Let's review. First we take the amount spent on the Iraq war, add in the amout of the stimulus packages that were also supposed to get us out of recession (I used mine to help pay off my rediculously high school costs) the $700 Billion bail out package given to the banking industry...
Ok. Now we compare that to another $780 bail out package, and promises of continued spending including keeping in Iraq until 2013, revamping health care and education.
Looks like we have a tie. Both presidents have screwed the taxpayers equally.
