the world from each other. All this debt can't be sustained. Before we even dream about deploying US soldiers somewhere other than where they're directly needed to protect the US (and not just it's interests), we need to make sure that the budget is not just balanced, but functional. None of the political parties have managed to pull off that trick in the last two decades, and I hold them equally responsible.
But if you criticize Bush you're a dirty Democrat, Obama and you're a racist Republican.
