Aren't we all surprised?? Obama is such a hypocrite! A few of our locals will regale us with all sorts of praise for all the good he's done and all the progress he's made and how much better things are thanks to his record of more debt than ALL the administrations prior to his combined. I guess it's good to be blind sometimes.

But don't forget that a lot of that money is being spent to maintain things too, like the department of homeland security, which controls the tsa who tells congress to stick it when they request documentation for the scanners at the airports to ensure they are safe.

Maybe we need to look at why our congress approves the budgets that have the military and the DHS almost in parity on the same amount of money.

Money is also being spent to shore up our allies who are not our allies and do a lot of nice things to people who have nothing to do with our security.

Remember that it is the same people in congress who is doing this, the president can only request the money, congress has to decide to give it to them. Just think if we had someone like GIngrich in the WH, wow we would not see the end of it.

I bet we could cut down on a lot of debt if we closed and defended our borders.
Yesterday i was the only truck to arrive into a remote Border patrol check point in New Mexico.
the BP agent had one of those grass sniffing dog. it was very windy, so the dog just stood there with his tail to the wind, instead of doing his job.
the agent then asked me what dose it say on the side of the trailer, so i said OOIDA,
he looked a bit confused and asked me what it meant.
i told him " those are the good trucking guys, the ones watching WDC to make sure they don't comes up with all of those stupid new regulations that makes no seance,
like spending billions on Border patrol instead of building a border..."

the dog decided it's better to face the wind...
